GARDENA Micro-Drip System Pipe Guide 4.6 mm (3/16"): Practical pipe peg for fixing Micro-Drip System pipes into the ground (8327-20), 105532

Shove these little mites on your pipe and you'll be spraying in ALL directions. They are tight to get on, but if you lube your pipe up good they slip right on easier. My wife's Garden gets soaking wet with these babies!! Really good to use if she wants to go from a 30mm Girth to a 5mm Girth

These give a positive connection to both hose sizes involved, and are easy to fit if the hoses are warmed in hot water. The illustrations on the Amazon website show only 1 item. But be aware that at the end of the listing it very discreetly tells you there’s 5 in a pack.

Update, the valve leakage was due to the lock not being loose on delivery. Through experimentation I’ve managed to tighten the unit and it no longer leaks.1 out of 2 work, not what I’d expect from such a name. 1 of the valves leaks when opened, reducing the water pressure in the irrigation system.

Not the 4.6mm pipe clip I wanted but does the job. More importantly though is the fact that under the product description it states 10 clips per box. In fact the product supplied was in a blister pack and there were only 5 per pack! So instead of the 20 I thought I had bought I ended up with 10 which made the purchase not very good value.

I bought these because the fittings that screw into a pierced hole in the main pipe tend to leak. I'm not at all keen on the new clip fittings which are fragile and tend to pop off, The old friction ones were not perfect but more reliable, although the original had two outlets one of which you always had to block off . I add a stainless hose clip to be sure.

I have had this system installed at home since 2001 , it is excellent! I needed a new T joint as one had perished , this was delivered next day and installed within 5 minutes of arrival . Fabulous!!

simply to use however after a while the plastic becomes brittle and the side connector breaks off, hence buying more.

The valves themselves are fine, but the metal pieces that are supposed to retain the hose are totally useless and all my hoses worked themselves free eventually. Just use pliers to remove the metal bits and use normal hose clamps.
