Rain Bird T22-50S Drip Distribution Tubing, 1/4"

Easy to use. Saves water. Durable over several seasons. I have repurchased several times. Has a bit of a textured surface. Much easier to put on to the little barbed tips vs the smooth type.

I usually use scientific tubing, the generic clear stuff, because I never knew anything different until I wanted something stiffer. The generic clear tubing is awesome for low pressures and drip watering a lot of plants because the emitters can be placed without the tubing trying to retain its shape too much and moving it after placement. This is where the Rain Bird tubing fails at, its stiff and hard, its not easily placed at the base of plants. However I favor this tubing because of its rigid factor. The Rain Bird tubing is far superior with spray emitters and higher pressures. With higher pressures, emitters will come flying off of the scientific tubing if they aren't super glued on there. The Rain Bird tubing holds them in place but this is also an issue because it holds them too well and I have to cut the emitters off for cleaning or changing types! However, this tubing is durable, rigid, etc, it stays upright when I mount it on cane poll while scientific/chemical tubing droops over. RainBird Pros* *Rigid and retains shape *Retains emitters *250Ft for a fair price! Cons* *Emitters have to be cut off! :( *Very stiff! Scientific Tubing pros* *May or may not be cheaper depending on where you shop. *Very pliable. *removable emitters Cons* *Emitters blow off from high pressures! *Droops over when mounted vertically. Picture included for details.

This is high-quality tubing and a great option if you are having trouble with leaks or have a higher pressure drip irrigation system. I had previously tried the more flexible and softer MXC brand, but found that it could not securely hold at joints, especially under hot sun. This Rain Bird tubing is definitely stiffer and slightly more difficult to work with, but it is very much more secure and will save you having to rip and replace the lines you thought had been easy to lay but now keep coming apart. It does tend to want to keep its cooled shape, but a little bit of flexing in the other direction straightens it out. And if you intentionally bend it, it will hold the shape. I was so frustrated by my earlier choice that I replaced it all with this and double-barbed connectors. It hasn’t given me any problems since. Even in the couple of places where I ended up having to use single-barbed connectors, this tubing has also held up fine. Those who say this tubing is difficult to work with must have extremely low water pressure or no sunlight. Otherwise, I can’t imagine being satisfied with anything less than this product.

Works perfectly.

Works great! Amazing price. Super easy to use cut and attach that’s it. Good water flow and fit all my attachments

Works great and very good quality for the price.

I use this hose to irrigate flowers in pots. I can zip tie it to the legs of the stands and it is not very noticeable. I cut different lengths and run it through the gaps in the deck boards with a manifold and timer under the deck.

This tubing is a lot tougher than most! Shouldn't have any problems with blowing off fittings! Great buy on prime!

Very original item

المره الاولى تم شراءها من امازون امريكا قبل عدة سنوات وجودته اتحدى ان تجد جوده مثلها وهو من شركة راين بيرد وصناعته اتوقع مكسكي ولا يتأثر الشمس لعدة سنوات استخدمه . مناسب للحديقة الخارجية والتقطير والري ,, ومناسب ايضاً للرذاذ في الاحواش وا لسطوح ,, وايضا مناسب لتمديد مياه التحليه في المطابخ والبرادات ,, مهما كان سعره فجودته ممتازة جداً ولا يوجد مناسب لها

Rain Bird has a good reputation for irrigation products. As a homeowner with flowers and shrubs to irrigate, I have used Rain Bird products successfully. The price on Amazon was competitive and it was at my door next day.

It is less flexible and a bit slippery, but I found it easier to connect it if you wear garden gloves, and there is no need to dip it in hot water. If you want to change the connections later, it is also very easy to disconnect this tube from the connectors, again no need to dip it in hot water. I like this one better than those flexible ones.

Great product
