The Tape Loc Tee is the essential component for branching your 5/8" Drip Tape system. This 3-way fitting allows you to split a single line of tape into two separate directions, or connect two incoming lines to a single outlet. It is perfect for creating grid layouts in raised beds or bypassing obstacles in long vegetable rows.
Featuring the reliable Tape Loc "reverse-locking" mechanism, this tee grips the thin wall of the drip tape securely without tearing it. Like all of our professional irrigation fittings for agriculture, it requires no glue or tools, allowing for quick adjustments in the field.

Secure connections in seconds.
Step 1: Prep the Tape
Cut your drip tape squarely with scissors. Important: Check inside the cut end. If there is a hard plastic emitter inside the tape within the first inch, cut it off to ensure a smooth sealing surface.
Step 2: Unlock the Tee
Rotate the locking nuts counter-clockwise (backwards towards the center of the tee) to expose the internal barbs.
Step 3: Connect Tape
Slide the drip tape over the barb until it hits the stop. Ensure the tape is not folded or creased.
Step 4: Lock it Down
Twist the locking nut clockwise (forward over the tape) until it is tight. Repeat for all connections.
