Latched Sprinkler Pipes

What Are Latched Sprinkler Pipes and Which Sizes Are Made?

Latched sprinkler pipes are polyethylene pipes used to build a sprinkler irrigation line in the field; a latch lock at each end lets them connect and come apart quickly. Düzgünler Plastik makes them in 8 sizes from Ø50 to Ø160, in 5, 6, 8 and 10 bar pressure classes, in 5 and 6 meter lengths.

They are made for growers who need a portable agricultural irrigation pipe that goes out at the start of the season and comes back in at the end.

How Do Latched Sprinkler Pipes Work?

Short answer: the pipes lock together with a latch, a gasket seals the joint, and sprinklers on the line spread water over the field. Open the latch and the pipe comes off, so the line can move to another plot.

• Fast setup: This quick coupling irrigation pipe connects and comes apart without tools.

• Portability: The polyethylene body is light, so the line moves from plot to plot.

• Recognition: The pipes are made with a blue stripe.

Which Sizes and Pressure Classes Are Made?

Wall thicknesses come from the official product tables. Wall thickness grows with the pressure class.

Which Pressure Class Should You Choose?

Never pick a class below the working pressure your pump puts on the line. Slope and line length affect pressure, so make the final choice with your project data.

Which Fittings Does the System Include?

• Direction and distribution: Elbow, tee, cross and reduction.

• Control: Main line valve and ball valve.

• Line end and joining: Male and female end caps, male and female latch heads, coupling.

• Sprinkler connection: Sprinkler stand and riser pipe.

• Sealing: Latched gasket.
