The Plumbright Copper Press-Fit Fitting Reducer is designed for professional plumbers and experienced DIYers seeking a reliable, heat-free transition between 28mm and 15mm copper piping in domestic, commercial, or industrial plumbing systems. This fitting excels by providing a permanent, leak-proof connection without the need for open flames or soldering, though it does require the use of a specialized M-Profile press tool to ensure an airtight seal.

The fitting is designed to handle standard residential and commercial water pressure, but please refer to the technical data sheet for specific PSI limits.
Both are acceptable as long as they provide the correct force and use compatible M-Profile jaws.
No. Copper press fittings rely on the internal O-ring to create a seal. Do not use lubricants or sealants as they may damage the O-ring material.
Check if the pipe was deburred properly. Scratches on the copper surface can damage the O-ring. If the pipe end is clean, ensure the press tool was fully engaged.
Check for burrs on the end of the pipe or check if the pipe is slightly out of round. Re-cut the pipe end and re-debure if necessary.
Verify that you are using M-Profile jaws. V-Profile or other jaw patterns will not seat correctly on this fitting.
