Raindrip 1/4-Inch Drip Tubing 50-Foot Coil — Flexible, UV-Resistant Polyethylene Micro Supply Line

Raindrip R252DT 1/4-inch poly drip tubing is a 50-foot micro supply line designed to deliver water precisely from your main line to drippers, emitters, and small drip systems.

This 1/4-inch distribution tubing (also called micro or spaghetti tubing) provides a simple, flexible way to route water to individual plants, pots, hanging baskets, planter boxes, raised beds, or low-flow emitters. Built with a layered polyethylene construction, the Raindrip R252DT pairs durable performance with easy installation—ideal for expanding existing drip setups or building compact systems for small landscapes and container gardens.

How will this tubing integrate with my existing drip system?

The 1/4-inch tubing connects directly to 1/4" barbed fittings, emitters, and micro-connectors, making it compatible with most common drip irrigation components. Use it as a feeder line from the main 1/2" or 3/4" supply, or run it as the main line for compact layouts.

• 0.250 in OD, 0.170 in ID fits standard 1/4" micro fittings and barbed connectors
• Works with Raindrip and other brands that accept 1/4" connections
• Flexible enough to route through pots, beds, and trellises without kinking

What makes Raindrip’s tubing more durable than other micro tubing?

Raindrip uses a three-layer polyethylene approach: virgin material forms the inner and outer layers while a recycled-content middle layer reduces waste. The outer virgin layer helps resist UV exposure and cracking, and the inner virgin layer ensures water-contact surfaces stay reliable.

• Outer layer: 100% virgin polyethylene for UV resistance
• Middle layer: recycled content for environmental efficiency
• Inner layer: 100% virgin polyethylene to maintain water integrity

How easy is installation and everyday use?

Installation is straightforward—cut to length, attach to a barbed connector or emitter, and secure with a fitting if needed. The coil ships shrink-wrapped for convenient storage and simple access during setup or repairs.

• Comes as a 50 ft coil—cut to custom lengths for precision watering
• Compatible with standard micro fittings and emitters for plug-and-play setup
• Lightweight and flexible for quick routing in tight spaces

What applications suit this tubing best?

The 1/4-inch supply tubing is ideal for targeted irrigation of individual plants, container collections, vegetable rows, or as branch lines from a larger distribution system. It’s designed to deliver low-volume, slow watering directly to root zones without oversaturating soil.

• Feeder lines to single emitters for trees, shrubs, and pots
• Main line for small-scale drip setups and raised beds
• Perfect for hanging baskets, planter boxes, and precise spot watering

Who is this for: Gardeners, landscapers, and DIY irrigation installers who need a reliable, adaptable micro tubing solution for targeted drip irrigation. If you’re expanding a larger system, building a compact drip layout, or creating discrete feeder lines for pots and small beds, the Raindrip R252DT delivers a durable, easy-to-install 50-foot supply line that works with common drip fittings and emitters.
