Netafim™ Flex Tube Adapter - 3mm Nipple - For Woodpecker Drippers to 3/5mm Tubing

Seamless Micro-Tubing Connection for Woodpecker Dripper Systems

With a 3mm nipple outlet on one end and a barbed connection for 3/5mm flex tubing on the other, it creates a secure, leak-resistant joint that locks flex tubing in place for consistent drip delivery. Simple to install and fully compatible with Netafim's Woodpecker dripper ecosystem for modular, scalable drip irrigation design.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size tubing does this adapter accept?

The barbed end accepts 3/5mm flexible micro-tubing — tubing with a 3mm inner diameter and 5mm outer diameter.

Can I use this adapter with Woodpecker drippers other than the nipple outlet model?

This adapter is specified for Woodpecker nipple outlet drippers. Verify compatibility with other Woodpecker variants before use.

Does the barbed connection require a clamp?

In low-pressure micro-irrigation applications, the barb typically holds without a clamp. For higher-pressure lines, a micro-clamp adds security.

Can I reuse this adapter if I reconfigure my irrigation layout?

Yes — the adapter can be removed and reinstalled in a new location, though repeated removal may reduce barb grip on older tubing.
