Description
1/2″ Hydrodare Heavy Gauge
1/2″ Hydrodare Heavy Gauge is a flexible, durable low-density polyethylene (LDPE) water pipe designed for potable water supply and agricultural water applications. Its heavy gauge construction provides excellent strength and durability, while the flexible and heat-insulating properties make it practical for underground and outdoor water installations.
This 1/2″ Hydrodare pipe has a 12mm nominal internal diameter and approximately 20mm outside diameter, meaning it is commonly connected using 3/4″ compression fittings. Heavy Gauge Hydrodare is a popular choice for farm water supplies, outdoor taps, agricultural installations, gardens and general water distribution.
The pipe is available from White’s Agri in 25m, 50m and 150m rolls. The 150m roll is available for collection only due to its size and weight.

This pipe has a 12mm internal diameter and 20mm outside diameter. Please ensure fittings are specifically suitable for 1/2″ Heavy Gauge Hydrodare.

Installation & Use
Hydrodare can be used for a wide range of water supply applications around farms, gardens and rural properties. Its flexibility makes it easier to route around an installation compared with rigid pipe, while its heat-insulating properties can help minimise the risk of frost damage.
For underground installations, lay the pipe in a suitable trench and avoid sharp bends, excessive tension or contact with sharp objects that could damage the pipe. Ensure all connections are properly secured and tested for leaks before putting the system into full service.
For the best results, use compatible compression fittings and follow the fitting manufacturer’s installation instructions.
Available from White’s Agri: 25m and 50m rolls for delivery, with the larger 150m roll available for collection only.
