FAQs

What type of pipe does the 15mm Tectite Sprint Stop End work with?

It is designed to work with standard 15mm copper, PEX, and multi-layer composite pipe systems.

Do I need any special tools to install this fitting?

No, the Tectite Sprint fittings are push-fit and do not require any tools for installation. However, a release tool is recommended for removal.

What is the main benefit of the Sprint design?

The Sprint design utilizes only three components for a slimmer, more attractive profile and simpler construction, while maintaining high performance.

Can this fitting be used to join two pipes together?

No, this is a stop end fitting designed specifically to terminate a pipe run, not to join two pipes.

How do I know if the fitting is properly installed?

You will feel the fitting 'click' or firmly engage onto the pipe when it is fully seated. A secure connection is indicated by the pipe being pushed all the way in.

Is this fitting suitable for high-pressure systems?

Yes, Tectite fittings are engineered to provide exceptional performance and are suitable for typical domestic and commercial water pressure systems.

Troubleshooting

Fitting will not push onto the pipe.

Ensure the pipe end is clean, de-burred, and of the correct diameter (15mm). Check for any internal obstructions in the fitting.

Leak detected after installation.

Remove the fitting, inspect the pipe end for damage or debris, and re-install. Ensure the pipe is pushed in fully.

Difficulty removing the fitting.

Use a Tectite release tool or appropriate pipe grip to twist and pull the fitting off the pipe. Ensure the release mechanism is engaged correctly.
