Rain Bird x45003 Blank Dripline Tubing 0.5in X 250ft Brown

Product Description

The RAIN BIRD x45003 is a blank (non-emitting) dripline tubing designed for use in XF Series drip irrigation systems. It serves as a connector or extension run between zones, emitter sections, or distribution manifolds where water delivery is not needed along that segment. The tubing features a brown outer color engineered to blend with mulch, soil, and other common landscape ground covers. Measuring 0.5 inches in diameter and supplied in 250-foot coils, it gives irrigation professionals and landscapers the flexibility to customize drip system layouts without unnecessary emitter output in non-plant zones.

This tubing is suited for residential and light commercial landscape drip irrigation installations. It is commonly used alongside RAIN BIRD XF Series in-line emitter tubing, allowing installers to run blank sections where coverage is not required — such as pathways between planting beds, transitions around hardscape, or header line extensions. The brown outer color keeps the system visually unobtrusive when left on the surface or lightly covered with mulch.

Installation Notes

Drip irrigation tubing of this type is typically installed by licensed irrigation contractors or experienced landscapers following local plumbing and irrigation codes. Shut off the irrigation system and depressurize the supply line before cutting or joining tubing. Use appropriate barbed fittings and insertion tools to seat connections fully and avoid leaks. Avoid kinking the tubing during layout; use stakes or hold-down clips to keep runs flat and stable on the ground surface.
