Product Information
Full details
The Plumbright 22mm Stop End is designed for professional plumbers, DIY enthusiasts, and maintenance workers who need a rapid, reliable way to terminate 22mm water or heating lines. Its primary benefit is the push-fit mechanism that eliminates the need for soldering, significantly reducing installation time and effort while maintaining a secure, watertight seal. A notable caveat is that it is strictly for 22mm piping systems, making it unsuitable for other pipe diameters without appropriate adapters or valves.

FAQs
Is this stop end reusable?
While the fitting is designed for a permanent, secure seal, it is generally recommended to use new fittings when reconfiguring pipework to ensure optimal performance.
Can I use this on central heating pipes?
Yes, the Plumbright Stop End is fully rated for heating systems and withstands high temperatures and pressure.
Do I need any specialized tools to install this?
No tools are required for installation beyond a standard pipe cutter to prepare the pipe end.
Is this product certified for drinking water?
Yes, as it is WRAS approved, it is suitable for use in systems carrying potable water.
What is the maximum pressure it can handle?
The fitting is designed to handle standard domestic and light commercial pressure surges safely; refer to local plumbing codes for specific pressure limits in your region.
Troubleshooting
Fitting is leaking after installation
Ensure the pipe end is free of burrs and cut squarely. Re-insert firmly to ensure the internal seal has seated correctly.
Cannot push pipe fully into the fitting
Check the pipe for debris or deformation. Ensure the pipe diameter is exactly 22mm and has not been flattened during cutting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure a proper seal, follow these steps: 1. Ensure the 22mm pipe is cut perfectly square using a pipe cutter to avoid burrs. 2. Remove any sharp edges or debris from the pipe end. 3. Insert the pipe firmly into the push-fit end until it bottoms out. Always ensure the pipe is fully inserted to engage the internal o-ring seal. For care, avoid using abrasive chemical cleaners on the exterior of the fitting. Periodically inspect the joint during routine system checks for any signs of moisture or weeping, though failures are rare when installed correctly.
