I don't know where you got your parts, but my husband passed away a couple of years ago, and I have had to deal with the lawns and the irrigation system, and I sit there, and I push, and I push, and I push, I dip it in hot hot water, and I push, and I push, and I push you to make it look too easy. And wiggle the heck out of it. Let me post what it looks like when I put them together online on your page.

And there's nothing to do with the temperature because today it is 99°. I was working outside at 80°, and it doesn't matter if it's the beginning of spring. It's still not like you make it look like it is hard as heck

Are these directional? Does the colored end need to face where water enters or exits?

Thanks I wanted to to see which direction they needed to face

Can you use WD40 to push them in easier putting them together It's like putting something round into a square peg, it is nearly impossible.

you're using the right size coupling? there's 3 sizes generally. there's also barb fittings - tubing goes over the barb so it's usually less of a struggle

Tip of the day(s): Stop leaking between nut and compression fitting. After fighting with it for 3 days and buying a total of 5 Raindrip compression fittings only to have 100% of them leak, I figured out the secret. #1, don't use Teflon tape and most importantly, crank that thing down until you think it is about to break. I thought the "swivel" meant it should still be able to rotate between nut and compression sleeve. Quite the contrary. It needs to be absolutely tight between them after installed. Hope this saves someone money on Tylenol.

Many thanks. I dealt with this frustration as well and went through 3 swivel adaptors before I realized it was me and not the swivel.

I’m replacing one of these fittings and bought a new one and it’s in the ground for a sprinkler. I can’t get this fitting on to save my life and can’t “soak it in hot water” - no idea what to do

I used 1/2 poly tubing for my garden but I purchased ones with inline emitters spaced to far apart. Can I punch in adjustable emitters in-between them?

I went through this up to just before you said to put the tube in hot water if it was tight. Instead, I stressed out all my arm muscularity trying to get the ends into the connector. After fighting with it for half an hour, I succeeded, and then came in and watched the rest of the video. The first thing it said when I started it back up was the part that I needed to hear first because that was the reason I was looking at the video: I couldn't get the ends to go in. At least I found I was on the right track. :)

Learned from experience: Never try to insert goof plugs or emitters in hot tubing! The main tubing must be cool to the touch so that the emitter or goof plug POPS IN, else with a hot tubing, the attempt usually fails because the tubing just bends/flattens during your insertion attempt and you will usually end up with a big leak.

Great information Barkity Bark. Drip tubing by nature is a thin walled product. When in areas of high heat or direct sunlight, the tubing becomes very soft. We always suggest that when punching holes or repairing holes in the drip tubing, to do so in the mornings or early evenings when the temperature has cooled down.
