Product Description
The NDS CEP 700 is a drip compression fitting with a male hose thread (MHT) end and an integrated cap, designed for use in low-volume drip irrigation systems. It provides a secure, leak-resistant compression connection for 5/8 inch drip tubing (0.704 inch OD) and terminates the line with a threaded cap to hold system pressure and prevent debris intrusion. This fitting is typically installed by irrigation contractors, landscape professionals, and experienced DIYers working on residential or light commercial drip systems. The compact, lightweight design at 0.04 pounds makes it easy to handle during field installations.
This fitting is suited for drip irrigation mainline and lateral tubing applications where a compression-style connection is preferred over barbed fittings. It is commonly used at the end of a drip line run or at a control point where the line needs to be capped off cleanly. The MHT thread allows direct connection to standard hose-thread components. Typical installations include garden beds, tree rings, row crops, and landscape borders served by low-pressure drip systems.

Compatibility
Designed as an OEM-style drip irrigation compression fitting for standard 5/8 inch drip tubing with a 0.704 inch outer diameter, compatible with systems using male hose thread connections.
Installation Notes
Installation is typically performed by irrigation technicians or qualified landscape contractors. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before cutting tubing or making fitting connections. Ensure the tubing end is cut cleanly and squarely before inserting into the compression fitting to achieve a proper seal. Follow all applicable local plumbing and irrigation codes when installing or modifying drip systems.
