The PEPTE 15mm x 3/4" BSP compression male elbow is designed for professional plumbers and DIY enthusiasts seeking a reliable, solder-free method to transition between 15mm copper or plastic pipework and a 3/4" BSP female connection. Its primary advantage is the ease of installation in tight spaces where heat-based tools are impractical; however, users should note that as a compression fitting, it requires careful tightening to prevent leaks and is generally intended for accessible locations rather than behind finished walls.

No, this is a mechanical compression fitting and does not require soldering.
No, this fitting is intended for water and heating systems. Always use gas-rated components for gas lines.
Yes, but you must ensure you use a pipe insert (stiffener) inside the plastic pipe to prevent it from collapsing when compressed.
It means the product has been tested and certified to comply with water regulations, ensuring it is safe for use with mains water.
While the body is reusable, it is highly recommended to replace the olive if you remove the fitting to ensure a fresh, leak-free seal.
Tighten the compression nut by another quarter turn. Do not overtighten, as this can crush the olive.
Ensure the pipe has been cut perfectly square and is fully inserted into the fitting before tightening.
Unscrew the threaded side, apply fresh PTFE tape to the male threads, and reconnect firmly.
To install, ensure the 15mm pipe is cut clean and free of burrs. Slide the nut and olive onto the pipe, insert the pipe fully into the fitting body, and tighten the nut by hand before finishing with a wrench—usually an additional half-turn is sufficient. For the 3/4" BSP thread side, use PTFE tape or a dedicated liquid thread sealant to ensure a leak-proof connection to your female fitting. While compression joints are robust, it is good practice to check for leaks after the system is pressurized and to avoid using harsh chemicals on the brass finish during routine system maintenance.
