Barbed Reducing Elbow

Turn Corners. Reduce Line Size. All in One.

The Barbed Reducing Elbow is a specialized fitting designed to streamline your irrigation layout by performing two tasks at once: making a clean 90-degree turn and stepping down your mainline size. This fitting is most commonly used to transition from a larger 3/4" poly tubing header to a 1/2" zone line, eliminating the need for separate couplers or reducers.

Constructed from durable gray PVC, these insert irrigation fittings feature sharp, high-grip barbs that "bite" into the interior wall of the tubing. This creates a tight, leak-resistant seal that holds firm even under the pressure fluctuations common in agricultural and residential drip systems. By combining the turn and the reduction into a single unit, you reduce the number of potential leak points in your garden.

Complete Your System

Complete your corner transitions with these essential installation accessories:

• Stainless Steel Clamps: Mandatory for securing barbed fittings to prevent leaks.
• 3/4" Poly Tubing: The high-flow distribution line for your system header.
• 1/2" Poly Tubing: The standard distribution line for zone runs and row crops.
• Hold Downs: Essential for keeping your corners flat and preventing tubing from lifting.
• Tubing Cutter: Ensure clean, leak-proof cuts on every connection.
