No, the Tectite Sprint elbow uses push-fit technology, requiring no soldering. A pipe cutter and a depth gauge or marker are recommended for preparation, and a release tool is needed for disassembly.
This fitting is compatible with copper, PEX, and multi-layer composite pipes that meet the relevant industry standards for 15mm plumbing.
Yes, the Tectite Sprint elbow is suitable for domestic hot and cold water, central heating, and vented or unvented systems.
Pegler fittings are designed for long-term durability. With correct installation and use within specified system parameters, they are expected to last the lifetime of the plumbing system.
To remove the fitting, you will need a Tectite release tool. Insert the tool into the fitting to release the grab ring, then pull the pipe out.
The 'Sprint' design focuses on simplicity and aesthetics, using only three components for a slimmer and more attractive profile, while maintaining high performance.
Ensure the pipe was fully inserted to the correct depth and the pipe end was clean and free of burrs. Check that the correct type of pipe compatible with Tectite fittings was used.
Verify the pipe is clean and not deformed. If resistance is high, check if the pipe end has been properly chamfered. Do not force the connection if significant resistance is met; re-check pipe and fitting condition.
Confirm the pipe has reached the designated insertion depth mark. Ensure the O-ring inside the fitting is intact and not damaged.
Setup: Ensure the pipe end is clean, free from burrs, and has a smooth, consistent edge. Mark the correct insertion depth on the pipe using a depth gauge or marker. Push the pipe firmly into the fitting until it reaches the depth mark. The internal O-ring and grab ring will create a secure, watertight seal. For removal, use a Tectite release tool to disengage the grab ring and pull the pipe out.
Compatibility: This fitting is designed for use with Tectite-compatible pipes, including copper, PEX, and multi-layer composite pipes that meet relevant standards. Ensure your pipework is correctly sized for a 15mm connection.
Care: While the fitting itself requires no regular maintenance, regular inspection of the overall plumbing system for leaks is recommended. Keep the connection area clean and dry.
