Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this adaptor suitable for hot water systems?

No, this specific fitting is engineered primarily for cold water systems.

Do I need to use PTFE tape with this fitting?

Generally, these fittings are designed to seal via internal O-rings; however, ensure the pipe ends are smooth and correctly prepared.

Can this be used underground?

Yes, this adaptor is fully rated for underground use provided it is installed in accordance with standard plumbing practices.

What is the PN16 rating?

The PN16 rating indicates that the fitting is pressure-rated for up to 16 bar of nominal pressure.

Is it safe for drinking water?

Yes, the product is WRAS approved, meaning it meets the requirements for use in potable water supply systems.

Troubleshooting

Visible leaking at the connection point

Ensure the pipe is inserted fully past the internal seal and that the nut is tightened evenly; do not cross-thread the component.

Difficulty inserting the pipe into the adaptor

Check the pipe for external burrs or damage; use a chamfering tool to slightly bevel the edge of the pipe for easier entry.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • No special tools required for installation
  • WRAS approved for potable water safety
  • Rated for high-pressure systems up to 16 bar
  • Suitable for both underground and surface-level use

Cons

  • Requires precise measurement of copper and MDPE pipe diameters
  • Primarily designed for cold water systems
  • Plastic-to-metal transition requires careful tightening to avoid over-torqueing

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure a successful connection, verify that your MDPE pipe is cut cleanly and square, removing any burrs from the cut end. The copper pipe should be clean and free of paint, scale, or deep scratches that could compromise the seal. Simply push the pipes into the adaptor until they hit the internal stop and hand-tighten the nut until firm. Avoid using excessive force or mechanical wrenches that could strip the threads. For long-term maintenance, perform a visual inspection of the connection during annual system checks to ensure the nut remains secure and there are no signs of slow moisture seepage.
