The TL050MA has 1\/2″ male NPT threads on the inlet and a 17mm insert barb on the outlet — thread it into any 1\/2″ female fitting (tee, coupler, valve outlet, sprinkler riser swap), push the Techline dripline onto the barb, and the manifold is built. OEM Netafim, so the barb-to-ID fit is engineered for the 0.56″–0.60″ Techline ID range — not a generic 1\/2″ barb that fits four sizes badly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy Netafim Is the Right Match\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOEM Netafim — the same brand as your 17mm Techline dripline, so the barb seals correctly without a clamp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2″ male NPT inlet — threads into any standard 1\/2″ female fitting (PVC tee, coupler, valve outlet, sprinkler riser hole)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e17mm barb outlet — sized for Netafim Techline HCVXR, HCVXR-RW\/RWP, CV, DL, RW\/RWP, and 17mm PE irrigation hose in the 0.56–0.60″ ID range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTool-free push-fit on the barb side — no clamps needed (the barb seals against the dripline ID)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUV resistant — survives direct sun and the chemistry of irrigation water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne-piece molded construction — no joints, nothing to come apart underground in year five\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere It Shines\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManifold builds — thread into a 1\/2″ PVC tee or coupler off the supply, push the Techline onto the barb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrop-down off a sprinkler riser — swap the sprinkler nozzle\/body for a 1\/2″ cap, thread the TL050MA in, and route Techline to the bed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFaucet-to-drip conversion — thread into a 1\/2″ faucet adapter for hose-bib drip kits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eService-call retrofits — replace a failed clamped-style threaded adapter with the OEM Netafim push-fit version\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: TL050MA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInlet: 1\/2″ male NPT thread\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutlet: 17mm insert barb — fits 0.56″ to 0.60″ ID dripline\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with: Netafim Techline HCVXR, HCVXR-RW\/RWP, CV, DL, RW\/RWP, and 17mm PE irrigation hose (0.56–0.60″ ID range)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeometry: Straight-through (threaded inlet, barbed outlet)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnection: Tool-free push-fit on barb side; NPT thread on inlet (wrap with PTFE tape or pipe sealant)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstruction: One-piece molded plastic, UV-resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse: Buried or surface, residential \/ commercial drip irrigation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApproximate weight: 1 lb per pack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: Netafim USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eInstall Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWrap the 1\/2″ male NPT threads with 2–3 layers of PTFE tape (or use approved pipe-thread sealant); hand-tight plus a quarter turn with a wrench\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCut the dripline square with a sharp knife or PE pipe cutter (a ragged cut won’t seal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePush the dripline fully home onto the 17mm barb — the last barb ridge should be inside the tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo clamp required on the barb side — the Netafim-engineered fit seals against the Techline ID\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePressure-test before backfilling the trench\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor 12mm Techline EZ — this is the wrong size; use Netafim Model T12050MA instead\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor 3\/4″ male NPT inlet on 17mm Techline — use Netafim Model TL075MA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePair With\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor inline splices in 17mm Techline, use the Netafim \u003cstrong\u003eTLCOUP\u003c\/strong\u003e insert coupling.
