Description

90-Degree Turns Made Simple. Professional Reliability.

The 1/2" Easy Loc Elbow is the most reliable way to navigate corners and obstacles in your drip system layout. Designed to connect two pieces of 1/2" poly tubing at a sharp 90-degree angle, this fitting prevents the kinking that often occurs when bending tubing too tightly. Whether you are routing water from your water timer around a raised bed or turning a corner on a patio, this elbow ensures smooth, unrestricted flow.

As one of our top-rated irrigation fittings, the Easy Loc Elbow features a locking nut design that is far superior to standard compression fittings. Instead of struggling to force tubing into a tight hole, you simply slide the tubing onto the barb and tighten the collar. This creates a secure, leak-proof seal that can withstand pressure spikes and can be easily removed or reused if your garden needs change.

Why Choose Easy Loc Technology?
  • Leak-Proof Seal: The locking collar screws over the tubing, compressing it tightly against the internal barb for a connection that holds even under fluctuating pressure.
  • Ergonomic Design: Large, textured nuts provide excellent grip, allowing for easy hand-tightening without the need for wrenches or tools.
  • Fully Reusable: Mistakes happen and layouts change. Unlike compression fittings which must be cut out, Easy Loc fittings can be unscrewed and reused season after season.
  • Durable Construction: Molded from chemical-resistant polypropylene with UV stabilizers, ensuring the fitting won't crack or degrade in the sun.

How to Install: A Step-by-Step Guide

Follow these steps for a secure 90-degree connection.

Step 1: Prep the Tubing
Cut your 1/2" poly tubing cleanly and squarely at the point where you need to turn the corner.

Step 2: Loosen the Collars
Rotate the Easy Loc locking collars backwards (towards the center of the elbow) to expose the barbs.

Step 3: Insert Tubing
Push the tubing ends over the exposed 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) until tight. This compresses the tubing onto the barb for a permanent hold.

✔ Compatibility Check

This fitting is designed for:

  • Standard 1/2" Tubing: Fits tubing with an Outside Diameter (OD) of roughly .700".
  • Not for Drip Tape: This fitting does not work with flat drip tape (T-Tape, Aqua-Traxx).
  • Not for Funny Pipe: While it may fit some swing pipe, it is specifically designed for PE irrigation mainline.
  • Not for 1/2" IPS Tubing: This fitting is incompatible with Iron Pipe Size (IPS) tubing which has a different diameter.

Complete Your System

Ensure your installation goes smoothly with these compatible parts:

  • 1/2" Poly Tubing: The standard mainline tubing compatible with this elbow.
  • Hold Downs: Use stakes to secure the tubing on either side of the corner.
  • Easy Loc End Cap: Quickly close off the end of your line with the same reusable technology.
  • Punch Tool: Essential for inserting emitters into your mainline after layout.
