The 1/4" Barbed Elbow is the professional solution for navigating tight corners with your micro-irrigation system. Designed to create a precise 90-degree turn, this fitting prevents 1/4" micro tubing from kinking or restricting flow when bending around pot rims, raised bed corners, or architectural features.
These essential irrigation fittings feature dual sharp barbs that securely grip the inside of standard micro tubing without the need for glue or clamps. Whether you are building a complex container garden or routing supply lines along a deck rail, these elbows ensure your system looks neat and functions perfectly under pressure.

Install in seconds without tools:
Step 1: Cut the Tubing
Using scissors or a tubing cutter, make a clean, square cut in your 1/4" micro tubing where you need the turn.
Step 2: Insert First Barb
Push one end of the elbow firmly into the first section of tubing. Ensure the tubing slides completely over the barb.
Step 3: Connect Second Line
Push the second section of tubing onto the other end of the elbow to complete the 90-degree turn.
Tip:
If the tubing is cold or difficult to attach, dip the end in warm water for a few seconds to soften it before inserting the barb.
