Rain Bird BF-82-75 lock quick union coupling to ¾-inch M - lock fitting for 16 mm tubing

Adapter from 16 mm tubing to ¾" male thread

The Rain Bird BF-82-75 is a straight lock fitting with a 16 mm Lock Quick connection and a ¾" male thread. It allows suitable 16 mm dripline or distribution tubing to be connected directly to an irrigation component with a compatible ¾" female threaded connection.

This makes the BF-82-75 an ideal transition between 16 mm irrigation tubing and components with threaded connections. It can be used when installing a new drip irrigation system or extending an existing installation.

16 mm lock fitting to ¾" male thread

On the tubing side, the BF-82-75 features a Rain Bird Lock Quick connection for suitable irrigation tubing with a 16 mm outside diameter. The opposite side features a ¾" male threaded connection.

This combination makes it easy to connect 16 mm irrigation tubing to components with a corresponding ¾" female thread. Depending on the irrigation layout, this can reduce the number of additional adapters required.

Secure Lock Quick connection

The Rain Bird Lock Quick system provides a quick and reliable connection for irrigation tubing. The tubing is inserted into the locking connection and securely fixed in place without the need to glue the tubing end.

The easy-to-use connection simplifies initial installation as well as subsequent extensions or modifications to an existing drip irrigation system.

For dripline and distribution tubing

The BF-82-75 is suitable for irrigation tubing with a 16 mm outside diameter. Rain Bird specifies the Lock Quick range for both dripline and suitable blank or distribution tubing.

This allows the adapter to be used in irrigation systems for planting beds, hedges, shrubs, raised beds and other landscaped areas. Rain Bird XF Dripline is also among the intended applications of the Lock Quick fitting system.

Practical transition to threaded connections

Different types of connections are frequently combined within a drip irrigation system. While 16 mm irrigation tubing commonly uses locking fittings, other components may use conventional threaded connections.

The BF-82-75 provides a direct transition between these two connection types. The ¾" male thread connects to a suitable component with a female thread, while the 16 mm irrigation tubing is connected on the opposite side.
