6mm Micro Elbow – Precision 90-Degree Connector for Spaghetti Tube (Bag of 100)
Maintaining a tidy and efficient irrigation layout requires the ability to navigate tight spaces without compromising flow. The 6mm Micro Elbow is the professional solution for creating sharp, 90-degree turns in your micro-irrigation network. While standard 6mm "spaghetti" tube is naturally flexible, forcing it into tight corners can lead to kinking, which restricts nutrient delivery and creates uneven pressure across your plant sites. These high-quality elbows allow you to route your feeder lines flush against grow trays, pots, and tent poles with precision. These fittings represent the industry benchmark for reliability, ensuring your precision fertigation system remains leak-free and fully operational.
Best For: Navigating sharp corners in grow tents, routing micro-tubing around individual pots, and preventing kinks in precision drip irrigation and Drip-Eze systems.
Key Features
- Kink-Free Precision: Provides a rigid 90-degree internal path that maintains a constant diameter through the turn, eliminating the flow restrictions and pressure drops caused by bent micro-tubing.
- High-Tensile Barbed Grip: Engineered with sharp barbs that bite deeply into the 6mm tubing, providing superior pull-out resistance and a permanent, leak-proof seal.
- Premium Quality: Built to professional agricultural standards, these fittings offer superior UV-stabilisation and chemical resistance compared to generic alternatives.
- Universal 6mm Compatibility: Specifically designed for use with all standard 6mm Micro Tube (Spaghetti Tube) and Toro 6mm Drip-Eze drip tubing.
- Opaque Algae Prevention: The deep black pigmentation ensures total light blockage, preventing algae from colonising the fitting and protecting your micro-emitters from organic blockages.
- Bulk 100-Piece Value: An essential bulk pack for outfitting large-scale multi-pot systems or performing complex manifold builds in commercial facilities.
Specifications
- Size: 6mm (Internal Diameter)
- Fitting Type: 90-Degree Barbed Elbow
- Material: UV-Stabilised, High-Impact Polymer
- Quantity: 100 Pieces per Bag
- Application: Hydroponics, Precision Drip, and Micro-Irrigation
Installation & Maintenance Tips
- The "Hot Water" Technique: If you find the micro-tubing difficult to push onto the barbs, dip the end of the tubing in warm water for 5 seconds. This softens the plastic, allowing the elbow to slide on effortlessly for a tighter seal as it cools.
- Square Cuts: Use a sharp blade or dedicated tube cutter to ensure a perfectly square cut on your spaghetti tube. A flat end allows the tubing to seat fully against the shoulder of the elbow, providing maximum surface area for the barbs to grip.
- System Uniformity: When using elbows, ensure they are pushed on completely. Even a small gap between the tube and the fitting shoulder can create minor turbulence that may affect drip uniformity in high-precision systems.
Ideal For (Uses)
- Spaghetti Line Routing: Neatly directing feeder lines from a 13mm or 19mm main manifold to individual plant stakes.
- Drip-Eze Systems: Creating professional corners in 6mm drip-line layouts for small-scale garden beds or propagation trays.
- Space Management: Helping to keep your grow room floor and benching clear of messy, looped tubing by allowing for flush, right-angle plumbing runs.
Oversized Item Delivery Options
Oversized, heavy, and structural goods ship via specialist freight. Freight is calculated at checkout from estimated packaged volumetric or physical weight. Carrier depot audits may adjust the rate — if the increase exceeds 10%, we will contact you before processing.
Available options include:
✔ Delivery to your closest depot for pickup — default method
✔ Direct delivery — requires an operational forklift on site unless Tailgate Delivery has been specifically requested and quoted (contact us — this cannot be selected at checkout)
✔ Tailgate hydraulic lift delivery — must be specifically requested; contact us for a quote (not available as a checkout option; extra fees apply; required if you do not have a forklift)
✔ Forklift loading at our warehouse (no extra charge if you arrange your own freight)
✔ Direct truck delivery (available in Victoria)
Important Notes:
- Shipping costs vary by location and method
- Any carton or consignment over 25–30kg (or over 200cm) must be palletised
- Without a specifically requested and paid Tailgate Delivery quote, palletised freight requires a forklift on site — otherwise the carrier will redirect to the nearest depot
- Bulky and oversized items cannot be delivered to a PO Box — provide a physical street address
- Failed deliveries, locked gates, unattended sites, or incorrect business/forklift declarations may incur carrier redelivery, demurrage, and restocking fees as set out in our Terms & Conditions
Business Delivery:
- Selecting a business/commercial delivery rate warrants that the address has an operational forklift and certified operator during business hours
- If the carrier cannot unload, the consignment may be redirected to a depot and secondary fees may apply
- Additional fees may apply for failed delivery attempts due to lack of appropriate unloading equipment
See our Terms & Conditions (Article 8) for full freight and delivery rules.
Important Note on Availability & Shipping
Our warehouse is a logistics hub, not a retail showroom. Listing a product online does not mean it is stored at our Thomastown warehouse — many lines ship from supplier hubs (split fulfilment may apply).
How lead times work:
- Product page ETA: The Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) / lead-time badge shown on the product page at checkout is the agreed delivery timeframe for that order under Australian Consumer Law.
- Metro baselines: Advertised ETAs apply to standard metropolitan zones. Regional and remote addresses may take longer and may attract surcharges.
- Peak seasons: Orders in March–May, August–October, EOFY (June), Black Friday/Cyber Monday (November), and Christmas/New Year (December–January) may automatically add a 2–4 week buffer beyond the product page ETA.
- Supplier-dependent / backordered items: If stock is delayed, we will notify you with a revised ETA. You then have 7 days to accept the new timeframe or cancel for a full refund.
- Adloheat: Custom-made products from Adloheat (Pakenham, VIC) may take 4–12 weeks depending on the order.
Full fulfilment, cancellation, and freight rules are in our Terms & Conditions.
