The QF Dripline Header is a patent pending product that is the landscape industry’s first pre-fabricated header for dripline installations. A Quick and Flexible replacement for a site-built header, the QF Dripline Header saves time and labor expense. Using a proprietary blend of polyethylene, similar to Rain Bird’s XF Series Dripline, the QF Dripline header allows installers to simply roll out the header and attach the dripline at guaranteed 12” or 18” spacing. Eliminating the need for measuring, cutting, gluing and taping, the QF Dripline Header saves time and money, making projects more profitable.
Features
The QF Dripline Header elbows rotate 360º and incorporate a protective ring — preventing damage and ensuring a proper seal
The ring also provides leverage to make attaching the dripline easier
The rotating barb manages trenching misalignment. Move left or right to accommodate the dripline – no need to re-trench
The QF Dripline Header is designed to work with Rain Bird’s all-new TLF Series - Twist Lock Fittings (¾” and 1” fitting models) which provide an even tighter seal on tubing by using high quality elbows and twist locking nuts
Applications The QF Dripline Header is an innovative product developed by the Rain Bird Landscape Drip Division to be a replacement for site-built headers in dripline installations. Its performance characteristics match PVC in terms of flow and pressure ratings.
This Quick and Flexible product was specifically designed to eliminate the high labor costs and hassle associated with site-built headers. The flexibility and durability of the QF Header makes it ideal for curved or nonlinear landscapes,making installation quick and easy.
Performance The QF Header has comparable design characteristics to a PVC header using the 5ft per second rule. It has similar volume and pressure performance to ensure proper flow to the dripline grid or other drip irrigation systems.
