Raindrip 1/2in Compression Elbow - 90-Degree Turn for Drip Supply Tubing

The Raindrip Compression Elbow for 1/2in tubing creates a clean 90-degree direction change in your drip irrigation supply line without kinking or restricting water flow. The compression ring design grips the tubing as it is inserted and rocked into place, creating a watertight connection.
