6 Mil: Short season / Use on trial basis to see if it works 8 Mil: Standard / full season /under plastic or along rows 10 Mil: Overwinter / rocky soil / more insect resistance. 15 Mil: Multi-season for small fruits, etc. overwintering
Choosing a tape flow rate:
The main thing to consider is the row length. Also consider: type of crop, zone/field size, available water and supply line size. For rolling fields we recommend Flow Control tape. 4" 1.0: for greenhouses, germinating beds, for row crops in sandy soils, up to 300' level rows. 6 - 8": for row crops in lighter soil, up to 500' level row 12" .45: standard for row crops, up to 600' level rows. 12" .34: for row crops, larger zones, to 800' level rows. 16" .25 or 12" .22: for row crops, to 1000' level rows. Downhill sloping fields allow longer lengths.
Greater filtration area with patent-pending Multi-Stage filters. Optimized flow passages further resist clogging. Toro Aqua-Traxx® Azul™ drip tape offers an innovative emitter design that protects the labyrinth from debris and maximizes clog resistance and performance. Now you get the same great quality and performance you expect from Aqua-Traxx with even more clog resistance and less worry.
