The PrimaPress Pressfit MI (Male Iron) Coupler is an essential component for professional plumbers and contractors seeking a reliable, leak-proof connection for water, gas, and glycol systems. This fitting offers the significant benefit of a fast, flameless installation process that saves time on-site while ensuring long-term durability through its WRAS and DVGW certifications.

Yes, the PrimaPress range is suitable for gas, water, and glycol systems provided local building regulations are followed.
No, this fitting is designed specifically for M-profile press tools. Using a different profile may result in a faulty seal.
The fitting is rated for a maximum working pressure of PN16.
No, the press-fit technology creates a mechanical seal that does not require any heat or soldering.
Do not attempt to repair the fitting. Discard the fitting and use a new one to ensure a reliable seal.
No, PrimaPress fittings are designed for a single-use permanent installation. They cannot be removed and re-pressed.
Verify that the pipe was deburred properly and that no deep scratches exist on the pipe surface that could damage the internal O-ring.
Ensure that the press tool jaws are of the correct M-profile and are not worn or damaged. Check for debris in the jaw tracks.
Check if the pipe end is perfectly round and free of burrs. If the pipe is oval, use a re-rounding tool before attempting insertion.
To ensure a secure installation, verify that your pipe ends are clean, deburred, and free of scratches. Insert the pipe fully into the fitting until it hits the pipe stop. Place the M-profile press jaws around the bead of the fitting, ensuring the tool is perfectly square to the pipe axis. Activate the press tool until the complete cycle is finished.
Compatibility is strictly limited to M-profile jaw sets; using incompatible jaw profiles will compromise the structural integrity of the seal. For care, store fittings in their original packaging to avoid oxidation and deformation of the O-ring seal. If a fitting is stored in an environment below 0 degrees Celsius, ensure the O-ring is pliable before installation.
