{"product_id":"lecto-universal-drip-line-repair-extension-kit-5-8","title":"LECTO Universal Drip Line Repair \u0026 Extension Kit – 5\/8","description":"Keep your drip irrigation system operating at peak efficiency with the LECTO Universal Drip Line Repair \u0026amp; Extension Kit. This updated kit includes a UV-resistant plastic coupler designed for 5\/8\", 1\/2\", and .700\" tubing, plus two 304-grade stainless steel hose clamps that resist corrosion and maintain a leak-proof seal. Whether you need to repair a cracked line or extend an existing run, simply slide the tubing ends into the coupler, tighten each clamp with a flathead screwdriver, and resume watering immediately. The durable plastic coupler withstands outdoor elements—sun exposure, temperature swings, and occasional knocks—while the stainless steel clamps ensure a firm grip under normal operating pressures. Designed for DIY gardeners and professional landscapers, this kit is compatible with most drip-line brands (Rain Bird, Netafim, Orbit) and installs quickly without special tools. Keep this compact repair \u0026amp; extension solution on hand for fast fixes and seamless irrigation expansions whenever you need them. Plastic Coupler Details: Material: High-density UV-stabilized plastic (resistant to cracking and brittleness over time). Dimensions: Fits 5\/8\", 1\/2\", and .700\" ID tubing; see usage tips below for measuring properly. Clamps: Type 304-grade stainless steel worm-gear clamps are included. Usage Tips: Trim Tubing Ends Cleanly: Use a razor-sharp blade or tubing cutter to cut edges squarely; jagged ends can cause leaks. Verify Tubing Size: Measure your tubing outer diameter with a caliper; if tubing appears tight, warm it briefly in the sun to improve flexibility before inserting. Position Clamps Correctly: Place clamps 3–5 mm (1\/16\"–3\/16\") from the coupler’s ends to prevent tubing from slipping off under pressure. Ideal Scenarios: Fixing a burst section of tubing without replacing large runs. Adding an extra irrigation zone by extending existing drip lines. On-site emergency repairs when water must be restored quickly.\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: What is included in the LECTO Universal Drip Line Repair \u0026amp; Extension Kit?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: A UV resistant plastic coupler for 5\/8, 1\/2, and 0.700 inch tubing plus two 304 stainless steel clamps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Is installation difficult for a DIY gardener?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: No. Cut tubing square, insert into the coupler, and tighten both clamps with a screwdriver for a secure seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"LECTO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45834104340666,"sku":"B0D2VPYXW7","price":40.9,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/3536\/8890\/files\/lecto-universal-5-8-inch-tubing-coupler.jpg?v=1778238618","url":"https:\/\/gardencanada.ca\/products\/lecto-universal-drip-line-repair-extension-kit-5-8","provider":"Garden Canada","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
