How to Save Time with a Drip Irrigation System
Jan 8th 2026
The 5/8" Teco Tape End Plug (50 Pack) provides commercial growers and large-scale gardeners with a reliable, cost-effective method for terminating runs of 5/8" drip tape. Designed with a positive locking nut mechanism, these fittings ensure a watertight seal at the end of every row, preventing leaks and maintaining consistent system pressure.
Sold in a convenient bulk pack, these end plugs utilize secure locking nut technology, which grabs the tape from the outside and compresses it against an internal barb. This design makes installation fast and tool-free while allowing for easy removal and reuse if you need to flush the lines or reconfigure your field layout at the start of a new season.

Secure your tape ends quickly and effectively.
Step 1: Prep the Tape
Cut the end of your 5/8" drip tape cleanly and squarely using scissors or a pipe cutter. Ensure there are no jagged edges.
Step 2: Position the Nut
Rotate the locking nut on the fitting backwards (towards the body of the plug) to expose the barb underneath.
Step 3: Insert the Tape
Slide the drip tape onto the barb until it hits the stop inside the fitting. The tape should go over the barb but under the locking nut.
Step 4: Lock It Down
Twist the locking nut forward (over the tape) until tight. This compresses the tape against the barb for a leak-proof seal.
