White Poly Tubing - 6mm Precision Micro-Irrigation – Heat-Reflective Feed Line (100m Roll)
Optimising the temperature of your nutrient solution is a critical factor in achieving elite-level growth and maintaining high dissolved oxygen levels. Our White 6mm Poly Tubing provides unique thermal benefits that make it an excellent choice for both indoor and outdoor hydroponic systems. The bright white exterior is specifically engineered to reflect light and radiant heat, effectively keeping your nutrient solution cool as it travels to your plants. This prevents the heat-soak common in darker tubing, reducing the risk of root pathogens and thermal stress. This 100-metre roll is the professional solution for growers who demand precision, durability, and superior environmental control.
Best For: Heat-sensitive hydroponic setups, high-intensity indoor grow rooms, outdoor greenhouse fertigation, and precision micro-drip installations.
Key Features
- Thermal Reflective Properties: The bright white finish reflects light and heat away from the line, helping to maintain stable, cool nutrient temperatures even under intense lighting or direct sun.
- UV-Stabilised for Longevity: Advanced UV stabilisers are integrated into the tubing to prevent brittleness and cracking, ensuring the line remains supple and reliable over multiple growing seasons.
- Light-Proof Internal Core: Engineered to remain opaque despite the white exterior, this tubing blocks 100% of light penetration to halt algae growth and keep your micro-emitters clear.
- Superior Micro-Flexibility: The 6mm profile is highly pliable, allowing for intricate routing around pots and benching without kinking or restricting the vital flow of nutrients to your root zone.
- Chemical & Salt Resistance: Constructed from high-quality LDPE that is resistant to the mineral salts and pH adjusters found in concentrated hydroponic fertilisers.
- Universal 6mm Compatibility: Precision-fit for all standard 4mm/6mm barbed micro-fittings, dripper stakes, and "take-off" connectors for a secure, leak-free system.
Specifications
- Colour: Bright White (Heat-Reflective)
- Diameter: 6mm (External) / 4mm (Internal)
- Length: 100 Metre Roll
- Material: UV-Stabilised Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE)
- Application: Precision Micro-Drip and Fertigation Systems
Installation & Maintenance Tips
- Maintain Uniformity: To ensure every plant in your system receives the same amount of feed, keep your 6mm white feeder lines at consistent lengths from the main manifold.
- The "Hot Water" Seal: For a faster and more secure installation onto barbed fittings, dip the end of the tubing in warm water for a few seconds to soften the plastic before pushing it into place.
- Clean Cut Accuracy: Use a sharp pipe cutter or blade to achieve a perfectly square cut. This ensures the tubing seats flush against the fitting barbs, preventing leaks under pump pressure.
Ideal For (Uses)
- High-Heat Grow Tents: Managing nutrient temperatures in environments where LED or HPS lights generate high radiant heat at the canopy level.
- Greenhouse Cultivation: Protecting your irrigation lines from the degrading effects of solar radiation while keeping the feed water at an optimal temperature.
- Top-Feed Drip Systems: The primary choice for delivering cool, oxygen-rich nutrients to individual plants in coco-coir, rockwool, or perlite.
Oversized Item Delivery Options
Since oversized items require special handling, we may need to provide a custom freight quote for your order and will contact you with an updated shipping rate.
Available options include:
✔ Delivery to your closest depot for pickup - default method
✔ Direct delivery - requires forklift on site
✔ Direct delivery with tailgate lift truck (extra fees apply)
✔ Forklift loading at our warehouse (no extra charge if you arrange your own freight)

Business Delivery:
- Business delivery is available for commercial customers only
- If you select business delivery and your products are bulky, it is your responsibility to ensure you have appropriate equipment (including forklifts) to unload products from the delivery truck
- If you select business delivery and you are not a business, you risk your product not being delivered and may incur additional fees to retrieve your order
- Business delivery customers must provide a valid business address and contact information
- Additional fees may apply for failed delivery attempts due to lack of appropriate unloading equipment
Let us know your preference, and we'll arrange the best solution for you!
Important Note on Availability & Shipping
Our warehouse serves as our office and logistics centre rather than a retail showroom. Because we ship from multiple locations and manage high-turnover stock, not all items are available for immediate pickup.
Lead Times:
- In-Stock Items: Usually ready for dispatch the same day.
- Supplier-Dependent Items: Usually take 2–8 weeks to arrive, depending on supplier availability. Products from Adloheat may take 8–12 weeks to manufacture—they are made to order in Australia by a small business, and longer lead times reflect the care put into quality.
While we strive for fast delivery, some timelines are subject to supplier availability and are beyond our control. We appreciate your patience as we source the best quality gear for your project.
Biosecurity & Interstate Shipping Restrictions
Due to strict state biosecurity regulations, we are unable to ship some products to certain states and territories:
- Potting Mixes cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA), the Northern Territory (NT), or Tasmania (TAS).
- Seeds cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA).
Orders placed for these items to restricted states will be cancelled and refunded. It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that the items being ordered can lawfully be delivered to their state or territory.
