Description
Antelco 4mm Hypodermic Adaptor for LDPE Irrigation Pipe
The Antelco 4mm Hypodermic Adaptor provides a simple and reliable way to connect
4mm micro irrigation pipe directly to 13mm or 16mm LDPE supply pipe. Manufactured
by Antelco in Australia from high-quality UV-stabilised materials, these adaptors
are designed for long-term performance in irrigation systems.
The sharp hypodermic barb allows the adaptor to be inserted directly into a
pre-punched hole in LDPE pipe, creating a secure connection for feeding water
to drippers, sprayers, micro jets and other irrigation devices supplied by
4mm micro pipe.
