Specifications of Flat Emitter Drip Tape

The hydraulic performance of flat emitter drip tape depends on emitter flow rate, emitter spacing, inlet pressure, lateral length and field elevation. Proper matching of these factors is important for maintaining consistent water discharge from the beginning to the end of each irrigation line.

Runnong offers flat emitter drip tape with multiple flow rates and emitter spacing options to suit different crop layouts and irrigation conditions.

How to Choose the Right Flat Emitter Drip Tape


Choosing the right flat emitter drip tape depends on the crop, planting spacing, irrigation area, water source, operating pressure and expected service period. Runnong offers 16mm drip tape with multiple wall thicknesses, emitter spacings and flow rates for different agricultural irrigation projects.

Selection FactorAvailable OptionsWhat to Consider
Diameter16mmSuitable for common agricultural drip irrigation systems
Wall Thickness6–16 mil (0.15–0.40mm)Consider crop cycle, installation method and expected service period
Emitter Spacing10–100cmSelect according to plant spacing, soil conditions and crop root distribution
Flow Rate0.8–4.0 L/HMatch crop water demand, irrigation time and available water supply
Working Pressure0.8–1 barMatch the hydraulic design of the irrigation system

For distributors, farms and irrigation projects that are unsure which 16mm flat emitter drip tape specification to select, send us your crop type, planting spacing, field size, water source and required irrigation length. Our team can help match the appropriate configuration.


How to Choose Drip Tape Wall Thickness


Flat emitter drip tape is available in different wall thicknesses to match different crop cycles, installation conditions and durability requirements.

Choosing the thickest tape is not always necessary. The appropriate thickness should balance service requirements, installation environment and project cost.

Wall ThicknessTypical Selection Consideration
6 mil / approx. 0.15 mmCost-sensitive seasonal irrigation
7–8 milGeneral vegetable and field crop applications
10–12 milApplications requiring greater installation strength
15–16 mil / up to approx. 0.40 mmMore demanding field conditions or projects requiring higher mechanical durability

6–8 Mil Drip Tape

Thinner drip tape is commonly selected for short-cycle crops and seasonal agricultural projects where the tape is installed under controlled field conditions.

Typical applications include:

● Vegetables
● Melons
● Potatoes
● Corn
● Cotton
● Other annual row crops

10–12 Mil Drip Tape

Medium-thickness drip tape provides additional mechanical strength and is suitable when installation conditions are more demanding.

It may be preferred when:

● Mechanical laying equipment is used
● Soil conditions create greater abrasion risk
● Longer field operation is required
● Additional tensile strength is preferred

15–16 Mil Drip Tape

Thicker drip tape offers greater resistance to mechanical damage during handling and installation.

It can be considered for applications where durability is a higher priority than minimum material cost.

Actual service life depends on UV exposure, pressure, installation method, soil conditions, maintenance and handling. Contact Runnong if you need help selecting the appropriate wall thickness for your project.


Applications range of Flat Emitter Drip Tape:

  • Widely used in agricultural planting, it can be buried shallowly underground for precise root irrigation.

  • Suitable for long-term crop cultivation in greenhouses, nurseries, orchards, and other areas.

  • Suitable for multi-season crops.

Flat Emitter Drip Tape for Different Crops and Irrigation Projects


Our agricultural drip tape is designed for precise water and fertilizer delivery in row crops, vegetables, greenhouses and large-scale farming projects.

ApplicationTypical Crops / ScenariosSelection Focus
Vegetable IrrigationTomato, pepper, cucumber, onion and other row vegetablesMatch emitter spacing with planting distance
Field Crop IrrigationCorn, cotton, potato and other field cropsConsider irrigation area, required flow and tape length
Greenhouse IrrigationVegetables, seedlings and intensive plantingPrecise water distribution and fertigation compatibility
Orchard & Vineyard IrrigationFruit trees and grape plantingConsider crop spacing and irrigation layout
Large Farm ProjectsCommercial agricultural irrigationFocus on hydraulic design, roll length, filtration and installation efficiency

Flat emitters are integrated directly into the tape, making inline flat emitter drip tape suitable for projects requiring lightweight installation, flexible emitter spacing and economical irrigation across large planting areas.

For large farms, distributors and irrigation contractors, specifications can be selected according to crop layout and project requirements.


Flat Emitter Drip Tape vs. Cylindrical Drip Line


Flat emitter drip tape and cylindrical drip line are both used for agricultural drip irrigation, but they are designed for different project requirements.

FeatureFlat Emitter Drip TapeCylindrical Drip Line
StructureThin-wall tape with integrated flat emittersPE pipe with cylindrical inline emitters
Main AdvantageLightweight and cost-effectiveMore robust construction
InstallationSuitable for manual or mechanized layingCommonly used for longer-term installations
Typical ApplicationsRow crops, vegetables, greenhouses and large field cropsOrchards, vineyards and longer-term irrigation systems

Flat Emitter Drip Tape Installation and Maintenance


Correct installation and maintenance are important for achieving stable flow and reducing premature damage or emitter blockage.

Before Installation

● Flush the mainline and sub-main before connecting drip tape.
● Install suitable filtration equipment according to irrigation water quality.
● Confirm that operating pressure is within the recommended range.
● Check connectors, valves and fittings for proper compatibility.

During Installation

Lay the drip tape along the crop row without excessive stretching, twisting or sharp bending.

For mechanical installation:

● Adjust laying equipment to avoid excessive tension.
● Prevent the tape from rubbing against sharp metal surfaces.
● Avoid damaging the tape when covering it with soil.
● Keep the emitter orientation consistent according to installation requirements.

System Start-Up

When the irrigation system is first operated:

● Increase pressure gradually.
● Check for leaks at fittings and connectors.
● Confirm pressure at both the inlet and end of the lateral.
● Observe emitter discharge along the line.
● Flush the end of each drip tape lateral before closing it.

Routine Maintenance

To maintain reliable irrigation performance:

● Clean filters regularly.
● Flush drip tape laterals periodically.
● Monitor inlet and end-line pressure.
● Inspect for physical damage or leakage.
● Check water quality when clogging becomes frequent.
● Avoid operating above the recommended working pressure.

For fertigation systems, flush the irrigation lines with clean water after fertilizer application when necessary.
