Product Information
Full details
The John Guest Speedfit 22mm Equal Elbow is designed for professional plumbers and DIY enthusiasts alike who require a reliable, leak-proof connection in plumbing or heating systems. Its primary benefit is the innovative push-fit technology, which enables rapid installation on plastic or copper pipe without the need for specialized tools; however, users must ensure the pipe is cut square and deburred correctly to maintain the integrity of the O-ring seal.

Troubleshooting
Joint is leaking immediately after installation
Check that the pipe is cut square and that there are no deep scratches on the pipe surface; ensure the pipe is pushed fully into the fitting.
Difficulty inserting the pipe
Verify that the pipe end is not deformed and is free from burrs; apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant if necessary.
Fitting will not demount
Ensure the collet is pressed evenly against the body while pulling the pipe; ensure the system is depressurized before attempting to remove.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward: ensure the pipe end is free of scratches or burrs and cut it squarely. Insert the pipe into the fitting until you feel it pass the internal O-ring. To demount, push the collet firmly against the fitting body and pull the pipe out simultaneously. For long-term care, ensure that pipe runs are supported with clips to prevent unnecessary side-load strain on the elbow. This fitting is specifically designed for 22mm pipe; ensure all components are dry and free of debris prior to installation.
