4mm Micro Tube Fittings

These fittings are for 4/6mm irrigation micro tube, not garden hose. They're sized for the thin tube that feeds individual drippers, jets and pots, and won't fit a garden hose. For hose fittings, see our garden hose fittings.

Fittings for 4/6mm micro tube, the thin tube that carries water from your supply pipe to each dripper, jet or pot. Here you'll find the take-offs that connect micro tube to 13mm pipe, and the joiners, tees, elbows and crosses that route it, in both our anti-leak range and Antelco barbed fittings.

Anti-leak or barbed?

• Anti-leak fittings have a compression nut that clamps the tube, so it can't pull off. They're best where tube gets tugged, such as hanging baskets and pots you move. The range includes a joiner, elbow, tee, cross and stop end.
• Antelco barbed fittings push on, with no nut. They're quick to fit and cost less, and they suit low-pressure systems where the tube stays put. The range includes a joiner, elbow, tee and 4-way cross.

Taking micro tube off 13mm pipe

• Antelco 4mm tube adaptor: punch a hole in the supply pipe and push it in. It's the simplest way.
• Antelco in-line take-off: cut the pipe and fit it in-line, with a 4mm outlet.
• Anti-leak in-line connectors with one, two or four 4mm outlets, for feeding a group of pots from one point.

Control and finish

• 4mm flow control valve: turns one branch down or off.
• Blanking plugs: close the end of a micro tube, or seal a hole in the supply pipe that you no longer need.
• 4mm hold-down stakes: pin the tube in place.

Do these fit Hozelock micro tube?

Yes. The anti-leak 4mm fittings fit Hozelock, Claber, Gardena and Rain Bird 4mm tube, and the Antelco fittings fit Hozelock 4mm too.
