2-in-One Drip Irrigation Tubing Hole Punch & Fitting Insertion Tool - for Easier 1/4 Inch Fitting & Emitter Insertion

This tool was key to connecting the main line to the offshoots in my new water irrigation system. The pointy end easily poked the holes needed in the thick main line. Once the hole is made, inserting the smaller lines into the holes is really quite difficult so I tried using the opposite end of this tool (watch the videos on the product page to get an idea of what I mean). It’s a bit clumsy at first (as you have to hold it at just the right angle) but I definitely did end up using it for that second step too. Some cheaper tools just poke the hole, but I’m glad I sprung for this one since it helped me with the insertion step as well. Love my irrigation system and glad this is in my toolbox.

After struggling with the tool provided with another product, this tool made puncturing tubing much easier. Im glad I purchased it. As for the insertion function, I couldnt make it work.

for $8 you cant go wrong. especially if your doing a lot of hole for drip irrigation hose. does exactly what its designed to do and very sharp. Dont bother trying to use the back end for pushing in the spaghetti house to the nipples, it doesnt seem to fit in the groove. a screwdriver nut driver works for pushing in the nipples to the main line much faster.

Puncture end worked really well as expected. The cable connector feature for my application worked really well for my application. I was inserting a barbed fitting into a hose if you put your thumb and forefinger finger as shown in the pictures and press in at a slight angle towards the underside of the tool it pushed in the barb quite easily. There were reviews saying it didn’t work for them but in my application it worked very well.

This item was very easy to use, unlike most other similar devices.

Does what it is supposed to do...

Easy to use, works perfectly

Not expensive and easy to use when adding emitter tubing to my my drip line. Thumbs up!

Very sharp and will easily put a hole in the tubing with little effort. If you are not careful it can poke a hole through the other side. Connectors pop in easily and their are no leaks where tubbing was connected.

I prefer the type that cuts out a plug of the tube instead of this spike.
