15 Count Bulk Package.Each dripper is adjustable by turning the top dial to water from 0 to 10 GPH and will release drops of water spraying up to 8 individual streams of water in a 0-2-ft diameter
When increasing the water output, be sure not to over rotate the top, as it can come off and become lost. Replacement caps (MLD-STACAP) can be purchased separately
Use these adjustable dripper stakes to gently water patio and potted plants or landscapes
Install these drippers directly into the 1/2-in poly tubing by first snapping a hole using either of our punch tools (MLA-51, MLA-TOOL)
If you punch a hole in the wrong place or want to relocate the dripper, then simply remove it from the 1/2-in poly and snap in one of our goof plugs (MLA-51G)
These drippers can also be installed by running a piece of 1/4-in vinyl tubing to the plant from the 1/2-in poly tubing using the enclosed 1/4-in barbed couplers, then by pushing in the dripper at the other end of the 1/4-in vinyl next to the plant
After the last dripper is installed, turn on the water and allow the flow of water to clean out any debris that may have entered the line during installation
Our 1/4-in support stakes (MLT-DST) can be used to securely hold the 1/4-in vinyl tubing and 1 GPH dripper near the plant
Also use our 1/4-in tees (MLT-TEE) and elbows (MLT-ATE) to run the 1/4-in vinyl tubing in opposing directions or in tight corners to supply water to these drippers.
(15 Adjustable Drippers per bag)
Drippers and Drip Tubing should NEVER be buried underground but can be covered lightly with Mulch.
