Product Information

Full details

The Sealey 18m 3-Drop Air Supply System Kit is designed for workshop owners and DIY enthusiasts who need to establish a reliable, efficient compressed air ring main without the complexity of traditional metal piping. The system's primary benefit is its fast-fit installation process, which utilizes push-action technology to eliminate the need for solvents, threading, or specialized tools. While this acetal copolymer and nylon system is exceptionally versatile and easy to configure, users should note that it is designed specifically for 15mm diameter setups and may require additional components if planning for significantly larger industrial-scale infrastructure.

FAQs

Can I use this for systems other than air and water?

No, this system is specifically engineered for compressed air and drinking water. Using it with oils or chemicals may damage the plastic.

Are the fittings reusable?

Yes, the push-fit components are designed to be disassembled and reused in different configurations as your workshop needs evolve.

Does this kit include everything I need to connect to my compressor?

The kit includes brass straight adaptors (3/4 inch BSPT). Depending on your compressor outlet, you may need a reducer or specific tailpiece.

How do I ensure the pipe is inserted deep enough?

Always use the included depth gauge (SBA15DC) to mark the pipe before insertion. The pipe must reach the internal stop within the fitting.

Can this be installed outdoors?

While the material is durable, long-term exposure to direct UV rays may degrade the nylon over time. Indoor use is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Air leakage at a fitting connection

Ensure the pipe is cut perfectly square and inserted to the full depth indicated by the gauge. Inspect the O-ring inside the fitting for debris.

Difficulty removing a fitting

Use the provided disconnect clip to depress the collet ring evenly while pulling the pipe out. Do not pull with force without engaging the collet.

Pipe sagging between supports

Install additional pipe clips to ensure support is spaced at intervals no greater than 1 meter.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • No threading or solvents required for installation
  • Lightweight components allow for easy overhead or wall mounting
  • Highly modular and easy to reconfigure after initial installation
  • Includes all necessary clips and depth gauges for a professional finish

Cons

  • Restricted to 15mm piping diameter
  • Requires careful planning to ensure 18 meters is sufficient for your specific workshop layout
  • Not suitable for high-heat environments where nylon might degrade

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure a leak-free setup, always use the included `SBA15DC` Disconnect Clip & Depth Gauge when inserting the nylon pipe into the fittings. Proper depth insertion is critical for the O-ring seal to function correctly.

  1. Measure and Cut: Use a clean, square cut on the 15mm nylon pipe.
  2. Gauge: Use the depth gauge to mark the insertion point on the pipe.
  3. Insert: Push the pipe firmly into the fitting past the O-ring resistance until you reach the marked depth.
  4. Secure: Use the `SBA15PC` pipe clips every 500mm to 1000mm to prevent sagging.

Avoid exposing the piping to direct contact with sparks or intense heat from welding activities. When cleaning or maintaining, only use soapy water; do not use harsh chemical solvents as they may compromise the integrity of the acetal fittings.
