With drought affecting more and more areas of the country, a water efficient, economical method of watering row crops is essential. T-Tape® is an excellent product for use in agricultural irrigation, farm irrigation and backyard garden applications. The following pages on Drip Tape for Farm Irrigation and Drip Tape for Home Garden give additional information on using T-Tape® for your watering needs.

  How T-Tape® Works
T-Tape®, also known as drip tape, features a turbulent flow track emitter design that provides a high level of watering uniformity. Each outlet is part of a true drip emitter, providing reliable drip flow without squirting. A specially designed slit outlet reduces insect damage, impedes root intrusion and virtually eliminates start-up plugging from external contaminants.
The water in the supply tube passes into the regulating channel through multiple filtering inlets. The water next passes through the turbulent flow channel to regulate the discharge flow before exiting through the outlet. The advanced turbulent flow design uses large passageways which are less likely to plug and provide more uniform discharge for longer lengths of run than other drip tape technologies.
