-
Ideal for irrigation and drainage projects: perfect for sprinklers, lawn irrigation lines, and quick field repairs on the go.

Where to use
- Sprinkler and irrigation mains routes with 3/4" piping
- Repairing nicked or cracked sections in garden hose or drainage lines
- Temporary or permanent fixes in residential irrigation systems
How to install
Follow these practical steps for a reliable repair:
- Cut the damaged section of 3/4" PVC cleanly, then deburr and dry both ends.
- Insert the existing pipe into the push-to-connect end until it seats firmly.
- For the slip end, apply standard PVC primer and cement to the pipe and slide the pipe into the fitting, then hold until a secure bond forms.
- Pressurize the system and inspect for leaks. If you see a drip, allow the cement to cure fully and recheck the joint.
Tips for best results
- Ensure the slip-end joint is dry and free of debris before cementing.
- Always align the flow direction to minimize stress at the joint.
- Test the system after a full cure period to confirm a leak-free repair.
