Rain Bird T70-500S Drip Irrigation 1/2" (0.700" OD) Blank Distribution Tubing, 500', Black

This is their 700 hose so thicker and more sturdy, unroll it and leave it in the sun a while to help flatten it out before installation.Easy to push in to the rainbird barb fittings, working great.

This is my second time buying this and I have had no issues with any of the pipe. Definitely worth the price!

I like the thickness of this drip irrigation tubing. It’s thicker than the stuff at retail stores; thus will last longer. But, also note you will need larger size fittings, as the outside diameter is .70. I also like the 500 foot length. Suggestion...keep the shipping box, as it’s the perfect size to store the roll, if you have extra tubing. We only needed about 250 feet for this application, but will surely use the rest later; so it’s box will keep the roll intact. Pull from center end, to keep the roll intact.

This distribution tubing seems to be excellent quality. Because it is stiff and tightly coiled, it can be difficult to store if you remove the wrapper; I kept mine in the wrapper as much as possible, only uncoiling what I needed from the middle. That resulted in some waste, but made it much easier to carry and store.The tubing's stiffness makes it a little difficult to lay in place, and it would have helped a lot if I'd had an extra set of hands to help measure it and set it up. I strongly recommend pulling out whatever you think you'll need, untwisting it a few coils at a time, and leaving it out in the sun to warm. The heat relaxes it a little, making it somewhat easier to work with.

The 500' roll is the way to buy this tubing if installing drip irrigation in more than just a tiny area. The price per foot is exceptionally good compared to buying the same amount of footage in smaller rolls. My property is only 1/3 acre, but has plenty of shady garden areas with hostas, ferns, and evergreen shrubs. I am so pleased to have plenty of product at hand to continue my installation as far as I wish. I used amazon for all my supplies, making it simple to compile my shopping list and accomplish all the buying at one time, instead of running from one Big Box Store to another trying to find all the items in stock. THANKS AMAZON!

This tubing is fantastic a lot better than you can buy at the big box store. I am in the process of redoing my whole yard an will be using about 750 feet of this material. Some people gave it a bad review yes it is a little stiffer and it's harder to penetrate for your 1/4 inch line but if you use a small punch it works really well. Some people said it was a snake and hard to work with but I found if you leave it in the sun it is easy. The biggest mistake people make is unwrapping. DO NOT unwrap the covering just cut the stripes that hold it on the inside. READ THE MESSAGE ON THE OUT SIDE FIRST. You will be glad you did...

Bought this to water a line of trees I was planting. Not quite sure why folks are having such issues. After very little planning I unwrapped the package, rolled out the length I needed, let is sit in the sun and staked it down after installing the emitters. (And NO you can't use a drip line hole punch on a 1/4" line....wow there's some real Einstein's in these review comments) The Rainbird fittings/couplers worked perfectly and were a cinch to install. No leaks, no headaches. Will buy again.

We’re very pleased with this drip tape. It’s very easy to install & not one emitter leaked. We ran 30 ft Untapped stretch over driveway connecting 300+ Total feet in length (57 thuja trees) & it’s held up. It has been driven over by light & heavy vehicles/equipment and held up so far. I would recommend this to everyone & have.
