The multi-stream drip emitter is an ideal sprinkler for watering annuals in a flowerbed or container. The pattern is a full pattern gentle multi-stream that extends up to 3 feet at typical drip operating pressure of 30 PSI. You can decrease the spray radius, or even shut it all the way off, by rotating the multi-stream head clockwise. The 10-32 male thread (MT) inlet on the multi-stream emitter connects to an optional 6 or 12-inch drip stake with 10-32 female thread (FT). The inlet also has a barb for direct connection to 1/4-inch tubing and you can then hold the emitter in place at each plant with a drip tubing Y-anchor stake. You can either run 1/4-inch drip tubing from a drip manifold, a 1/2-inch drip tubing “lateral” line, or directly off the hose faucet with a 1/4-inch hose faucet x 1/4-inch adapter. Recommended operating pressure is 30 PSI. For outdoor irrigation use with cold water only.
