MDPE stands for Medium Density Polyethylene, a type of plastic pipe commonly used for underground cold water services and gas distribution.
While it provides a secure seal, it's best suited for temporary or accessible end-of-line applications. For permanent high-pressure lines, other joining methods or specific rated fittings might be more appropriate.
No specific tools are generally required for installation; it is designed for a push-in and turn mechanism.
To remove the plug, turn the outer collar counter-clockwise until it disengages, then pull the plug out of the pipe.
This fitting is designed for cold water applications. Consult the manufacturer for specific temperature limitations.
This fitting is typically used for water systems. For gas lines, specific gas-rated fittings must be used.
Ensure the pipe end is clean, round, and free of burrs. Slightly moistening the pipe end might help with insertion.
Verify the plug is fully seated and the locking collar is tightened correctly. Check the pipe for damage or imperfections at the point of connection.
Ensure you are using a standard 20mm MDPE pipe. Check that the pipe end is correctly inserted before attempting to turn and lock the collar.
Setup: To install the TIMco MDPE Pipe Fittings End Plug, ensure the end of the 20mm MDPE pipe is cut cleanly and is free of any debris or damage. Push the plug firmly into the pipe end until it is fully seated. Then, turn the outer collar clockwise to lock the fitting securely in place.
Compatibility: This fitting is specifically designed for use with standard 20mm MDPE pipes. It may not be compatible with other pipe materials or sizes.
Care: As this fitting is typically used in water systems, regular checks for leaks are recommended. The material is generally resistant to corrosion and requires minimal maintenance. If the fitting needs to be removed, turn the collar counter-clockwise and then pull the plug out.
