Product Information

Full details

The HydroSure Goof Plugs in Black are designed for gardeners using 4mm micro pipe or dripline irrigation systems. They offer a simple and effective solution for sealing unwanted holes or acting as an end cap, ensuring your irrigation system runs efficiently without water loss. While they provide a robust seal, their primary function is for temporary adjustments or specific hole sealing, not as a permanent joint solution for larger diameter pipes.

FAQs

What size tubing are these goof plugs compatible with?

These HydroSure Goof Plugs are specifically designed for 4mm diameter micro pipe, drip line, and soaker hose.

Can I use these to connect two pieces of 4mm pipe?

No, these goof plugs are designed for sealing holes or acting as an end stop, not for connecting pipes together.

Are these plugs suitable for high-pressure irrigation systems?

These plugs are intended for low-pressure drip irrigation systems and may not withstand high water pressure.

How do I remove a goof plug once it's inserted?

Grip the plug firmly and pull it out of the pipe. A slight twisting motion might help if it's very tight.

Will these plugs degrade in sunlight?

No, they are made from UV-resistant materials to withstand prolonged sun exposure.

Can I use these on standard LDPE irrigation pipe?

Yes, they are compatible with LDPE irrigation pipe for plugging holes.

Troubleshooting

Plug is difficult to insert into the pipe.

Ensure the end of the 4mm pipe is clean and free from obstructions. Slightly moistening the plug or the pipe opening can sometimes help with insertion.

Plug leaks water after insertion.

Confirm the plug is fully seated and that the correct size (4mm) pipe is being used. Ensure there are no cracks in the pipe where the plug is inserted. Check if the hole is too large for a standard goof plug.

Plug came loose from the pipe.

The pipe may have been damaged or the plug was not inserted with sufficient force. Re-insert the plug, ensuring it is firmly seated. If the pipe is damaged, consider repairing or replacing that section.
