Product Information

Full details

The John Guest Speedfit Push Fit Equal Elbow 22mm is designed for plumbers and DIY enthusiasts seeking a quick, secure, and tool-free method for connecting 22mm plastic and copper pipes. Its primary benefit is the rapid, leak-proof installation thanks to advanced push-fit and multi-seal technology. A potential consideration is the pressure limitations at higher temperatures, requiring careful system design for hot water applications. This pack of two white fittings offers a reliable solution for various plumbing needs, including domestic hot and cold water services, central heating, and combi systems, backed by a 50-year guarantee.

FAQs

What types of pipes can I use with this fitting?

This fitting is designed for 22mm soft copper pipes (BS EN 1057) and compatible 22mm plastic pipes such as PEX and multilayer pipes.

Do I need any special tools to install this elbow?

No, the John Guest Speedfit fittings are designed for tool-free installation. You only need to ensure the pipe is properly prepared (cut, deburred, clean).

What is the maximum pressure this fitting can handle?

It can handle up to 12 BAR at low temperatures (e.g., 20°C) and up to 3 BAR at high temperatures (e.g., 105°C).

How long is the guarantee for this product?

The John Guest Speedfit Push Fit Equal Elbow 22mm comes with an extensive 50-year guarantee.

Can I use these fittings in an exposed location?

Yes, the fittings are durable and suitable for various environments. However, prolonged direct sunlight exposure is generally not recommended for plastic components.

How do I remove a pipe from the fitting?

To remove a pipe, you need to use the John Guest de-molding tool. Push the collet (the part with the teeth) firmly into the fitting while pulling the pipe out.

What is the operating temperature range?

The fittings can operate in a temperature range from -20 °C to 105 °C.

Troubleshooting

Fitting not sealing or leaking

Ensure the pipe is pushed in fully to the correct depth. Check that the pipe end is clean, round, and free from burrs or damage. Verify the pipe is the correct size and type for the fitting.

Difficulty inserting pipe

Ensure the pipe end is clean and square. Slightly twisting the pipe while inserting may help. If the pipe is deformed, it may need to be cut and re-prepared.

Fitting leaks under pressure

Confirm the maximum operating pressure for the temperature. For hot water systems, ensure the pressure is below 3 BAR. For cold water, ensure it's below 12 BAR. Re-check pipe insertion and ensure no debris is in the fitting.

Pipe won't demount

Ensure the de-molding tool is used correctly. Push the collet firmly inwards while simultaneously pulling the pipe. Ensure no debris is obstructing the de-molding mechanism.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely fast and simple installation without tools.
  • Provides a reliable, leak-proof connection.
  • Easy to demount and reposition, aiding in complex installations.
  • Suitable for a broad range of domestic plumbing applications.

Cons

  • Maximum operating pressure is significantly reduced at higher temperatures (3 BAR at 105°C).

  • White color may not suit all aesthetic preferences in exposed plumbing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the pipe end is clean, dry, and free from burrs or damage. For copper pipes, ensure the end is fully deburred. For plastic pipes, ensure a clean, square cut.
  2. Mark the insertion depth on the pipe using a depth gauge or marking tool. This ensures the pipe is inserted fully.
  3. Push the pipe firmly and squarely into the fitting until it reaches the insertion depth mark.
  4. The fitting will grip the pipe automatically, creating a secure seal. To confirm, give the pipe a gentle tug.

Compatibility:

  • Compatible with 22mm soft copper pipe conforming to BS EN 1057.
  • Compatible with 22mm PEX pipes (e.g., polyethylene) and multilayer pipes meeting relevant standards.
  • Suitable for hot and cold water services, underfloor heating, and central heating systems.

Care:

  • These fittings are maintenance-free under normal operating conditions.
  • Avoid exposing the fittings to direct sunlight for extended periods if not essential for system function.
  • If cleaning is required, use a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
