2-in-One Drip Irrigation Tubing Hole Punch & Fitting Insertion Tool - for Easier 1/4 Inch Fitting & Emitter Insertion

I wanted to upgrade my sprinklers for my flower bed on my new home. Installing a drip system is not rocket science so I bought this tool to assist in puncturing the hole in the main line. I use tools for a living so I can normally figure out how a tool functions and get it to work. Puncturing the line was not a problem, but when it came time to use the insertion part on the back of the tool the fitting kept slipping out. Maybe I was doing something wrong but after many attempts I just used my hands and force to do the job. There are other tools on the market for a little more money and if I attempt this again I will invest in a tool that is better for getting the fittings connected easier.

After struggling with the tool provided with another product, this tool made puncturing tubing much easier. Im glad I purchased it. As for the insertion function, I couldnt make it work.

It works.

A simple answer to my problems putting irrigation tubes and parts together. Im not as nimble as others working with this technology. This tool helped me become nimble.

Best tool Ive found for the job

This tool is very VERY sharp and goes right through the plastic. The other end makes it easy to put in your attachment

Dont buy this... you couldnt GIVE me one. Rainbird has one that is somewhat better.

I just used this tool for the first time a few minutes ago to make a hole in a main line tube (1/2 Toro Blue Stripe) and insert a small tube with a drip head. 1. The hole puncher worked very well. It so easily punched a hole that I advise to be careful you dont punch out the other side. A few careful back and forth movements with a bit of pressure, and you have your hole. Also, the tip is sharp. Dont poke a hole in your finger and save the protective cap the tool comes with. 2. The other end made it very easy to insert the drip line into the hole. I know some people said they had problems with this, but I just threaded the line in like it showed in the video, put a finger or thumb over the open edge of the channel the line goes in, and inserted the line into the hole at very slightly off 90 degrees with a bit of pressure and a few back and forth movements. The tool seems well made. I highly recommend this product for maintaining your drip system.

Not expensive and easy to use when adding emitter tubing to my my drip line. Thumbs up!

No problems
