Ratchet Clip Trellis Hanger for 700/710 Drip Hose

Product Description

Used in vineyard applications where a wire is suspended along the vines and between posts. The drip tubing is attached to the wire with ratchet clips. This will clamp the hose and wire together, preventing the drip hose from moving and keeping emitters in the proper position for efficient watering.

Product Details

• Works with 1/2" to 3/4" drip tubing
• UV Resistant

FAQ

Is all 1/2" poly tubing (drip mainline) the same?

The short answer is no. Poly tubing may be called “1/2 inch” by manufacturers and retailers but if you look closely you’ll find that the tubing has specific Outer Diameter (OD) and Inner Diameter (ID) dimensions.

Common OD dimensions are:

.700 inches (called “700") Black fittings
.620 inches (called “620”)  Green-ringed fittings
.710 inches (called “710”) Blue-ringed fittings
.580 inches (called “580”) Yellow-ringed fittings
.455 inches called "455") Red-ringed fittings

We carry 700 poly tubing and Compression fittings. We also carry fittings and adaptors for many of the common tubing sizes.

How far can I run the 1/2” drip poly tubing (mainline)?

The maximum drip mainline run is determined by the flow rate, water pressure, the number of emitters on the line, and distance between the emitters. Our 700 tubing has a maximum flow rate of 240 gallons per hour. We recommend a 20psi or 30psi drip regulator.

For most residential drip irrigation systems using a hose bibb (faucet, spigot, hydrant) as the water supply, follow these guidelines:

Maximum drip mainline run: 500 ft
Maximum emitter output: 240 gallons per hour
 
Since a typical hose bibb delivers 240 gallons per hour, you can put 240 1 gallon-per-hour emitters on the line (or 480 1/2 gallon-per-hour emitters or 120 2 gallon-per-hour emitters).

This works up to a point. If you run your drip poly tubing over 500 feet, there will be some pressure loss, limiting the number of emitters that you can install. For a maximum length run chart and more details read our tutorial on Installing Drip Tubing and Fittings.

How far can I run the drip emitter tubing (dripperline)?

The maximum run varies with the size of the tubing and the spacing of the emitters.

Emitter Tubing Guidelines
Tubing Size & Emitter Spacing	Pressure Compensating Emitters?	Max psi	Max Run per branch	Max Run Total           (1/4" is fed from 1/2" mainline)
1/4" Tubing - 6" spacing 1/2 gal/hr	No	30	19 ft	200 ft
1/4" Tubing - 12" spacing 1/2 gal/hr	No	30	33 ft	400 ft
1/2" Tubing - 12" spacing 1/2 gal/hr	Yes	50*		450 ft
1/2" Tubing - 18" spacing 1/2 gal/hr	Yes	50*		500 ft
1/2" Tubing - 18" spacing 1 gal/hr	Yes	50*		350 ft
* We recommend operating at 20 - 30 psi

 

Pressure Compensating Emitters

• Deliver the stated gph (gallons per hour) even if pressures range is 10-50 psi
• Works well with elevation changes
• Self-flushing to reduce clogging

Non-Pressure-Compensating Emitters

• Output will vary with changes in pressure & elevation
• Workes best with flat landscapes
• Excellent for gravity-fed drip systems

1/2" Compression Fittings

• Recommended pressure: 10-30 psi
• Max pressure: 60 psi

How do I add on to my existing drip system?

We have a great selection of drip tubing coupling adapters for varying sizes of drip tubing. They are color coded. The first step is to determine the Outer Diameter (OD) of your tubing.  

Common OD dimensions are:

.700 inches (called “700") Black fittings - 700 Compression Coupler
.620 inches (called “620”) Green-ringed fittings - 700 x 620 Compression Adapter
.710 inches (called “710”) Blue-ringed fittings - 700 x 710 Compression Adapter
.580 inches (called “580”) Yellow-ringed fittings - 700 x 580 Compression Adapter
.455 inches called "455") Red-ringed fittings - 700 x 455 Compression Adapter

If you find that your existing tubing is not 700, simply add the appropriate coupling adapter to your order to go from your tubing to 700.

Can I bury my drip tubing?

We do not recommend burying drip tubing in the soil. However, a layer of mulch on top will extend the lifespan of the drip tubing. Buy Drip tubing here.

Goof Plug

Also called mistake plugs, goof plugs are used in drip irrigation to plug up small holes in mainline drip tubing. They are also used as end caps in 1/4" drip micro tubing. It is always good to keep a handful of goof plugs on hand.
