QF Dripline Header
A Quick and Flexible Solution to Dripline Headers
The QF Dripline Header is a patent pending product that is the landscape
industry’s rst pre-fabricated header for dripline installations. A Quick and
Flexible replacement for a site-built header, the QF Dripline Header saves
time and labor expense. Using a proprietary blend of polyethylene, similar
to Rain Bird’s XF Series Dripline, the QF Dripline header allows installers to
simply roll out the header and attach the dripline at guaranteed 12” or 18”
spacing. Eliminating the need for measuring, cutting, gluing and taping,
the QF Dripline Header saves time and money, making projects more
protable.
Features
• The QF Dripline Header elbows rotate 360º and incorporate a protective
ring — preventing damage and ensuring a proper seal.
• The ring also provides leverage to make attaching the dripline easier.
• The rotating barb manages trenching misalignment. Move left or right to
accommodate the dripline – no need to re-trench.
• Elbows utilize the same design as Rain Bird’s popular XFF Fitting requiring
50% less insertion force, and are compatible with the XFF Fittings Tool.
