The Polypipe Polymax Straight Tap Connector (MAX715) is designed for plumbers and DIY enthusiasts needing a secure and aesthetically pleasing connection for hot and cold water systems, particularly in surface-mounted installations. Its key benefit is the slim, attractive design and easy demountability with a release tool. A potential consideration is the requirement to use specific Polypipe white polybutylene flexible pipe and compatible pipe stiffeners for optimal performance and security.

This connector is designed to be used exclusively with Polypipe white polybutylene flexible pipe.
Yes, a Polypipe metal or plastic pipe stiffener must be used with the pipe for a secure and reliable connection. A sealed stiffener is available for added security.
The Polymax fittings are suitable for domestic hot and cold water systems. For central heating, always consult the specific system requirements and manufacturer guidelines.
You can demount the fitting by using the Polypipe release tool. Press the collet on the fitting with the tool and pull the pipe out.
The sealed stiffener provides extra security and a more robust connection, recommended for certain applications or when enhanced peace of mind is desired.
Yes, the slim and attractive design makes it ideal for surface-mounted or exposed installations where aesthetics are important.
Ensure the pipe is fully inserted into the fitting and that a pipe stiffener was used correctly. Check for any damage to the pipe end or the fitting itself.
Make sure the pipe end is cut square and deburred. Ensure a pipe stiffener is used, as this can sometimes add rigidity. If the pipe is old or stiff, warming it slightly with hot water (not boiling) may help.
Confirm you are using the correct Polypipe release tool. Ensure the collet is fully depressed while pulling the pipe. Sometimes, a slight twist can help.
