Rain Bird SW10-30PK 1 GPH Spot Watering Emitters — Bag of 30

Brand: Rain Bird | SKU: SW10-30PK

Product Overview

The Rain Bird SW10-30PK bag contains thirty black emitters, each delivering a nominal 1 gallon per hour. Use them to place water near individual shrubs, garden plants or containers. Pressure compensation helps keep delivery consistent as pressure varies within the 15–50 psi operating range.

Key Features

• Thirty emitters per bag, each rated for a nominal 1 GPH.
• Black color identifies the 1 GPH flow selection.
• Self-piercing barb inlet for compatible 1/2-inch or 3/4-inch drip tubing.
• Barb outlet accepts compatible 1/4-inch distribution tubing.
• Self-flushing action helps reduce clogging.
• UV-resistant plastic construction.

Common Uses

• Adding individual watering points in garden and landscape beds.
• Watering container plants through a compatible drip-tubing layout.
• Replacing emitters where the watering plan calls for 1 GPH.

Dimensions

The tubing sizes identify connections rather than the emitter’s overall height or width. Leave enough room to seat the barbs fully, inspect the tubing and keep the outlet clear of soil and mulch.

Compatibility & Installation Notes

Flush the tubing and provide upstream filtration and suitable zone pressure regulation. Insert the self-piercing inlet into compatible supply tubing, then connect 1/4-inch distribution tubing to the outlet when needed. Rain Bird illustrates an emitter at the main tubing for branches under 5 feet and recommends placing it inline near the plant for branches over 5 feet. Support the outlet as needed and check delivery after installation. The family installation-options sheet includes other connection types and accessories; threaded emitters, stakes, diffuser caps and manifolds shown there are separate items. Maintain 15–50 psi and include each emitter’s 1 GPH in the zone total. Self-flushing action does not remove the need for a filter.

Why Buy from Big Frog Supply?

Choose SW10-30PK when a larger planting layout or replacement supply calls for black 1 GPH emitters.
