The kit has 50’ of ¼” drip line with pre-inserted inline drip emitters every 9” (total of 66 drip emitters) for installing a drip irrigation system with up to ten 5’ long rows. The pre inserted emitter flow rates are .52 GPH @ 15 PSI, and .65 GPH @ 25 PSI. The kit also contains 50' of premium grade 1/2" drip tubing with .600" ID x .700" OD manufactured from low-density polyethylene resin.
