Product Information

Full details

The PrimaPress 15mm Pressfit Slip Coupler is designed for professional plumbers and contractors seeking a reliable, flameless solution for water, gas, and glycol plumbing installations. Its primary benefit is the integrated leak-before-press detection system, which ensures joint integrity before the system is pressurized; however, users must ensure they have access to compatible M-profile press jaws to achieve a correct, permanent seal.

Troubleshooting

The press tool struggles to close around the fitting

Ensure you are using M-profile jaws. Check that the jaw hinge is free of dirt and that the fitting is centered.

Leak detected during pressure test

Verify the pipe was fully inserted to the required depth and check that the pipe ends were deburred prior to insertion.

Fitting appears deformed after pressing

Ensure the press tool is calibrated and that you are not using incompatible jaw profiles.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure a lifetime seal, follow these steps:

  1. Preparation: Ensure the copper pipe is cut square and deburred thoroughly, both inside and out, to prevent damage to the internal O-ring seal.
  2. Marking: Measure the insertion depth of the pipe and mark it on the pipe exterior; this ensures the pipe has bottomed out in the coupler.
  3. Pressing: Use a certified M-profile press jaw. Ensure the jaws are clean and free of debris before clamping around the fitting.
  4. Verification: Always inspect the joint after the press cycle for a clean, uniform profile.

Storage: Store in a dry, dust-free environment to keep the internal sealing elements pristine until the moment of installation.
