How to Design a Winter Garden: Color, Texture, and Cold-Hardy Plants

The 1/2" Easy Loc Coupler is the fastest, most reliable way to connect two pieces of 1/2" Poly Tubing. Whether you are extending a mainline run to reach a new garden bed or repairing a cut in your existing line, this fitting ensures a secure connection without the need for clamps or glue.
As one of our best-selling irrigation fittings, the Easy Loc coupler features locking collars on both ends. These collars tighten over the tubing, creating a compression seal that holds tight under pressure but can be easily unlocked and reused if you ever need to change your system layout.
Confirm your tubing size before ordering.

Follow these steps for a leak-free connection.
Step 1: Clean the Cuts
Ensure both ends of the 1/2" tubing you want to join are cut cleanly and are free of dirt or jagged edges.
Step 2: Unlock the Fitting
Rotate the locking collars on both ends backwards (towards the center of the fitting) to expose the barbs.
Step 3: Insert Tubing
Push the tubing ends over the barbs until they hit the internal stops. You may need to wiggle the tubing slightly to get it fully seated.
Step 4: Lock it Down
Twist the locking collars forward over the tubing. Hand-tighten firmly to secure the connection.
Ensure this coupler fits your system:
