The 1/2" Easy Loc End Cap is the most convenient solution for terminating a run of 1/2" poly tubing. Unlike simple figure-8 plugs, this professional-grade fitting features a threaded removable cap at the end. This design allows you to easily flush out sediment or debris from your system at the beginning and end of the season without removing the entire fitting from the tubing.
As one of our most popular irrigation fittings, it combines a secure, leak-proof hold with effortless maintenance. The "Easy Loc" locking collar screws over the tubing, compressing it against the internal barb to prevent blow-offs, even under pressure or in high heat.
Key details for system planning.

Follow these steps to securely terminate your line.
Step 1: Prep the Tubing
Make a clean, square cut at the end of your 1/2" poly tubing. Ensure the end is free of dirt or jagged edges.
Step 2: Unlock the Fitting
Rotate the Easy Loc locking collar backwards (towards the flush cap) to expose the internal barb. Do not remove the nut completely.
Step 3: Insert Tubing
Push the tubing firmly over the barb until it hits the internal stop. A slight twisting motion helps seat the tubing fully.
Step 4: Lock it Down
Twist the locking collar forward (over the tubing) to compress the connection. Hand-tighten firmly. To flush, simply unscrew the small cap at the end.
Ensure this fits your setup:
