Compact Drip Tape Takeoff Valve with Locking Nut

Start a drip tape row from a compatible supply line and control that row at the takeoff. This compact valve has a barbed inlet on one side, a locking collar for the drip tape on the other and a blue handle for manual on/off control.

Make individual rows easier to manage

Close one row while you inspect tape, replace a fitting or change the watering layout. The locking nut secures the tape at the outlet, and the short valve body keeps the connection close to the supply line rather than adding a long assembly between the header and the crop row.

Check the connection before installation

• The listed option is for 16 mm drip tape; confirm its actual tape diameter and wall thickness before fitting the locking collar.
• Match the supply-line hole to the barbed inlet and the header material. A hole size cannot be inferred from the tape diameter alone.
• Insert the inlet fully, seat the tape on the outlet and tighten the nut by hand without crushing the tape.
• Flush the supply line, open the valve and inspect the takeoff and tape joint for leaks.

Sold as one takeoff valve. Drip tape, supply tubing and hole punch are separate.
