Brand: Rain Bird | SKU: SW20/10PK
Product Overview
The Rain Bird SW20/10PK bag contains 10 red spot watering emitters, each rated for a nominal 2 gallons per hour. Use them to place water near individual plants through a compatible drip-tubing layout. Pressure compensation helps maintain consistent delivery between 15 and 50 psi.
Key Features
- Bag of 10 emitters; each emitter delivers a nominal 2 GPH.
- Red color identifies the 2 GPH flow rate.
- Self-piercing inlet barb for compatible 1/2-inch or 3/4-inch drip tubing.
- Outlet barb accepts compatible 1/4-inch distribution tubing.
- Self-flushing action helps reduce clogging.
- UV-resistant plastic construction.
Common Uses
- Targeted watering around shrubs, trees and container plants.
- Adding watering points to an existing compatible drip-tubing lateral.
- Replacing emitters where the watering plan calls for 2 GPH.

Dimensions
The 1/2-inch, 3/4-inch and 1/4-inch sizes identify compatible tubing, not the emitter’s overall dimensions. Check the tubing fit and leave space to seat both barbs fully, inspect the connections and keep the discharge clear of soil.
Compatibility & Installation Notes
Flush the tubing and provide upstream filtration and pressure regulation appropriate to the drip zone. Seat the inlet barb in compatible supply tubing; connect 1/4-inch distribution tubing to the outlet when needed. For short branches under 5 feet, Rain Bird illustrates an emitter at the main tubing with a branch to the plant; for branches over 5 feet, it recommends placing the emitter inline near the plant. Support the outlet as needed and check delivery after installation. The manufacturer’s Xeri-Bug installation-options sheet illustrates several emitter layouts and connection types; use the barb-inlet layout for these emitters. Threaded models, stakes, diffuser caps and manifolds shown in family illustrations are separate items. Maintain 15–50 psi and include each installed emitter’s 2 GPH in the total zone flow. Self-flushing action does not eliminate the need for filtration.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many emitters come in SW20/10PK?
The bag contains 10 emitters, each with a nominal flow of 2 GPH.
What tubing do these emitters fit?
The self-piercing inlet fits compatible nominal 1/2-inch or 3/4-inch drip tubing, and the outlet barb accepts compatible 1/4-inch distribution tubing.
Do pressure-compensating emitters need a filter?
Yes. Provide upstream filtration of 150–200 mesh / 75–100 micron and maintain 15–50 psi at the emitters.
Why Buy from Big Frog Supply?
Choose this 10-pack for a small extension or replacement work where each watering point needs 2 GPH. The red flow code helps match existing emitters, and the self-piercing barb fits compatible 1/2-inch or 3/4-inch drip tubing. Count 20 GPH in the zone demand if you install all ten, and choose the run time to suit the plants and soil.
