When a low quality fitting fails under pressure during the peak of the summer heat, the resulting water waste and plant stress can lead to costly callbacks and dissatisfied clients. With supply chain volatility making it harder to source reliable components on short notice, waiting until a system fails is a risk your business cannot afford. Securing your inventory of Netafim 17mm Barbed Techline Insert Tees now ensures your crews stay on schedule and your installations remain leak free throughout the busiest months of the year.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConstructed from high grade, UV resistant plastic, these insert tees offer a superior mechanical connection compared to generic alternatives that often soften or slip in high temperature environments. The aggressive barb design creates a permanent, high friction seal that eliminates the need for clamps in most standard applications, directly reducing your labor time per zone. By standardized on Netafim genuine fittings, you provide your team with components that fit perfectly every time, allowing you to maintain a competitive edge through faster installation speeds and significantly lower long term maintenance costs for your clients.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHigh-Impact UV Resistant Polypropylene\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e17 mm (Compatible with 1\/2 inch Tubing)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTriple Barbed Insert\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaximum Pressure\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50 PSI\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColor\/Finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrown (Matches Techline Tubing)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNetafim USA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAvailable Models \u0026amp; Sizes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Netafim 17mm Barbed series includes various configurations such as elbows, straight couplings, and male adapters to suit any site layout.

In colder temperatures, briefly warming the tubing end can ease the insertion process, though the fitting should always be pushed in until the tubing reaches the center stop of the tee. While these fittings are rated for use without clamps up to 50 PSI, always follow local codes and manufacturer guidelines regarding the use of stainless steel ear clamps in high heat or high pressure scenarios to ensure long term system integrity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Netafim USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52093144400161,"sku":"00135-000870","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0955\/8458\/3969\/files\/netafim_00135-000870.png?v=1765471188","url":"https:\/\/asiwsupply.com\/products\/netafim-17mm-barbed-techline-insert-tee-compatible-with-12-drip-line-tubing-00135-000872","provider":"ASIW","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
