FAQs
What is the maximum working pressure for this elbow?
The HydroSure Compression Elbow is rated for working pressures up to 16 bar.
Can this fitting be used for hot water?
These fittings are generally designed for cold water systems. For hot water applications, consult the manufacturer's specifications for specific product suitability.
What does 'anti-perishable o-ring' mean?
It means the o-ring is made from a material designed to resist degradation over time and exposure to water, ensuring a long-lasting and reliable seal.
How many elbows are included in a pack?
This product is sold as a pack of 3 compression elbows.
What pipe size does this elbow fit?
This elbow is designed for 25mm diameter pipes.
Can I use this for mains water connection?
Yes, provided the pipe and outlet are compatible and the system pressure does not exceed 16 bar. It's suitable for garden irrigation and general water supply installations.
What tools are typically needed for installation?
You will primarily need a pipe cutter (if modifying pipe length), a deburring tool, and two wrenches (one to hold the fitting body, one to tighten the nut).
Troubleshooting
Leak detected at the connection point
Check that the compression nut is tightened sufficiently. Ensure the pipe is fully inserted and the olive is correctly seated. If the leak persists, the pipe or fitting may be damaged, and the connection may need to be redone with new components.
Difficulty tightening the compression nut
Ensure the pipe is round and not deformed. Check for any debris or cross-threading on the fitting and nut. Lubricating the threads lightly can sometimes help.
Fitting does not seal properly
Verify that the correct pipe size (25mm) and thread size (1/2") are being used. Ensure the o-ring is present and correctly seated within the fitting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Ensure the pipe end is clean and free from burrs.
Slide the compression nut and then the olive onto the pipe.
Insert the pipe into the elbow fitting, ensuring it reaches the stop.
Slide the olive and compression nut up to the fitting body.
Tighten the compression nut firmly by hand, then use a wrench for a final quarter to half turn to secure the seal. Avoid overtightening.

Connects to 1/2" threaded fittings (e.g., taps, outlets).

Care:
Inspect periodically for any signs of wear or leakage.
Clean exterior with a damp cloth if necessary; avoid abrasive cleaners.
Ensure connections are snug but not excessively tightened to prolong the life of the o-ring and fitting.
