Full details

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this adaptor suitable for gas installations?

Yes, it is designed for reliable performance in both water and gas installations.

Is it safe to use with drinking water?

Yes, the product is fully WRAS approved, making it safe for use in drinking water systems.

What standards does this product meet?

It is manufactured to the EN 1254 standard and is Kite marked for compliance with British quality standards.

Can I use this on plastic piping?

Compression adaptors are designed primarily for copper piping; check the manufacturer's specifications for your specific plastic pipe type regarding the use of pipe inserts.

Does it come with a compression olive?

Yes, the adaptor is designed to be used with the supplied internal compression components for a secure fit.

Troubleshooting

Minor leak at the compression joint

Ensure the nut is tightened firmly. If it continues to leak, inspect the olive for damage or ensure the pipe is inserted fully into the fitting.

Nut feels difficult to turn

Check that the threads are clean and aligned correctly. Ensure you are not cross-threading the nut during the initial engagement.

Pipe slipping out

Verify the pipe diameter is exactly 22mm and that the olive has been properly compressed against the pipe surface.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • WRAS approved for drinking water safety
  • High-quality, durable brass body
  • Easy to install without specialized soldering tools
  • Reliable performance in both gas and water lines
  • Meets rigorous EN 1254 standards

Cons

  • Requires proper tightening to ensure a seal
  • Not suitable for use with non-standard pipe diameters
  • Chrome finish can scratch if using improper gripping tools

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, ensure the 22mm pipe is cut squarely and free of burrs. Slide the nut and the compression olive onto the pipe before pushing the pipe fully into the adaptor body. Hand-tighten the nut until firm, then use a wrench to apply an additional half to three-quarters of a turn to complete the seal. Do not overtighten, as this can deform the olive and cause leaks. For gas installations, always ensure compliance with local safety regulations and perform a pressure test. Clean with a damp cloth; avoid abrasive chemicals or steel wool to protect the chrome finish.
