Home Range Westco Tank Connector - 28mm

DZR stands for Dezincification Resistant. This type of brass alloy is specifically formulated to prevent the leaching of zinc when exposed to water, which enhances its durability and corrosion resistance, especially in hard water areas.

The connector is suitable for general plumbing systems which may include moderate temperature fluctuations. For continuous high-temperature applications, consult specific system requirements and material compatibility charts.

Standard plumbing tools such as pipe cutters, deburring tools, and adjustable wrenches or basin wrenches are typically required for installation.

The connector is designed to seal through standard tank wall thicknesses. Ensure the threaded portion of the connector is long enough to engage the nut properly after passing through the tank material.

Yes, DZR brass is generally considered safe for potable water applications, offering a durable and non-corrosive solution.

While it can physically pass through a plastic tank wall, ensure the plastic material is rigid enough to support the compression fitting without deforming. The sealing integrity depends on the rigidity of the tank wall.

Please refer to the manufacturer's documentation or retailer for specific warranty information, as this can vary.

Ensure the tank surface is clean and flat where the connector seals. Check that the compression nut is tightened sufficiently and evenly. Verify the thickness and material of the tank wall are appropriate for creating a secure seal.

Ensure the pipe is correctly inserted into the fitting and that the nut is threaded correctly. Do not overtighten, which can damage the pipe or fitting. Ensure the pipe is cut square and free of burrs.

While DZR brass offers excellent resistance, prolonged exposure to aggressive water conditions can still cause some degradation. Ensure the water quality is within typical potable water parameters. If severe corrosion occurs, the connector may need replacement.
