Orbit 67301 1/4-Inch by 100-Foot Black Vinyl Univeral Drip System Tubing

I like this Orbit tubing for the delivery runs to individual plants after the pressure controlling emitters.I have had this tubing blow off the coupling that's attached to the main lines (1/2") at 26psi !!The commercial (RainBird) tubing is stiffer and much harder to press in your fittings, especially if your hands are getting tired, if you have any arthritic conditions, or if you're just becoming an older fart like me!Hint...Have your tubing sitting in the sunlight to make installation of hardware even easier.

This tubing has a slight brushed texture to it, making it easier to push connectors in. Not too stiff or too floppy.

The tube was very stiff and hard to connect to my irrigation pieces. I read that soaking the end of the tibe in hot water for 10 seconds softens it so its easier to stretch. I soaked for about 20 seconds and then I was able to use it.

Works as intended

Needed to replace 5 yr old tubing unwavering system. Perfect!

Unfortunately I installed the tubing before trying it out to see if it worked. A few minutes in the sun release the tight coil into a straight line. After the tubing was tacked down it was time to install the fittings at intervals. The tubing was so hard and inflexible the fittings would not stay in the tubing. The process of pushing the fittings stretched the stiff tubing and there was no spring to hold the fittings.

I needed more of this tubing and it fits perfectly and works great.

It should work I wish it was more like rubber that was real brittle soft thin plastic

This tubing did the job and was easy to install by softening the end of the tube in hot water before attachng to the riser and the drip head.

Very Ridgid poky type hose. Was expecting rubber or silicone.

There was fifty feet and it is the size advertised. We will see how long it lasts. Nothing more can be said.
