Overview of Drip Tape

 

 

Drip tape is a thin-walled, flat, polyethylene tube used for efficient, low-pressure irrigation in gardens and agriculture. It features pre-installed emitters at regular intervals that slowly drip water directly onto plant roots. Commonly used for straight, long row crops, it inflates when in use and can be placed on, under, or within plastic mulch.

Product advantages
 

Reusable
Drip tape is made of reusable, heavy-duty plastic that can be used for many years.

 

Automated
Drip tape automates the irrigation system and saves you time by not having to manually water your plants. This saves you time, and if you're paying someone to help you with your garden, it could save you money as well. To fully automate your drip tape system, invest in a timer.

 

Conserves water
Drip tape ensures water is delivered directly to the roots of the plants, reducing water waste and increasing plant growth. It's an efficient irrigation system that doesn't waste water, since there is no surface water runoff and hardly any evaporation.

 

Reduces disease and pest pressure
Often, disease develops when plant leaves stay wet and spread through backsplash, or when contaminated water droplets come into contact with neighboring plants. Drip tape slowly applies water at the base of the plant, preventing backsplash and limiting the spread of foliar disease.

Flat Emitter Drip Tape

Reduces weeds
Drip tape is designed to water the plants, not the surrounding soil, which results in fewer weeds to manage.

 

Improves plant growth
The key to happy, healthy plants is consistent moisture. You don't want to let your plants get too dry, but you also don't want them to get too wet. Drip tape takes the guesswork and irregularities out of irrigation, providing the appropriate amount of moisture at the perfect time.

 

Good for containers
Sprinklers are good for irrigating garden rows and fields, but they're certainly not the best option for containers and irregularly-shaped spaces. But the beauty of drip tape is that it can turn corners, run a circle, and connect containers in a way that carries water from one place to another.

 

Common types

 

There are various types of drip tapes categorized by:
Wall Thickness: 6 mil (short-term), 8-10 mil (medium-term), 15 mil (long-term use).
Emitter Spacing: 10 cm, 20 cm, 30 cm, 60 cm.
Flow Rate: 0.2 – 1.0 gallons per minute (GPM) per 100 ft.

Material

 

Polyethylene is the most common raw material used to make drip tape. This polymer is a thermoplastic that is obtained from the polymerization of the monomer ethylene. Polyethylene comes in different types, each with its characteristics and applications. The main types of polyethylene used in tape production are:

 

Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (LLDPE): LLDPE is the primary choice for tape production due to its high flexibility, resistance to tearing and stretching, and ease of processing. The presence of short branches in the LLDPE polymer chain makes it more flexible than other polyethylenes and shows good resistance.

 

Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE): LDPE is also used in the production of tape due to its good flexibility and low cost, but it usually has a lower tensile strength than LLDPE. LDPE contains longer branches in its polymer chain, which reduces its density and, as a result, makes it more flexible.

 

High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE): HDPE has higher strength and chemical resistance than LDPE and LLDPE, but it is less flexible. For this reason, HDPE is often used as a minor component in the composition of tape raw materials to increase the overall strength of the product.

FAQ

 

 

Q: What is drip tape and where is it typically used?

A: Drip tape is a thin-walled irrigation tubing with integrated emitters, widely used in row crops and large-scale agriculture for efficient, low-cost irrigation.

Q: How does drip tape differ from drip tubing?

A: Drip tape is lighter and more cost-effective, making it ideal for seasonal use, while drip tubing is thicker and better suited for long-term installations.

Q: What crops are best suited for drip tape irrigation?

A: Drip tape is commonly used for vegetables, strawberries, tomatoes, melons, and other row crops that benefit from precise water delivery.

Q: What wall thickness options are available?

A: We offer various wall thicknesses, typically ranging from 4 mil to 15 mil, depending on field conditions and expected lifespan.

Q: Can emitter spacing be customized?

A: Yes, emitter spacing can be customized (e.g., 10 cm, 20 cm, 30 cm) to match crop spacing and soil infiltration rates.

Q: What flow rates do your drip tapes provide?

A: Our drip tapes are available in multiple flow rates to meet different irrigation requirements, ensuring optimal water distribution for various crops.

Q: Can I reuse drip tape?

A: Yes, if properly maintained and stored after use.

Q: How do I prevent clogging in drip tape?

A: Use a 150-mesh filter and flush the system regularly.

Q: Is drip tape suitable for sloped land?

A: Use pressure-compensated emitters to maintain even water distribution.

Q: How often should I replace drip tape?

A: Depending on thickness, every 1-5 years.

Q: Can I leave drip tape out during winter?

A: Drip tape is not made to withstand freezing temperatures, so if you live in an area that experiences freezes you will want to winterize or pull up your drip tape at the end of each growing season.

Q: How do I repair drip tape?

A: Repairing drip tape is just as simple as installation, so don’t fret if you notice a leak in your drip tape. Mark the leak with a flag, go turn off the water, then come back to the flag. Cut out the damaged section, and use a fitting to connect the two separate pieces of drip tape into one.
