"PC-ND" Series

Pressure Compensating, No-Drain
Inline Drip Tubing

  • Features Plastro logo Hydro-PCND® Emitters
  • Built-in no-drain device eliminates water draining from the emitter when water supply is shut down.
    • Prevents dripline from sucking in soil particles and debris.
    • Ideal for short-pulse irrigation in greenhouse applications.
  • Sealing pressure: 1.5 PSI
