16 mm Lock-Ring Offtake Tee for Irrigation Hose

A branch connection for your drip layout

A tall central hose adapter connects above the two opposing drip line outlets. The black body has a lever-shaped top and blue locking rings at both side connections. Use this layout when the hose connection must feed runs in two directions from one takeoff position.

Match every connection

Check the hose adapter profile, sealing arrangement and required opening independently from the side outlets. The center connection is not identified by the 16 mm drip line size. Confirm that your hose and takeoff fitting are designed to work together before making an opening.

The listed drip line connection is 16 mm. Match the line type and wall construction to the locking-ring ends as well as checking the diameter. Plan the line route so that the fitting sits without pulling, twisting or sharply bending the connected tubing.

Prepare and install

Lay out the branch positions before cutting any line. Make clean, square cuts and keep loose particles away from the connection surfaces. Flush the supply line before completing the connections so that installation debris does not travel farther into the irrigation system. Seat each line end fully and secure its locking ring according to the connection arrangement.

Check during the first watering run

Start the irrigation supply gradually and inspect all three connection points while water is flowing. Look for drips around the line ends and center connection, and confirm that the connected runs receive water. If a joint leaks, stop the supply and check alignment and seating before running the system again. Keep the fitting accessible for seasonal inspection and for any later change to the branch layout.
