Netafim 5" Netbow Outlet Drip Irrigation Ring - 4 Outlets - 77470-000004

Product Overview

Irrigating high value container crops requires precision that standard emitters often fail to provide. When your drip system suffers from uneven wetting patterns or clogged outlets, you risk localized dry spots that leads to stunted growth or total crop loss. This becomes a critical liability during the peak summer heat when transpiration rates are at their highest. With global supply chains remaining unpredictable, waiting until the middle of the growing season to secure your irrigation components is a gamble that can result in failed inspections or delayed harvests. By integrating the Netafim Netbow into your inventory now, you ensure that your projects stay on schedule and your nursery clients maintain healthy, uniform yields without the stress of back-ordered equipment.

The Netafim Netbow offers a distinct technical advantage over traditional single-point stakes by providing 360-degree water distribution. This multi-outlet design eliminates the need for manual adjustment or the installation of multiple emitters per pot, which significantly reduces labor hours during initial setup and subsequent maintenance. Unlike lower-grade tubing that is prone to kink or shift, the rigid structure of the Netbow stays exactly where your crews place it. Investing in professional-grade Netafim components gives your operation a competitive edge by minimizing water waste and reducing the long-term overhead associated with troubleshooting under-performing systems.

• Rigid 5-inch ring design provides a stable platform that resists movement from wind or accidental impact.
• Multi-outlet distribution creates a uniform wetting pattern across the entire root zone of the container.
• UV-resistant construction prevents material degradation when exposed to intense direct sunlight in nursery settings.
• Simple installation process allows your crews to connect the ring directly to the supply line with standard micro-tubing.
• Adaptable design integrates seamlessly with Netafim PC drippers for pressure-compensated performance on uneven terrain.

Common Applications

• Greenhouse and nursery operations
• Agricultural and crop irrigation
• Municipal parks and public spaces
• Residential lawn and garden systems
• Commercial landscape irrigation
• Potable water supply systems

Installation Notes

For optimal performance, installers should ensure the Netbow is placed level on the surface of the growing media to prevent water from channeling to one side. Connection requires standard 1/8 inch micro-tubing to link the ring to a hub dripper, which controls the specific flow rate into the four outlets. It is recommended to follow local plumbing codes regarding backflow prevention and to use a 120-mesh filter to protect the internal emitters from physical debris found in well or surface water sources.
