Active Aqua 1/2 in Straight Connector

The Active Aqua 1/2 in Straight Connector is a barbed straight coupling that joins two sections of 1/2 in hose in the irrigation lines of your hydroponic system. It can be used to extend a run that was too short or to repair a damaged section without having to redo the entire line.

Benefits

• Connects two sections of 1/2 in ID hose in an in-line connection.
• High-strength polypropylene, tolerant of chemicals and nutrient solutions.
• Barbed ends firmly hold the hose, without the need for clamps in low-pressure lines.
• Compatible with Active Aqua and most standard 1/2 in hydroponic connections.
• Reusable: can be disassembled, rinsed, and reinstalled for the next cycle.

How to use

Firmly insert the 1/2 in ID hose over both barbed ends until it is well seated. Add clamps for extra security if the line is pressurized. Rinse the connector with clean water between growing cycles and check for cracks or loosening during each cycle change.

Available at Pachamama with shipping throughout Costa Rica.
