Secure, Precise Watering for Landscapes and Containers
The Cobra Stake Drip Emitter provides a highly reliable, two-in-one solution for targeted irrigation. Combining a built-in turbulent flow emitter with a rugged 5-inch landscape spike, this unit secures itself firmly into the soil to deliver precise hydration directly to the root zone. It is widely used by professionals and home gardeners alike for watering small to medium-sized containers, balled root stock, and dense landscape beds.
Engineered for longevity and low maintenance, the Cobra Stake features a self-flushing design and a built-in filter on the inlet barb to resist clogging. To integrate this emitter into your system, simply connect it to your 1/2″ Mainline Tubing using a length of 1/4″ micro-tubing and a 1/4″ transfer barb. This setup allows you to route water from a central line precisely to where your plants need it most.
- Integrated 5″ Spike: Secures the emitter firmly in the soil, preventing it from shifting, popping out, or being displaced by animals or weather.
- Clog-Resistant Design: The self-flushing turbulent flow path and built-in inlet filter significantly reduce the risk of clogs from debris.
- Targeted Delivery: The one-directional flow path ensures water is delivered exactly at the base of the plant, minimizing evaporation and weed growth.
- Durable Construction: UV-stabilized to withstand prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight without cracking or degrading.

Follow these steps to connect the Cobra Stake to your irrigation mainline.
Step 1: Prep the Mainline
Using a hole punch tool, create a small hole in your 1/2″ or 3/4″ polyethylene mainline tubing near the plant you wish to water.
Step 2: Insert the Transfer Barb
Press a 1/4″ transfer barb firmly into the punched hole until it snaps securely into place.
Step 3: Connect the Micro-Tubing
Push one end of a length of 1/4″ micro-tubing onto the exposed end of the transfer barb. Push the other end onto the inlet barb of the Cobra Stake.
Step 4: Stake the Emitter
Push the 5-inch Cobra Stake directly into the soil at the base of your plant, ensuring the colored water outlet side is facing the root zone.
