0.250" Id X 0.340" Od 500Ft Micro

Product Overview

System failures in micro-irrigation often stem from low-quality distribution tubing that kinks or cracks under the summer sun, leading to localized plant loss and costly emergency service calls. When peak season demand hits, a sudden shortage of reliable 1/4 inch poly can stall entire residential or commercial installs, leaving your crews waiting and your project deadlines at risk. High-quality micro tubing is frequently subject to supply chain volatility during late spring. Securing your inventory now ensures that you avoid the stress of back-orders while keeping your clients' high-value landscapes protected from dehydration during the critical heat of July and August.

The Toro 0.250 inch ID by 0.340 inch OD micro tubing offers a significant technical advantage over generic thin-walled alternatives found at big-box retailers. This professional-grade polyethylene is engineered with superior stress-crack resistance and UV inhibitors, which translates to fewer call-backs for repairs and a longer system lifespan for your clients. By utilizing a product that maintains its flexibility and structural integrity over time, your team saves valuable labor hours during installation and prevents the long-term maintenance costs associated with brittle or leaking distribution lines. Maintaining a consistent stock of this premium tubing gives your business a competitive edge by allowing for rapid deployment and reliable performance on every site.

Available Models & Sizes

This Toro micro tubing is supplied in standard 500 foot coils, which is the preferred length for professional crews balancing ease of transport with enough material for large-scale installs. While this 0.250 x 0.340 configuration is the industry standard for riser and emitter leads, we carry various lengths and diameters to meet specific hydraulic requirements; please contact our sales team for full configuration options and bulk volume pricing.

Key Features

• Exceptional flexibility allows for tight turns around landscape features without kinking or restricting flow.
• Sized accurately to ensure a leak-proof fit with standard 1/4 inch barbed fittings and emitters.
• Smooth internal wall surface reduces friction loss, maintaining consistent pressure at the emission point.
• Textured exterior provides a better grip for your crews during installation, even in wet conditions.

Common Applications

• Commercial landscape irrigation

Installation Notes

For the most secure connection, we recommend using high-quality barbed fittings and ensuring the tubing is cut square using a dedicated pipe cutter. If installing in colder temperatures, soaking the ends of the tubing in warm water can help the poly expand for easier fitting insertion without compromising the seal. Always follow local plumbing codes regarding backflow prevention and ensure the system pressure does not exceed the 60 PSI rating to maintain the integrity of the distribution network.
