Eco-Friendly Garden Design: Sustainable Materials for a Greener Yard
Jul 9th 2026
The Netafim Arrow Dripper (10-Pack) is a stake-tipped micro-irrigation dripper designed to guide water precisely into pots, grow bags, and containers. It's used with 1/8" micro poly tubing as part of a 4-Way Flat Assembly (DMWASS) or 4-Way Stackable Assembly (DMWST), which split the output of a single Netafim Woodpecker emitter to water 4 or 8 containers at once. The drop-leading stake anchors gently at the soil surface, making it a go-to choice for greenhouses, nurseries, and home container gardens.
Each dripper is rated for a maximum working pressure of 2.0 bar (about 29 PSI) and is available in 1.6 or 2.3 L/H (roughly 0.42–0.61 GPH) flow versions, measured at 1.0 bar. Its turbulent labyrinth flow path resists clogging, and it inserts directly into 1/8" (3mm x 5mm) micro tubing. Netafim recommends 130-micron (120-mesh) filtration to keep the narrow flow path running clean. Note: This dripper isn't pressure-compensating on its own—consistent output across multiple containers depends on even pressure at the Woodpecker emitter feeding it.

What is an Arrow Dripper used for?
Arrow drippers guide water from 1/8" micro tubing directly into a pot, grow bag, or container, typically as part of a multi-outlet assembly connected to a Woodpecker emitter.
The angled stake keeps the tubing in place and directs the drip stream right to the base of the plant, minimizing runoff on container gardens, greenhouse benches, and nursery pots.
Can I use Arrow Drippers without a DMWASS or DMWST assembly?
Yes. Arrow Drippers insert into any 1/8" micro tubing line, so they can also be used individually if you're building a custom multi-outlet setup.
That said, they're most commonly sold as replacement parts for the pre-assembled DMWASS and DMWST kits, which already include the tubing and drippers configured for 4 or 8 containers.
How many containers can one Woodpecker emitter water with Arrow Drippers?
A single Woodpecker emitter paired with a DMWASS 4-Way Flat Assembly can water 4 containers, or up to 8 containers when combined with a DMWST Stackable Assembly.
Keep in mind that splitting flow divides the emitter's output evenly, so a 1 GPH emitter feeding 4 outlets delivers about 1/4 GPH to each container—size your emitter's flow rate accordingly.
What filtration do I need for Arrow Drippers?
Netafim recommends 130-micron (120-mesh) filtration ahead of Arrow Drippers to prevent sediment from clogging the narrow 1/8" flow path.
A basic screen filter at the head of your system is usually sufficient for municipal or clean well water sources.
