This guide is for gardeners and landscapers using 13mm soaker hoses. The HydroSure Soaker Hose Barbed End Plug provides a crucial seal at the end of your irrigation line, ensuring optimal pressure for efficient water delivery. A potential limitation is that these plugs are specifically designed for 13mm hoses and may not fit other sizes.

These plugs are specifically designed for 13mm internal diameter soaker hoses.
Each pack contains 10 HydroSure Soaker Hose Barbed End Plugs.
Yes, they are made from UV resistant LDPE materials, which helps them withstand outdoor conditions.
These are designed for soaker hoses. While they might fit some drip lines, their primary use and optimal performance are with 13mm soaker hoses.
Push the plug firmly into the end of the soaker hose until it cannot go any further. A tight fit is crucial for a water-tight seal and proper pressure build-up.
Without end plugs, water will escape at the end of the hose, preventing sufficient pressure from building up. This leads to uneven watering and reduced efficiency of the soaker hose system.
Ensure the end of the soaker hose is clean and free of debris. You can slightly moisten the end of the hose or the plug's barbed end with water to aid insertion. Ensure you are using a 13mm hose.
The plug may not be fully inserted or the seal is compromised. Remove the plug and re-insert it, ensuring it's pushed in as far as possible. Inspect the plug and the end of the hose for damage; replace if necessary.
Grip the plug firmly and pull. If still stuck, gently use a flathead screwdriver to lever it out from the side. Soaking the end of the hose in warm water can sometimes help loosen the plug.
Setup: To install, simply take one end of your 13mm soaker hose and push the barbed end of the plug firmly into the opening until it is fully seated. Ensure a snug fit to create a water-tight seal. For removal, grip the plug firmly and pull, or use a flathead screwdriver to gently pry it out if resistance is high.
Compatibility: These end plugs are designed for 13mm internal diameter LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene) soaker hoses. They are not suitable for other hose sizes or types of irrigation tubing.
Care: As the plugs are made from UV-resistant materials, they require minimal care. Periodically check them for any signs of damage or debris that might impede their sealing function. Clean with a damp cloth if necessary. Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to prolong lifespan.
