Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure the copper pipe is cut squarely and the outer surface is thoroughly cleaned using abrasive pads to remove oxidation. Apply a suitable flux to both the pipe end and the interior of the fitting. Once inserted, apply heat evenly around the fitting until the solder is ready to be applied at the mouth of the joint. Allow the joint to cool naturally without agitation. Maintain the system by periodically checking for signs of corrosion or leakage, particularly in high-pressure or high-temperature environments. These fittings are compatible with standard 42mm copper piping meeting EN standards.
