FAQs

Does this fitting contain lead?

No, all Yorkshire solder ring fittings use lead-free solder, making them safe for use in drinking water systems.

Can I use this with plastic pipe?

No, this fitting is specifically designed for copper pipe meeting BS EN 1057 standards.

Do I need to buy extra solder?

No, the fitting comes with a pre-placed solder ring inside, so no additional solder is required for a standard joint.

Is this WRAS approved?

Yes, the product is WRAS approved, ensuring it meets UK water industry regulations.

What is the warranty period?

The product comes with a 25-year guarantee against manufacturing defects.

Do I need flux for this fitting?

Yes, while the solder is included, you should always apply a compatible plumbing flux to ensure the solder flows properly during the heating process.

Troubleshooting

Joint leaks after cooling

Usually caused by insufficient heat or improper cleaning. Clean the pipe thoroughly and ensure the pipe reaches the temperature where the solder flows visibly.

Solder does not flow

Check that the pipe is inserted fully into the fitting and ensure the heat is applied evenly around the hub.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Eliminates the need for external solder application
  • Ensures consistent, leak-proof joints
  • Compatible with standard BS EN 1057 copper tubes
  • WRAS approved for drinking water safety
  • Strong 25-year manufacturing guarantee

Cons

  • Requires a blowtorch and heat-resistant mat
  • Not suitable for use with plastic or PEX piping
  • Requires careful pipe preparation to avoid leaks

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure a successful installation, follow these steps:

  1. Preparation: Cut the copper pipe squarely and remove all burrs using a file or deburring tool. Ensure the pipe surface is clean and free of oxidation or debris using an abrasive pad.
  2. Flux Application: Apply a thin, even coat of soldering flux to the end of the pipe before inserting it into the fitting.
  3. Heating: Apply heat evenly around the fitting with a blowtorch. Do not overheat the joint, as this may burn the flux and prevent proper capillary action.
  4. Cooling: Allow the joint to cool naturally without moving it. Once cooled, wipe away any flux residue with a damp cloth to prevent future corrosion.

This fitting is designed exclusively for copper pipes meeting BS EN 1057. It should be stored in a dry environment to prevent premature oxidation of the solder ring.
