Rain Bird SBE-075 3/4" M NPT x 1/2" Barb Elbow for Swing Pipe
Rain Bird SBE-075 is a right-angle barb elbow designed for use with SPX-Flex swing pipe to create a flexible, tool-free swing assembly between sprinkler bodies and flexible tubing. Constructed from robust acetal, the fitting delivers reliable performance and a secure connection for residential, commercial, and sports-field irrigation installations.
- Material: High-strength acetal construction for durability and corrosion resistance.
- Connections: 3/4" male NPT thread to 1/2" (12.5 mm) spiral barb for easy insertion into SPX-Flex swing pipe.
- Installation: Twist-in spiral barb — no glue or clamps required; aggressive barb lip reduces the risk of blowouts.
- Performance: Rated for operation up to 80 psi (5.5 bar) and temperatures up to 110°F (43°C).
- Compatibility: Intended for use with Rain Bird SPX-Flex swing pipe and 3/4" threaded sprinkler housings (e.g., 5000 series); not for use with XF Series dripline or XBS tubing.
Use the SBE-075 elbow to simplify pop-up sprinkler connections where flexibility and movement protection are needed. Its twist-in design speeds installation and reduces callbacks by keeping the connection secure under typical irrigation pressures.
