This adaptor is designed to connect MDPE and MDPE irrigation pipes.
A pipe liner is required when connecting MDPE piping. It is not necessary for MDPE unless specifically recommended by the pipe manufacturer.
Push the pipe fully into the fitting and tighten the compression nut securely. The captive O-ring creates the seal.
Yes, the fitting is robust and designed for outdoor use, including underground applications, provided it is installed correctly.
It means the fitting connects to a 32mm pipe on one side and has a 1-inch female (internal) thread on the other side.
Tighten the nut firmly by hand, then use a wrench for an additional quarter to half turn. Avoid overtightening, which can damage the fitting or pipe.
While made from robust Polypropylene, its primary resistance is to environmental factors like UV and frost. For specific chemical resistance, consult the manufacturer's detailed specifications.
Ensure the pipe is fully inserted and the compression nut is tightened adequately. Check if a pipe liner was used for MDPE and if it is correctly seated. Inspect the O-ring for damage.
Ensure the pipe end is clean and not deformed. Slightly chamfering the pipe end can help. Verify the pipe diameter matches the fitting size.
Inspect for damage that may have occurred during installation or due to extreme environmental conditions. If damaged, replace the fitting.
