Description

Connect 1" Lateral Lines. Fast, Secure, & Swivels.

The Hydro-Rain 1" Blu-Lock x 1" MPT Adapter is the heavy-duty solution for connecting your main 1" Blu-Lock Tubing supply lines to valves, manifolds, filters, and other threaded components. This fitting transitions from the flexible push-to-connect pipe to a standard 1" Male Pipe Thread (MPT) instantly.

Designed to replace messy glued PVC male adapters, this fitting features a unique swivel action. This allows you to thread the adapter into a valve box or manifold without having to twist the entire length of the pipe, preventing kinks and reducing installation stress.

Why Choose Blu-Lock Technology?
  • Seamless Transition: Easily adapt your 1" lateral lines to rigid threaded components with a leak-proof seal.
  • Heavy-Duty Hold: A stainless steel retainer ring grips the pipe securely. The connection is rated for high-pressure mainlines.
  • Full Swivel Action: The fitting rotates freely on the pipe even after connection, allowing you to screw the threaded end into a manifold without twisting the tubing.
  • Releasable & Reusable: Mistakes happen. Blu-Lock fittings can be unlocked and reused if you need to change your layout.
  • Eco-Friendly: No toxic glues, solvents, or primers are needed, keeping your installation clean and safe.

Understanding compatibility is key. This fitting adapts 1" tubing to 1" threads.

How to Install: A Step-by-Step Guide

Follow these steps to connect your lateral line to a threaded component.

Step 1: Install the Threaded End
Apply thread seal tape to the male threads. Screw the adapter into your valve, filter, or manifold. Hand-tighten firmly.

Step 2: Prep the Pipe
Cut your 1" Blu-Lock tubing cleanly and squarely. Ensure the end is free of dirt and debris to guarantee a perfect seal.

Step 3: Push to Connect
Insert the tubing end firmly into the Blu-Lock socket until it stops. You will feel it pass the internal grip ring.

Step 4: Verify
Pull back gently on the tubing to ensure it is locked in place. The fitting will swivel around the pipe, allowing you to position the rest of the line easily.

✔ Compatibility Check

Check your sizes carefully:

  • Blu-Lock Side: Fits 1" Hydro-Rain Blu-Lock Lateral Pipe.
  • Thread Side: Fits standard 1" Female Pipe Threads (FPT).
  • It will NOT fit 3/4" or 1/2" Blu-Lock Tubing.
