We have what I think is HDPE supply pipe supplying our water outside; it is black and kind-of flexible but quite rigid... The fittings are gray barb fittings that are inserted in the pipe and have one or two hose clamps on it. The connections tend to leak a little and there are (and have been) lots of little leaks. The hose clamps need to be very tight to keep them sealed. It is frustrating how there is so little information about these and that they often leak...
I would like to know anything you know about this type of supply pipe...
Are barb fittings and hose clamps the correct way to connect this type of pipe? Where can I find the right fittings? It's hard to find them in stores because "3/4 barb" applies to many different fittings.
