Raindrip Tube End Plug Fitting - 1/4in

Push-On End Plug for Sealing 1/4in Drip Tubing Ends

An open tubing end at the finish of a drip run wastes water and soaks whatever's beneath it unless it's capped off cleanly. Raindrip's tube end plug pushes onto the open end of 1/4in drip tubing and seals it in seconds, with no tools or clamps needed.

It's a small, inexpensive part worth keeping several of on hand any time a line run ends or a tubing outlet needs to be taken out of service.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I install a tube end plug?

Push the end plug firmly onto the open end of the 1/4in tubing; it grips the tubing to create a seal without tools or clamps. A properly seated plug should resist a firm tug without popping loose.

Can I remove and reuse this end plug?

Yes, end plugs can generally be pulled off and reused if you need to reopen a line end or reconfigure part of your drip system. Inspect the plug for cracks or a loosened grip before reusing it on a new line end.

What tubing size does this plug fit?

This end plug is sized for standard 1/4in polyethylene drip irrigation micro tubing. Confirm your tubing's outer diameter matches before ordering to ensure a snug, leak-free fit.

Does this plug work on larger supply hose as well as micro tubing?

No, this plug is specifically sized for 1/4in micro tubing; a 1/2in or larger supply hose end needs a different size end plug or compression end cap. Using the wrong size plug on larger hose typically results in a loose fit that leaks under pressure.
