Netafim TechLock Male Adapter - 17mm x 3/4-in MPT - 25 Count

Tight-Sealing Tubing-to-Thread Connections - 25 Adapters

Joining flexible tubing to threaded irrigation hardware is where leaks tend to start. These Netafim TechLock male adapters use barb ends that fit securely on UV polyethylene tubing, while the threaded cap and compression ring seal the joint. The 3/4-in MPT end screws into standard female threaded fittings.

Each unit contains 25 adapters, enough for a small to mid-sized irrigation or hydroponic water line build, with spares for future repairs and changes. Larger installations can order multiple units.
