Raindrip Inc R283DT Soaker Drip Tubing 50 Ft 1/4 in 0.5 Gph

Product Description

The RAINDRIP INC R283DT is a 50-foot coil of 1/4-inch polyethylene soaker drip tubing designed for low-volume irrigation applications. Built-in turbulent-flow drippers are spaced every 12 inches along the tubing and deliver 0.5 gallons per hour (GPH) per emitter. The non-pressure-compensating design is suited for flat or gently sloping terrain where inlet pressure remains consistent. Landscape irrigation professionals, nursery technicians, and experienced DIYers install this tubing as part of drip irrigation systems to deliver water directly to plant root zones with minimal runoff or evaporation loss.

This tubing is commonly used in residential and light commercial drip irrigation layouts including garden beds, row crops, container plantings, and nursery benches. The 12-inch dripper spacing provides even moisture distribution across a planting row. At 50 feet per coil with a package quantity of 10 coils, this product is suited for larger installations or supply stocking. The polyethylene construction offers flexibility for routing around beds and obstacles without kinking under normal installation conditions.

Installation Notes

Drip irrigation tubing of this type is typically installed by landscape irrigation professionals or experienced DIYers following local water authority guidelines. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before making connections. Secure tubing with stakes or clips to prevent displacement, and verify that inlet pressure is within the operating range appropriate for non-pressure-compensating emitters. Avoid kinking tubing during installation, as kinks will restrict flow to downstream drippers.
