Pegler Yorkshire Tectite Straight Pipe Fitting Adaptor - 22mm x ¾"

No, the Tectite fitting uses push-fit technology, meaning no soldering or special tools are required for the pipe connection. A wrench will be needed for the BSP threaded connection.

This fitting is designed for use with 22mm copper pipe that meets relevant industry standards.

Yes, the metal construction makes it suitable for standard domestic hot water and heating systems within their specified temperature and pressure limits.

Ensure the copper pipe is clean, deburred, and pushed fully into the fitting up to the insertion mark. For the BSP thread, ensure proper sealing using PTFE tape if necessary.

While Tectite fittings can be demounted using a demounting tool, it is generally recommended to use a new fitting for critical connections to guarantee a reliable seal.

The '¾"' refers to the size of the British Standard Pipe (BSP) female thread on one end of the adaptor, suitable for connecting to a ¾" male thread.

Ensure the pipe end is clean, smooth, and fully inserted to the correct depth. Check for any damage to the pipe or fitting. If the issue persists, the fitting may need replacement.

Verify the pipe is not deformed and that the end is properly deburred. Ensure no debris is present inside the fitting. Lubricating the pipe end slightly with water can sometimes help.

Check the thread engagement and ensure the male thread is clean and undamaged. Use appropriate sealing tape (e.g., PTFE tape) on the male thread if required by the connected component's specifications.
