17MM BARB X 3/4 MIPT ADAPTER

A 17MM Barb x 3/4" MIPT adapter is an irrigation fitting used to connect drip tubing to threaded pipe or valves.

What it is:

• 17MM side (barb): connects to 17 mm drip/HDL polyethylene irrigation tubing
• 3/4" MIPT side: male iron pipe thread that screws into valves, risers, filters, or PVC fittings

What it does:

It creates a transition between:

• Drip irrigation tubing (metric 17 mm)
  ➡️ and
• Standard 3/4" threaded plumbing/irrigation components

Common use:

• Drip irrigation systems
• Sprinkler zone conversions
• Valve or manifold connections
• Landscape watering systems

Typical characteristics:

• Material: polypropylene or acetal plastic
• Pressure rating: ~100 PSI (varies by brand)
• No glue required (barb grip + threaded seal)
• Often used without clamps for low-pressure drip systems

Example products:

• Hunter PLD 17 mm x 3/4" MIPT adapter
• Rain Bird XF 17 mm x 3/4" barb x MIPT adapter
• Netafim 17 mm x 3/4" male adapter

Simple summary:

It’s just a drip irrigation “bridge fitting” that connects 17 mm tubing to standard 3/4-inch threaded plumbing parts.
