Product Information
Full details
The Plumbright Push Fit connector (22mm x 3/4 inch) is an essential component for professional plumbers and DIY enthusiasts who need a reliable, tool-free connection solution for plumbing systems. Its primary benefit is the rapid, secure installation process that eliminates the need for soldering or complex adhesives, making it perfect for both new installations and emergency repairs; however, users must ensure the pipe is deburred and fully inserted to prevent potential leaks in high-pressure environments.

FAQs
Can I use this fitting on plastic and copper pipes?
Yes, the Plumbright Push Fit connector is compatible with most standard 22mm plastic (PEX/PB) and copper pipes, provided they are of the correct outer diameter.
Do I need any specialized tools to install this?
No specialized tools are required for installation; however, a pipe cutter and deburring tool are highly recommended to ensure a clean, leak-free connection.
Are these fittings reusable?
Yes, the fitting can be disconnected and reused multiple times if the internal seals and grab ring remain in good condition.
What is the maximum pressure rating?
These fittings are designed to operate within standard domestic plumbing pressure ranges; always consult the product packaging for specific bar ratings.
Can this be used behind walls?
It is generally advised to ensure all connections are accessible for future inspection, though the fitting is robust enough for semi-permanent installations.
Troubleshooting
Fitting leaks after installation
Remove the pipe, check for debris or burrs on the pipe end, and re-insert ensuring it is fully seated.
Pipe will not insert into the connector
Verify the pipe diameter is exactly 22mm and ensure the end is not deformed or oval-shaped.
Cannot remove the fitting for maintenance
Use a specialized push-fit disconnect tool to evenly depress the collet ring while pulling the pipe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure a successful installation, cut your 22mm pipe cleanly using a pipe cutter. Use a file or deburring tool to remove sharp edges that could damage the internal seals. Ensure the pipe is clean and free of grit. When installing, push the pipe firmly into the fitting until you feel it hit the internal stop. For maintenance, check the connection periodically after installation to ensure no moisture is present. If you ever need to disconnect the fitting, use the appropriate release tool to depress the collet ring, which allows for smooth extraction of the pipe without damaging the connector.
