I got this hose (500 foot 1/2 with OD of 0.620) to correct a garden watering system that I put together incorrectly. Previously it was using full 1/4 all around and nearly nothing was working as the garden run was the same feed as one that goes up onto the front porch to water hanging baskets and fill a bird bath.I tested this by running this tube maybe 40 or 50 feet, and used a number of fittings by La Farah. These 1/2 fittings (tested elbows, 1x 1/4 Tee, 4x 1/4 Tee) with 27 sprinkler heads and 7 drippers, and it all worked wonderfully. This was connected to a 2 way splitter on the sillcock, then a 25 PSI regulator, then a raindrip timer box into a 1/2 fitting. Everything worked wonderfully, better than I expected.The only suggestion I can give is try to keep 1/4 endpoints to NO MORE than 1 or 2 to a 1/4 Tee. The exception is the drippers, which I have 5x 1/4 - 1 GPH drippers and 15 feet of elevation and 50 feet of length without issues.I look forward to getting this installed for automated garden irrigation.
