QF Dripline Header

The Rain Bird QF Dripline Header saves a significant amount of time and money and reduces hassles by eliminating the need to build a PVC header. Rain Bird says that the QF Header allows for much faster and more precise installations of both on-surface and sub-surface dripline grids. 

“Compared to a site-built header constructed of PVC pipe, fittings, tape and glue, the time savings are significant,” said Chuck Kunze, Rain Bird product manager. “Based on time-motion studies of accomplished irrigation industry workers, each 100 foot coil of QF Dripline Header represents 3.5 hours of labor savings.  Simply roll out and make one cut to length – no more measuring, gluing or taping required.”

• Patent-pending design features robust pre-installed fittings (compatible with any manufacturer’s 16-17mm dripline) that rotate 360⁰ and incorporate a protective ring to prevent barb damage and ensure a proper seal
• Available in 100’ self-dispensing coils of 3/4” or 1” tubing and with fitting spacing of either 12” or 18”
• The flexibility of the QF Header makes it easy to roll into place and stake down—even with curved landscape features
• Can be used as either a supply or exhaust header and connects to the zone using standard 3/4” and 1” compression fittings, lock fittings and insert fittings with clamps
• The precise spacing of the fittings ensures that the dripline grid is uniform which is critical to efficient watering
