Irrigation Drip Tape Layer Printable Catalog Page (opens a new window)
The most popular attachment for plastic mulch layers is an irrigation drip tape layer. It includes a stand to hold one or two reels of drip tape on the machine and a ground feed tube which lays the drip tape on the surface of the bed under the plastic mulch. The ground tube is made of stainless steel and includes a heat-treated wear guard for longer life. A smooth heavy-duty polymer guide funnel minimizes cuts and tears in the drip tape as it enters the ground tube. The funnel is very simple and inexpensive to replace, compared to repairing other manufacturers’ guide systems. The drip tape layer includes a disc-brake mechanism to prevent spool backlash during starts and stops. Its spindle and side plates accept all styles of drip irrigation tape. The mounting brackets for the reel stand and ground tube allow sideways adjustment so the irrigation tape can be located exactly where desired on the planting bed. The system is available with a double reel stand to hold a second roll of tape. A subsoil shank is available to place the drip tape at a depth below the surface of the bed. A variety of different ground tubes are also available. Round ground tubes are most often used because they allow the drip tape to pass freely with minimal clogging or restrictions. Flat ground tubes are used when growers have a difficult time getting the drip tape to lay flat on the bed.
