Can I re-use a JG Speedfit fitting?

Yes, JG Speedfit fittings are designed to be demountable, allowing for reuse. However, always inspect the fitting and pipe for damage before reassembly.

Troubleshooting

The fitting leaks after installation.

Ensure the pipe is fully inserted into the fitting and that the insert is correctly installed. Check for any damage to the pipe or fitting. If necessary, demount the fitting and reinstall, ensuring all components are properly aligned.

The pipe is difficult to insert into the fitting.

Make sure the pipe end is clean, smooth, and cut squarely. Use a pipe cutter to ensure a clean cut. If necessary, chamfer the pipe end slightly to aid insertion. Check the fitting for any obstructions.

The fitting is difficult to demount.

Use the appropriate demounting aid or push the collet in towards the fitting while pulling the pipe out. Ensure the collet is pushed in evenly around the fitting.
