Rain Bird X43000 Easy Fit Compression Coupling 16-17mm

Product Description

The RAIN BIRD X43000 is an Easy Fit compression coupling designed to join 16 to 17mm tubing in low-voltage irrigation and drip systems. The compression fitting design allows for a tool-free, hand-tightened connection that creates a secure, leak-resistant joint without solvent cements or specialized crimping equipment. Weighing just 0.06 pounds, this lightweight coupling is suited for residential and light commercial drip irrigation installations where quick, reliable tubing connections are required. Irrigation technicians and landscape contractors will find it well matched for field repairs and new system builds alike.

This coupling is intended for use with 16 to 17mm diameter poly tubing commonly found in drip and micro-irrigation systems. It fits inline between two tubing runs, serving as a repair coupling, an extension connector, or a splice point when reconfiguring drip line layouts. Its compact size makes it easy to carry in quantity for service calls where on-the-spot tubing repairs are common.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified irrigation technician or licensed contractor following local codes. Before servicing any irrigation line, shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure. Insert tubing fully into each end of the coupling until seated, then hand-tighten the compression nut to complete the joint. Inspect for leaks when the system is repressurized before returning the system to service.
