The Irrigation Back-Plate Elbow is designed for forming a compatible right-angle irrigation connection in professional nursery, greenhouse and horticultural irrigation systems.

Reliable irrigation depends on matching emitters, stakes, pipework and installation tools correctly so water is delivered consistently and connections remain secure.

Key benefits

  • Designed for forming a compatible right-angle irrigation connection
  • Suitable for professional nursery and greenhouse irrigation
  • Useful for installation, maintenance or crop watering as appropriate

Building reliable irrigation connections

Use the fitting only with compatible pipework and connection sizes. Cut pipe squarely where required, seat the fitting fully and avoid side-loading connections with tight bends or unsupported pipe.

After installation, pressurise the system and inspect the joint for leakage before putting the irrigation zone into routine service.

Irrigation system management

Good components cannot compensate for poor system design. Size pipework, zones and water supply for the required flow and pressure, and use suitable filtration where emitters or small waterways are vulnerable to debris.

Flush and inspect irrigation systems as appropriate to water quality and crop hygiene requirements.

Maintenance & storage

Inspect components periodically for blockage, wear, leaks or physical damage. Keep installation tools clean and dry between jobs and replace damaged components rather than relying on temporary fixes in production systems.

Irrigation Back-Plate Elbow FAQs

What is this product used for?

Forming a compatible right-angle irrigation connection.

Is it suitable for professional irrigation systems?

Yes, where the component is compatible with the pipework, emitters and system configuration being used.

What should I check before installation?

Confirm component and pipe compatibility, inspect the parts for damage and plan the connection so pipework is not kinked or under unnecessary tension.

Should the system be tested after fitting?

Yes. Pressurise or run the irrigation zone and check for leaks, secure connections and expected water delivery.

How can I maintain irrigation uniformity?

Inspect representative outlets, maintain filtration and flushing as required and investigate blocked or damaged components promptly.

Can one irrigation run time suit every crop?

No. Irrigation duration and frequency depend on crop size, container volume, substrate, weather and emitter output.

How should spare components or tools be stored?

Keep them clean, dry and organised so sealing surfaces, cutting edges and small waterways are protected from damage and contamination.
