The Rivulis 1/2" Irrigation Supply Hose (SKU 101082000) is a commercial-grade black polyethylene (PE) supply tubing supplied as a 500-foot coil. It is designed as the primary distribution line for drip irrigation and fertigation systems, carrying pressurized water or nutrient solution from a main supply, manifold, or header to individual irrigation zones, where 1/4" micro-tubing, drip stakes, or emitters can branch off.
• SKU: 101082000
• Brand: Rivulis
• Nominal Tubing Size: 1/2"
• Coil Length: 500 ft
• Material: Polyethylene (PE)
• Color: Black
• Tubing Type: Blank supply/distribution tubing — no pre-installed emitters
• Primary Applications: Drip irrigation mainlines, zone laterals, and submain headers
• Irrigation Use: Carries pressurized water from the main supply/manifold to irrigation zones
• Fertigation: Suitable for nutrient-solution distribution in commercial fertigation systems
• Algae Protection: Black construction blocks light transmission, helping inhibit algae growth inside the tubing
• UV Resistance: Black polyethylene construction provides UV resistance for above-grade or exposed runs
• Flexibility: Flexible enough to route around benches, racks, and container perimeters
• Fitting Compatibility: Standard 1/2" barbed, compression, and insert fittings
• Micro-Tubing Compatibility: Accepts punched-in 1/4" barb fittings or emitters
• Emitter Compatibility: Can feed drip stakes, micro-tubing, and inline emitter lines
• Typical Installation: Runs from a fertigation skid/manifold along bench rows or through aisles, with smaller irrigation lines branching to individual plants
• Commercial Use: Suitable for indoor cultivation, greenhouses, hybrid facilities, nurseries, orchards, and other horticultural irrigation systems
• Splicing: 500-ft continuous coil provides long runs with reduced need for intermediate splicing
• Pressure Application: Designed to carry pressurized irrigation water; specific operating-pressure limits are not stated on the product page
• Important Note: Fitting dimensions can vary between manufacturers, so compatibility should be confirmed when mixing brands.
Key Advantage: The Rivulis 1/2" hose provides a flexible, light-blocking distribution backbone for commercial drip and fertigation systems. Its 500-foot coil length and compatibility with both 1/2" fittings and punched-in 1/4" connections make it easy to build long zone laterals and branch individual plant irrigation points from a single supply line.
