Drip Crimp is a patented system that secures irrigation drip emitter’s to hose ends with a crimp tool and copper ring. When crimped with the specially designed crimp tool, the copper ring encapsulates the bulge in the 1/4” poly drip line that the emitter barb makes when inserted. Wrapping this bulge in copper not only secures the emitter in the line, it shields the line from the corrosive elements. The copper ring will extend the life of the system, dramatically eliminating the need to constantly cut and re-insert emitters. DRIP CRIMP supports both existing systems with aged lines and new systems.
