Based on customer and market feedback, we recently redesigned our high-quality Hunter PLD-LOC Fittings to make field installs easier. As part of this upgrade, the new fittings offer a sleeker profile for better handling and feature the Hunter logo for easy identification in the field.

The original and new fittings share the same functional and performance specifications: they can accommodate 16 mm, 17 mm, and 18 mm dripline or tubing, are available in various configurations, and come with a 2-year warranty. During the rollout period, it’s acceptable to carry inventory or use either fitting style in all applications.

Phased Rollout

To ensure a smooth transition, the new PLD-LOC Fittings will roll out as a running change in two phases with no updates to SKU numbers, barcodes, bag/box quantities, or ordering details. Look below for rollout details and a peek at the updated models.
