Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is MDPE?

MDPE stands for Medium-Density Polyethylene, a type of plastic commonly used for pipes due to its flexibility, durability, and resistance to chemicals and corrosion.

What does PN10 mean?

PN10 indicates that the fittings are rated to withstand a maximum operating pressure of 10 bars (approximately 145 psi).

Do I need special tools to install this kit?

No, the kit is designed for easy installation. You will need basic tools to tighten the compression fittings and potentially a wrench for the threaded connection. A method for attaching the wall flange to the surface will also be required.

What is a BSP thread?

BSP stands for British Standard Pipe. It is a widely used standardized thread type for pipes and fittings, ensuring compatibility between components.

Can this kit be used for drinking water?

While MDPE and brass are often used for water supply, suitability for potable water depends on specific material certifications and local regulations. This guide does not confirm potable water compliance.

What is the function of the brass joiner?

The brass joiner connects a flexible hose (on the barbed end) to a threaded fitting (on the BSP threaded end), acting as an adapter between different pipe types or connection methods.

Where can I buy PTFE tape?

PTFE tape, also known as plumber's tape or thread seal tape, can be purchased at most hardware stores, plumbing supply shops, and online retailers.

Troubleshooting

Leak at the threaded connection between flange and joiner

Ensure PTFE tape was applied correctly to the threads before tightening. Reapply tape and tighten securely. Check that both fittings are the correct BSP thread size.

Hose slips off the barbed joiner

Ensure the hose is the correct size (25mm internal diameter) and is pushed fully onto the barb. For high-pressure applications, consider using a hose clamp (not included) for extra security.

MDPE pipe does not seal with the wall flange

Ensure the MDPE pipe is correctly inserted into the compression fitting and the compression nut is tightened evenly and sufficiently. Check the pipe end for damage or debris.

Slow water flow through the connection

Verify that the hose is not kinked and that the internal diameter of the hose matches the 25mm specification. Ensure no debris is obstructing the flow within the fittings.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable construction with high-quality MDPE and brass.
  • Reliable, leak-free connections for secure systems.
  • Easy to install without specialized equipment.
  • Resistant to corrosion and harsh environmental conditions.
  • Versatile for water supply, irrigation, and industrial use.

Cons

  • PTFE tape is not included and must be purchased separately.
  • Specific to 25mm pipe and hose sizes.
  • Requires a flat surface for wall flange mounting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the surface where the wall flange will be mounted is flat and clean.
  2. Attach the 25mm MDPE pipe to the compression end of the MDPE Wall Flange according to standard MDPE fitting procedures.
  3. Secure the MDPE Wall Flange to the flat surface using appropriate screws (not included).
  4. Apply PTFE tape (purchased separately) to the BSP thread of the MDPE Wall Flange.
  5. Screw the barbed end of the 25mm Brass Straight Joiner into the threaded connection of the MDPE Wall Flange.
  6. Push the 25mm hose pipe firmly onto the barbed end of the Brass Straight Joiner until it is securely seated.

Compatibility:

  • This kit is designed for 25mm MDPE pipes.
  • The brass joiner is compatible with 25mm hose pipes that have an internal diameter suitable for a barbed fitting.
  • The BSP thread on the wall flange is standard and compatible with standard BSP fittings.

Care:

  • Periodically check connections for any signs of leakage or wear.
  • Clean the exterior of the fittings with a damp cloth if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Ensure the system pressure does not exceed the PN10 rating (10 bar / 145 psi).
