Winter Garden Care for Your Garden: Essential Maintenance Tasks and Tips
Jan 26th 2026
The 1/2" Dura Plastics Barbed Elbow is the professional solution for navigating tight corners in your irrigation layout. When bending 1/2" poly tubing beyond its natural radius, it can kink and restrict water flow. This 90-degree insert fitting eliminates that risk, allowing you to create clean, right-angle turns around building corners, garden beds, or hardscapes.
Molded from durable Schedule 40 PVC, these elbows feature sharp, high-grip barbs that hold fast inside the tubing. Whether you are running a standard garden line or a commercial zone, this fitting ensures a permanent, high-flow connection that withstands the elements.
Match the elbow size to the Inside Diameter (ID) of your tubing.

Step 1: Cut the Tubing
Cut your 1/2" mainline tubing where the turn needs to happen. Ensure the cut is clean and square using pipe cutters.
Step 2: Add Clamps
Slide a hose clamp onto each section of tubing before inserting the fitting.
Step 3: Insert the Elbow
Push the tubing onto the barbed ends of the elbow. If the fit is tight, soften the tubing ends with warm water or sunlight. Ensure the tubing covers all the barbs.
Step 4: Secure
Slide the clamps into position over the barbed area and tighten them with a nut driver or screwdriver.
