XFS Sub-Surface Dripline with Copper
Shield
™
Technology
Sub-Surface Drip Irrigation (SDI) perfect for small, narrow and tight
planting areas, switchbacks, as well as all turf landscapes
n
Rain Bird® XFS Sub-Surface Dripline with Copper Shield™ Technology
is the latest innovation in the Rain Bird Xerigation® Family. Rain Bird’s
patent-pending Copper Shield Technology protects the emitter from
root intrusion, creating a long-lasting, low maintenance sub-surface
drip irrigation system for use under turf grass or shrub and groundcover
areas
n Through the use of a proprietary tubing material, the XFS Sub-Surface
Dripline with Copper Shield
™
is the most flexible dripline tubing in the
industry making it the easiest sub-surface dripline to design with and
install
n It accepts Rain Bird Easy Fit Compression Fittings, XF Dripline Barbed
Insert Fittings and other 17 mm barbed insert fittings
