Autopot Piping

R15.00R55.00

Soft, pliable piping that seals itself around every fitting. Autopot Piping is made from soft PVC — slightly softer and more pliable than agricultural LDPE or PVC irrigation pipe — so its elasticity moulds snugly around pipe fittings for a leak-proof seal in low- and no-pressure applications like AutoPot’s gravity-fed systems.

  • Leak-proof seal: soft PVC grips fittings tightly, ideal for low/no-pressure gravity-fed setups
  • Easy to reconfigure: fittings pull out easily, so you can deconstruct or change your layout
  • Perfect for AQUAvalves: especially recommended for connecting AutoPot Aquavalves thanks to the soft fit
  • Right size for the job: 9mm for Aquavalve 5 systems; 16mm for multi-pot trunk lines

Inner/Outer diameter: 6mm (4.2/6.3mm, for ‘5 or 6mm’ fittings, 6mm grommets, older Aquavalves); 9mm (6.5/9mm, for ‘9mm’ fittings and Aquavalve 5); 16mm (12.5/18.5mm, for ‘12mm’ fittings & 16mm grommets, trunk lines). Drill the correct hole size for Top Hat Grommets. Sold per metre.

Description

Autopot Piping comes in various thicknesses and is made from soft PVC, which is slightly softer and more pliable than agricultural LDPE or PVC irrigation pipe. The elasticity of the Autopot piping molds snugly around pipe fittings when attached, providing a leak-proof seal when used in low and no pressure applications, like Autopot’s gravity fed self watering systems. Fittings can also be removed from the this type of piping quite easily, allowing for easy deconstruction or changes in system layout.

We especially recommend using Autopot piping to connect your Autopot Aquavalves because of the soft fit.

Below is a table of the approximate inner diameter and outer diameter measurements of the various types of Autopot Piping that is available:

General Name Inner Diameter Outer Diameter Compatible Fittings
6 mm 4.2 mm 6.3 mm “5 or 6 mm” Fittings, 6 mm Top Hat Grommets*, Older Aquavalve systems
9 mm 6.5 mm 9 mm “9 mm” Fittings (Used with the new Aquavalve 5 and Aquavalve 5 systems)
16 mm 12.5 mm 18.5 mm “12 mm” Fittings & 16 mm Top Hat Grommets*. Used for trunk lines in multi-pot systems.

* Correct hole size must be drilled to house Top Hat Grommet.

All are sold per meter.
