The 1/4" Two-Way Goof Plug is the versatile "Swiss Army knife" of irrigation repairs. Featuring a unique double-sided design, this plug offers two different sized barbs on a single unit: a standard barb for sealing regular punched holes, and an oversized barb for plugging holes that have become stretched or enlarged over time.
These essential irrigation fittings typically come in a connected "rack" (strip) for easy handling. Simply twist one off when you need it. whether you are fixing a mistake in your polyethylene mainline or capping the end of a 1/4" micro tubing run, this plug ensures you have the right fit for the job every time.

Choosing the right end for the leak:
Step 1: Test the Small End
Try inserting the smaller barb into the hole first. If it snaps in tightly and seals the leak, you are done.
Step 2: Try the Large End
If the small end feels loose or water still drips out under pressure, pull it out and flip the plug over. Insert the larger barb. This slightly oversized end is designed to stretch the hole for a fresh seal.
Step 3: Capping Tubing
To use as an end cap, simply push the micro tubing onto either end of the plug. The "dumbbell" shape acts as a convenient handle for removal later.
Tip:
Keep a rack of these in your pocket whenever you are working on your system. They are the fastest way to fix accidental punctures.
Ensure this fits your repair needs:
