Rain Bird XFD Dripline

Pressure-compensating emitters ensure that every plant along the line receives the same amount of water, regardless of elevation changes or the distance from the water source. This consistency prevents over-watering at the start of the line and under-watering at the end.

Yes, this dripline is compatible with standard compression and insert fittings, making it easy to integrate into existing irrigation systems or connect to standard supply lines.

While the emitter design is grit-tolerant and clog-resistant, Rain Bird requires a 120-mesh filter to be installed in your system. This simple step is essential to protect the emitters from debris and ensure long-term performance.

Absolutely. The material is engineered for high flexibility, allowing you to make tighter turns during installation without kinking. This often eliminates the need for extra elbow fittings, which simplifies the layout process.

The dual-layered design provides a robust barrier against environmental stressors. It specifically enhances resistance to UV damage, chemical exposure, and algae growth, which helps extend the lifespan of the tubing in outdoor, exposed conditions.

This dripline features a flow rate of 0.61 gallons per hour (GPH) with emitters spaced 18 inches apart. This configuration is ideal for ground cover, dense plantings, and hedgerows where consistent, low-volume watering is needed.
