The Rain Bird XFD0618500 XF Dripline delivers precise, reliable irrigation for landscape beds, groundcovers, hedges and other non-turf plantings. This extra-flexible, dual-layer tubing includes factory-installed, pressure-compensating inline emitters spaced every 18 inches to ensure uniform water distribution along the entire lateral.

  • Flow rate & spacing: 0.6 GPH emitters installed every 18 inches on a 500 ft coil for consistent watering and coverage.
  • Pressure-compensating performance: Built-in emitters maintain uniform flow across the lateral in the operating range of 8.5–60 PSI, improving plant health and water efficiency.
  • Extra flexibility: XF material allows a 3" bend radius, making the tubing easy to route through tight curves with fewer fittings.
  • Durable construction: Dual-layer brown-over-black polyethylene resists UV damage, chemicals and algae for long-term on-surface use.
  • Trusted specifications: Outside diameter 0.634" (16.1 mm), inside diameter 0.536" (13.6 mm), wall thickness 0.049" (1.2 mm); requires 120 mesh filtration.
  • Fittings & installation: Accepts Rain Bird Easy-Fit compression fittings, XF insert fittings, 17mm insert fittings and LOC fittings; use an air/vacuum relief when installed below grade.

Designed for efficient, low-flow irrigation, the XFD0618500 is ideal where tight turns and reliable, pressure-compensated performance are required. Use this dripline on the surface or shallowly buried with appropriate filtration and valves to maximize longevity and uniformity.
