Rain Bird ET/1PK25S Drip Irrigation Emitter Installation and Removal Tool (Pack of 2)

Just what I needed for some "do-it-yourself" irrigation work in my yard. Let's me install tubing and emitters quite easily. I use it a lot and haven't had any issues with it.

This thing works so buy one if you are in the hose cutting business. After trying with a sharp knife and sharp scissors and basically collapsing the end of the hose which then makes it useless for fitting into connectors, I got this. End of problem.

I am learning how to repair my own system and I saw this when I was buying the coupling and figured I’d try it out. The brand of coupling I bought on Amazon didn’t fit tight in the tool so the couple just popped out, but I was able to use a nickel in the top slot to keep the coupling from moving (see image) and it gave me the perfect leverage to push the coupling into my old soaker hose. I tried everything else before I had the idea. The tool is strong and well made. If you buy the rainbird couple it probably fits perfect. Great cheap tool to have on hand to make the job easier. Due to the fit of the coupling I gave it 4 stars, I’m guessing if you had the rainbird coupling it would probably be a 5 Star.

MDFA! Make Drip Fun Again! Installing a drip system was never too bad but it also wasn’t fun. This makes it fun. So simple to install emitters. So simple to cut tubing. You can do it all with one tool. And the other purple thingy that pushes the fittings on? Wow. No more heating up the tubing. You could push it on before with some effort and hopefully not bend it, but now you can just wham bam thank you ma’am!Both of these tools make “drippin” fun.

Very good all round.

This works ok, but the punch spike makes a massive hole that allows water to spurt out around the connectors...kind of wasteful. The spike could be a much smaller diameter. The cutter for the hose works well.

Make easy work installing Rainbird fitting

This tool is sturdy and saves a lot of time and pain when inserting drip emitters into plastic tubing. Trying to push an emitter into a tube without this tool is time consuming and painful for your hand. With this tool, it takes maybe 2 seconds to install an emitter. and it is pain-free. This is well worth the cost.
