The Rain Bird MDCFEL Easy Fit 1/2 in. Compression Elbow is part of the Easy Fit Compression Fitting System designed to simplify tubing connections for low-volume drip and micro-irrigation systems. Its compact elbow body and swivel adapter make direction changes fast and reliable while requiring less installation force than traditional compression fittings. Universal 1/2 in. tubing fit: Accepts 1/2 in. polyethylene tubing with an outside diameter of 0.630"–0.669" (16–17 mm), compatible with most manufacturers' dripline and blank tubing. Low installation force: Easy Fit design reduces insertion force by up to 50% versus competitive compression fittings, making installations and retrofits quicker and easier. Durable, UV-resistant construction: Molded from durable, UV-resistant plastic/ABS to withstand outdoor exposure in above-ground drip and micro-irrigation applications. Wide operating range: Rated for typical drip system pressures (0–60 psi), suitable for residential and commercial low-volume irrigation. Flexible system options: The Easy Fit family of fittings and adapters can be combined into many configurations for tees, couplings and end-of-line flush/cap options; adapters swivel for simplified alignment. Designed for fast maintenance and system expansion, the MDCFEL elbow is intended for above-ground use with standard 1/2 in. polyethylene tubing (not compatible with Rain Bird XBS or XT700 tubing). Use as a single-piece elbow or combine with other Easy Fit adapters for threaded connections, tees, or temporary end-of-line flushing. Check tubing outside diameter before installation to confirm fit.
