Insert Male Adapters

There are two halves of a poly male adapter. One side has a barbed connection, and the other is threaded. Start the connection process by inserting the barbed end into your pipe. The pipe is pushed over the barbed section, which grips the inside of the pipe, creating a tight seal and preventing leaks. Next, the other end of the adapter with male threads (external threads) can be screwed into the female-threaded component, like sprinkler heads or other fittings. Sprinkler male adapters require no special tools or adhesives. You simply push the barbed end into the pipe and screw the threaded end into the sprinkler or other component.
