FAQs

What size pipe do these connectors fit?

These connectors are specifically designed for 13/16mm LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene) water supply pipes.

What types of connectors are included in the pack?

The pack includes a mix of 10 essential connectors: bungs, tee joiners, elbow joiners, and straight joiners.

Are these connectors suitable for high-pressure systems?

These connectors are generally suitable for standard garden irrigation pressures. For very high-pressure applications, it is recommended to use pipe clamps for added security.

How do I ensure a leak-proof connection?

Push the pipe firmly onto the barbed end of the connector until it is fully seated. Ensure the pipe is the correct size and not damaged. For extra security, a pipe clamp can be used.

Can I use these connectors with PVC pipes?

No, these connectors are designed exclusively for 13/16mm LDPE pipes and are not compatible with PVC or other types of piping.

How should I care for these connectors?

Periodically check connections for leaks. Clean any debris from the connectors and pipes, and store them in a dry place when not in use to maximize their lifespan.

What is the material of these connectors?

The connectors are crafted from high-quality materials designed for durability and reliable performance in outdoor irrigation use.

Troubleshooting

Connector leaks at the pipe junction.

Ensure the pipe is fully inserted into the connector's barbed end. Check that the pipe is the correct size (13/16mm LDPE) and free from damage. Consider using a pipe clamp for extra security if the connection is under higher pressure.

Difficulty inserting the pipe into the connector.

Ensure the pipe end is clean and not deformed. If the pipe is stiff, briefly warming the end of the pipe with warm water (not hot) can make it more pliable for easier insertion.

Connector does not fit the pipe.

Verify that your pipe is indeed 13/16mm LDPE. These connectors are specifically designed for this size and type and will not fit metric, imperial, or rigid PVC pipes.

Connector breaks during installation.

Handle connectors with care. Avoid excessive force. If a connector breaks, replace it with a new one from the pack and ensure the pipe end is smooth before re-attempting installation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure you have 13/16mm LDPE water supply pipes.
  2. Select the appropriate connector type (bung, tee, elbow, straight) for your desired connection.
  3. Firmly push the LDPE pipe onto the barbed end of the connector until it is fully seated.
  4. For added security on straight joiners or tee connectors, a pipe clamp (sold separately) can be used, though often not required for typical low-pressure garden systems.

Compatibility:

  • Primary Compatibility: 13/16mm LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene) water supply pipes.
  • Not Compatible: Other pipe sizes (e.g., 1/2 inch, 3/4 inch), rigid PVC pipes, or other non-LDPE tubing.

Care:

  • Periodically check connections for any signs of wear or leakage, especially after seasonal changes or prolonged use.
  • Clean any debris from the connectors and pipes before re-installing seasonally.
  • Store connectors in a dry place when not in use to prolong their lifespan.
