The 1/2" Easy Loc x 1/2" Female Pipe Tee is the professional's choice for integrating threaded components into a drip irrigation system. It allows you to run a continuous line of 1/2" poly tubing while providing a dedicated 1/2" Female Pipe Thread (FPT) outlet in the center.
This fitting is most commonly used to install 1/2" MPT Sprinklers or Risers directly into a mainline run. Instead of cutting the line and gluing complex PVC manifolds, you can simply insert this tee, screw in your sprinkler, and lock down the tubing—all in a matter of minutes.
Understanding compatibility is key. This fitting connects tubing to a threaded accessory.

Follow these steps to ensure a leak-proof connection.
Step 1: Install the Threaded Component First
Apply thread seal tape to your 1/2" MPT riser or sprinkler. Screw it into the center FPT outlet of the tee. Hand-tighten firmly. Since this tee does not swivel, you must attach the threaded item before connecting the tubing.
Step 2: Prepare Tubing
Cut your 1/2" mainline tubing where you want the tee to be located. Ensure cuts are square and clean.
Step 3: Connect Tubing
Rotate the Easy Loc locking collars backwards on both sides. Push your 1/2" poly tubing over the barbs until they hit the stops.
Step 4: Lock it Down
Twist the locking collars forward (over the tubing) to clamp the fitting in place.
