Connecting a long run of drip tape to a faucet or hose timer can be frustrating if you have to twist the entire line to get it tight. The Tape Loc x Female Hose Swivel Adapter solves this problem with a free-spinning collar.
This adapter creates a direct link between your standard 3/4" Male Hose Thread (MHT) water source (like a spigot, garden hose, or filter) and your 5/8" drip tape. The swivel action ensures a tight seal without twisting or kinking your delicate tape line.
