SUPERIOR FLEXIBILITY - Elbows etc. not required due to malleability- turn hard corners easy!
HIGH QUALITY - Durable silicone tubing endures in harsh indoor/outdoor garden environments!
EASY CONNECTIONS - Simply push over an 8mm barb - no strength/tricky mechanisms required!
BLUMAT-READY - Integrate blumat systems and super-flex with nothing more than a pair of scissors!
ALMOST KINK-PROOF - Incredible material is practically impossible to kink - Re-use again and again!
This 8mm Super-Flex Tubing is the highest quality tubing we could find for blumat carrots and blumat watering systems. It is extruded from the highest quality silicone we could source. The material has a hardness rating of 60 Shore A and is heat-stabilized to withstand up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit, or 230 Celsius.
This tubing cannot be stained, is re-usable, and is basically the Rambo of water-supply tubing! It can endure highs and lows of temperatures as well as varying pressures, can endure high-UV environs (we have tested it for years in high-altitude mountains of Colorado), and you'd really need to make a conscious effort to kink or otherwise crease this tubing.
This tubing will readily integrate to any Tropf Blumats or 8mm Blumat Fittings, including the 8mm Through-Hull Bulkhead and Tank connector. That means you really just need a bulkhead or two, some of this tubing, and a blumat to automatically water your plants!
This super-flex tubing is one of the simplest ways to start a blumat watering system.This can be used as supply tubing to connect reservoirs, supply blumat watering stakes, or otherwise connect blumat systems. Don't count on sourcing rare 8mm tubing from your local hardware store!

BLUMAT READY - This 3mm drip tubing readily integrates with blumats, and attaches to included tees! BLUSOAK/DISTRIBUTION DRIPPERS - This tubing will integrate drippers and/or tape to blumat systems! HIGH QUALITY - Made of silicone and extremely durable, this pliable tubing is easy to work with! RARE 3MM SIZING - Order from us -- your local hardware store won't have this unique size! DISCRETE - Gray-brown color blends in easily with soil and planters--no need for unsightly tubing! This 3mm tubing is ideal for blumat watering systems and other unique irrigation applications. This is the sizing that is included with each blumat. This tubing runs through the caps/tops of each tropf blumat as well as the classic models.This 3mm tubing size is also the tubing size designed for integrating distribution drippers to blumat systems. If you want to string drippers around your container, you will want some of this tubing! This 3mm silicone tubing is also ideal for integrating BluSoak drip tape to blumat watering systems as well. This is really the choice tubing for automatic drip irrigation kit(s) and any blumat watering system.The silicone material is extremely high quality, and will endure in high-UV environments (like outdoors), under intense artificial lighting, or even underground! It can be handled like a piece of wet spaghetti, eliminating the need for additional fittings like "90-degree elbows" or other pieces required for acute angles or steep turns. This is the same 3mm tubing included with each blumat - so if you're looking for more of that rare material, look no further!This is the tubing that connects the Blumat sensors to the 8mm main line. The sensors all come with short lengths of this but if you want to install some further away, this is the way to do it. It's also the tubing used to connect the Blumat distributors to the Blumat sensors. This is useful for planter boxes, long rows or big plants that need more water from all sides.
Description
This is the tubing used to connect Blumat components to your water source. It's an 8 mm European style. You can also use US-style 5/16" drip tube but it's hard to find, not very flexible, and the fittings are harder to put in.
Buying these larger rolls saves about 15%.

Super flexible and almost impossible to kinkThis tubing is more expensive than typical 1/4", but is extremely easy to use. We like to put it after a valve at the end of a loop or line and use it as a handy water source. Being so flexible, it's easy to fill a little container, give a plant a little extra water, etc.It's extruded from a specially formulated silicone with a hardness rating of 60 Shore A and heat stabilized to ensure re-use and can handle temperatures up to 500°F (260C). It's non-staining, reuseable, and we can cut this to the length you need.We also have this in 100' rolls.

Description
Make cross connections in 1/4" line. You can use these to send distribution drippers in different directions rather than in a straight line. You can also use them as a more economical distribution method instead of using the drippers. Just cut equal lenghts of 1/4" tubing and spread them around. This requires more maintenance because roots can grow into the tubing but it does save some dollars. This would be our "Economy" design suggestion. The "Mid-Range" version would use the drippers and the "Deluxe" suggestion would be to use more Blumat carrots. This is more expensive but gives you redundancy rather than having all the eggs in one basket.
