FAQs

What types of connectors are these spanners for?

These spanners are specifically designed for use with push-fit connectors only. They are not suitable for standard threaded or compression fittings.

What sizes are included in the set?

The set includes five common sizes: 3/16", 1/4", 5/16", 3/8", and 1/2".

Does the set come with a case?

The set is supplied with a retaining ring to keep the spanners organized, but not a dedicated case.

Can I use these spanners for regular plumbing jobs?

These spanners are specialized tools for push-fit connectors. For general plumbing, you may need a broader set of wrenches and pliers.

How do I clean the spanners?

Wipe them clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth after use and store them in a dry place.

What happens if I use the wrong size spanner?

Using the wrong size spanner may result in a poor grip, potentially damaging the connector or the spanner itself, and making installation or removal difficult.

Are these spanners suitable for very old push-fit connectors?

While they are designed for push-fit systems, compatibility with very old or non-standard push-fit connectors may vary. They are best suited for modern, standard push-fit fittings.

Troubleshooting

Spanner does not grip the push-fit connector securely.

Ensure you are using the correct size spanner for the connector. Verify that the connector itself is clean and free from obstructions. The spanner is designed for specific push-fit types; check compatibility.

Difficulty in removing a push-fit connector.

Apply steady, even pressure using the appropriate spanner. Ensure the release collar on the push-fit connector is being correctly manipulated (if applicable) while using the spanner for support or leverage. Do not force excessively, as this may indicate a different issue with the fitting.

Spanners feel loose or wobbly on the fitting.

Double-check that you have selected the exact size spanner matching the connector's dimension. The spanners are precision-made for push-fit systems and may not fit loosely.

Pros and Cons

  • A retaining ring keeps the set organized.
  • Simplifies the process of installing and removing push-fit fittings.

Cons

  • Not suitable for standard threaded or compression fittings.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This set requires no assembly. The spanners are ready for immediate use upon unboxing. Ensure the retaining ring is securely holding all spanners together for storage or transport.

Compatibility: This set is exclusively designed for use with push-fit connectors. It is not compatible with standard threaded pipe fittings, compression fittings, or other plumbing connections.

Care: To maintain the longevity of the spanner set:

  1. Clean the tools after each use with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove dirt and debris.
  2. Store the set in a dry environment to prevent corrosion.
  3. Avoid using excessive force or applying the spanners to incompatible fittings, as this could damage the tools or the connectors.
