RK0017L – 16mm Grommet x 5/8" Drip Tape Starter Connector
The RK0017L is a punch-in starter connector designed for use with 5/8" drip tape and 16mm-punched lay-flat or poly mainline tubing. The double-lip grommet forms a self-sealing connection while the swivel lock outlet simplifies tape deployment across long field rows.
Key Features
- 16mm double-lip grommet: Seals tightly into the punched mainline hole with two sealing lips for a leak-resistant, clamp-free connection.
- Swivel lock outlet: Tape rotates during installation to prevent kinking and allow fast multi-row setup.
- Tool-free tape attachment: Drip tape snaps in and releases without tools for efficient seasonal management.
- Plastic and rubber construction: Durable in field conditions with resistance to UV and agricultural chemicals.
