If you are going to customize your own micro-sprayer, you should probably order the threaded 1/4 inch micro-flow because getting the stiff 1/4inch riser requires far more effoct with the barbed vs. the threaded. The only work-around for the barbed is running the riser under very hot water to soften it up. For me, in the future, I would prefer the easier path and purchase the threaded on both sides.
These valves will enable selection or turn off of the flow to 1/4 inch dripper sections allowing on off control for that leg. Nice to have if you are managing many beds and want to save water on harvested beds no longer needing irrigation. The arrows on the valve stem are a little hard to see, so use with care. also the barbed end is very sharp. Be careful.
Total outstanding support
I've never been disappointed in a product from Dripworks and these elbows are no exception.
Dripworks is amazing. Very happy with their prices and customer service !
I love these valves. They are easy to install and allow me to regulate the water in my beds according to the needs of different plants. Perfect!
I get a 20 or 50 package of these with about every order. They go at the beginning and end of every 1/4" soaker dripline, this makes it a breeze to shut off individual lines, or to flush them frequently, Good for any 1/4" sprayer or Ein Dor sprinkler as well!
So happy I found DripWorks! Everything I buy from this company works well, is reasonably priced, and is shipped quickly. Unless some drastic changes happen with this company, it is 100% reliable as are their products.
I ordered 50 of these and were shipped out fast and I was able to save money. Thanks
These are great for flushing out quarter inch drip line tubing.
