Blumat Fastening – pipe supports and safety clips for irrigation systems

Blumat Fastening – tube supports and safety clips for irrigation systems

Fastening accessories for the Blumat capillary irrigation system, the Austrian brand that irrigates using ceramic cones without electricity or a pump. A properly secured installation is one that does not move, does not disconnect, and irrigates just as well on the last day as it did on the first.

Two complementary solutions: the supports keep the tube straight and in place within the substrate, and the safety clips mechanically lock any Blumat connection so that it cannot come loose.

Key features

• Supports (pack of 10): secure the tube straight in the substrate and prevent it from shifting or bending.
• Required with drip distributors: if you use drip distributors, supports are essential to ensure correct water distribution.
• Safety clips (pack of 5): secure any connection in the Blumat system against accidental disconnections.
• Tamper-resistant: once installed, the clips can only be removed with a screwdriver, making them ideal for professional use or shared spaces.
• Modular system: they integrate with the rest of the Blumat components without special tools.

How to use

Supports: drive the support into the substrate at the point where the tube passes through and snap it into place so that the tube remains straight and stable. Repeat every few centimeters or at every change of direction so that the line does not shift during irrigation or when handling the plants.

Safety clips: first, make the Blumat connection as usual, check that the tube is fully inserted and that there are no leaks, and then place the clip over the connection until it snaps into place. To remove it later, you will need to pry it with a screwdriver: this is intentional, so that no one accidentally loosens the connection.

What is it compatible with?

The Blumat system works with two proprietary diameters that are NOT interchangeable:

• Ø8 mm — main supply line: the tube that distributes water from the tank throughout the installation.
• Ø3 mm — sensor feeder: the silicone microtube that carries water from the main line to each ceramic cone.

Parts of one diameter do not fit the other: always check which tube you will be working on before ordering. The safety clips are designed to secure Blumat system connections, and the supports to hold the tube in the substrate. They are required when drip distributors are used.

Every item goes through a check before shipping to make sure it arrives in perfect condition and ready to use.

Your satisfaction is our priority.

1. Decide on the path of the tube before securing anything and place it in its final position.
2. Stake each support into the substrate at the passage points and at changes in direction.
3. Fit the tube into the support so that it is straight and stable.
4. Perform the Blumat connection as usual and check that the tube is fully inserted.
5. Place the safety clip over the connection until it snaps into place.
6. To disassemble it, pry it open with a screwdriver: it cannot be removed any other way.
