Compatibility & Installation Notes
Match 17mm XF dripline and a 3/4-inch male pipe-thread fitting. A female-threaded accessory requires a different transition.
Cut the tubing cleanly and fully seat it on the insert barb. Rain Bird cautions against heating polyethylene tubing before insertion because the connection can be damaged.
Keep the complete zone within its component pressure ratings and follow the dripline requirements for filtration and regulation. This fitting does not provide either function. Flush the line during assembly and inspect the completed connection for leaks.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is XFDFA075 male or female threaded?
It has a 3/4-inch female pipe-thread connection, with a 17mm insert barb at the opposite end.
Is this the elbow or tee adapter?
No. XFDFA075 is the straight barb female adapter. Select the appropriate elbow or tee model if the layout requires a turn or branch.
Can it be selected by tubing outside diameter alone?
No. Match compatible 17mm XF dripline and its insert-fitting requirements as well as the 3/4-inch threaded connection.
Why Buy from Big Frog Supply?
Choose XFDFA075 for a straight 17mm XF-to-3/4-inch male-threaded transition. The female threaded end distinguishes it from the male adapters, and its inline body avoids the extra branch or turn of the tee and elbow options. Check both ends of the connection before ordering so the fitting matches the supply thread and the dripline together.
