Product Overview

The Poultry Drinker Drip Cup is a waterline accessory installed beneath poultry nipple drinkers to collect minor drips and splash water during drinking. It helps prevent unnecessary moisture from reaching litter, manure belts or flooring while keeping the drinking area cleaner.

Designed for commercial broiler, breeder, pullet and layer drinking systems, the cup can be supplied in single-arm, double-arm and snap-on configurations for different square drinking pipes and nipple arrangements. Hog Slat lists LUBING single-arm drip cups for 22 mm and 28 mm square pipes, together with small and large two-arm versions. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

Key Features
  • Drip Collection: positioned beneath the nipple to catch minor water droplets released during bird drinking.
  • Drier Litter Support: helps reduce unnecessary moisture underneath poultry drinking lines.
  • Simple Clip-On Installation: compatible designs attach directly to square poultry water pipes without complex mounting hardware.
  • Single-Arm and Two-Arm Options: different support structures are available for various poultry and waterline applications.
  • Compact Drinking Area: allows birds to reach the nipple while keeping the collection cup close to the water outlet.
  • Corrosion-Resistant Plastic: suitable for humid poultry-house and livestock-building environments.
  • Easy Cleaning: open cup geometry allows quick inspection and removal of feed, dust and mineral deposits.
  • Replaceable Waterline Part: individual cups can be replaced without changing the complete drinking line.
Structural Components
  • Drip collection cup
  • Single-arm or double-arm support
  • Pipe mounting clip
  • Nipple clearance opening
  • Snap-lock or retaining structure
  • Optional extension or adapter according to drinking-line design
Working Principle

The drip cup is mounted directly below the nipple drinker. When poultry activate the nipple, most water is consumed directly by the bird while small droplets or splash water fall into the cup instead of onto the litter or flooring.

The cup is not intended to function as a water storage reservoir. Its primary purpose is to capture incidental water loss around the nipple and support cleaner, drier drinking-line management.

Installation & Maintenance

Select a drip cup that matches the drinking-pipe profile and nipple position. Snap or clip the mounting section securely onto the square water pipe and confirm that the cup is centered beneath the nipple.

The nipple pin must remain freely accessible after installation. The cup should not place side pressure on the nipple body or interfere with normal nipple movement.

During flock operation, drinking-line height and pressure should be adjusted according to bird age and management requirements. Correct line management reduces unnecessary dripping and improves the effectiveness of the drip cups.

Inspect cups regularly for feed, feathers, litter, mineral deposits or organic contamination. Remove and wash dirty cups as required, and replace cracked or damaged mounting arms before the next production cycle.
