The 3/4" x 1/2" Easy Loc Reducing Elbow is a dual-purpose fitting that solves two common irrigation challenges at once. It allows you to make a clean 90-degree turn while simultaneously transitioning from 3/4" Mainline Tubing down to a 1/2" distribution line.
This fitting is perfect for routing water from a larger supply header into smaller garden beds or rows. By combining the elbow and reducer into a single unit, you eliminate the need for extra couplers and potential leak points, ensuring a smooth, unrestricted flow path for your system.
Understanding compatibility is key. This fitting connects two different sizes of tubing.

Follow these steps to ensure a leak-proof connection on both tubing sizes.
Step 1: Prepare Tubing
Cut both your 3/4" and 1/2" polyethylene tubing squarely. Ensure the cuts are clean and free of burrs.
Step 2: Unlock the Fittings
Rotate the locking collars on both ends of the elbow backwards (towards the center) to expose the internal barbs. Do not remove the nuts completely.
Step 3: Connect Tubing
Match the tubing size to the correct port (Large nut = 3/4", Small nut = 1/2"). Push the tubing firmly over the barb until it hits the stop.
Step 4: Lock it Down
Twist the locking collars forward (over the tubing) to clamp the connection in place. Hand-tighten firmly.
Check your tubing sizes carefully:
