Efficiently water multiple rows or create complex grid layouts with the Tape Loc Tee. This essential fitting allows you to split a single line of 5/8" drip tape into two separate directions, perfect for navigating around obstacles or maximizing coverage in wider garden beds.
Designed to connect three pieces of drip tape in a "T" configuration, this fitting features three independent locking nuts. This ensures a secure, leak-proof seal at every connection point, maintaining consistent pressure across all branches of your system.
Understanding compatibility is key to a successful installation. The Tape Loc system is engineered exclusively for flat drip tape.

Step 1: Preparation
Cut the ends of all three drip tape pieces squarely with scissors. Critical Tip: Inspect the cut ends. If there is a hard plastic emitter inside the tape within the first inch of any end, cut it off.
Step 2: Unlock (Side 1)
Rotate the locking nut on the first side counter-clockwise (backwards) towards the center of the tee body to expose the barb.
Step 3: Insert (Side 1)
Slide the first piece of drip tape over the barb until it hits the plastic stop. Twist the locking nut clockwise (forward) to lock the tape in place.
Step 4: Connect Remaining Sides
Repeat the unlock, insert, and lock process for the other two connections.
Troubleshooting: If a leak appears on any side, do not use pliers. Back the nut off, check that the tape is fully seated and not folded, and retighten by hand.
This fitting is for 5/8" Drip Tape ONLY.
