FAQs

What type of pipes are these connectors compatible with?

These connectors are specifically designed for use with 13/16mm LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene) water supply pipes.

How many connectors are included in the pack?

The pack contains a total of 15 mixed connectors, including bungs, tee, elbow, and straight joiners.

Are these connectors suitable for high-pressure systems?

These connectors are designed for standard garden irrigation systems and may not be suitable for high-pressure applications. Always check the system's pressure rating.

Can I use these connectors with pipes of a different size?

No, these connectors are precisely sized for 13/16mm LDPE pipes. Using them with other sizes will likely result in poor fit, leaks, or disconnection.

How do I ensure a secure, leak-free connection?

Push the pipe firmly onto the barbed end of the connector until it is fully seated. Ensure both the pipe and connector are clean and undamaged.

What maintenance do these connectors require?

Regularly inspect connections for leaks or wear. Clean pipes and connectors before installation. Store unused parts in a protected area to maximize lifespan.

Are there other color options available?

This specific product variant is black. A multicolor variant is also available (MPN: 10).

Troubleshooting

Connector does not fit onto the pipe.

Verify that you are using a 13/16mm LDPE pipe and that the pipe end is clean and free of obstructions. Ensure the pipe is slightly warmed if it is stiff, which can aid insertion.

Leak detected at the connection point.

Ensure the pipe is pushed fully onto the barbed end of the connector. Check the pipe for damage or the connector for any manufacturing defects. If the pipe is old or has softened, it may not create a secure seal.

Connector breaks during installation.

Avoid excessive force. If the pipe is difficult to insert, try warming the end of the pipe slightly with warm water. Ensure you are pushing straight onto the connector, not at an angle.

Water flow is restricted.

Ensure that the internal passage of the connector is not blocked by debris. Check that the chosen connector type (e.g., elbow) is not excessively restricting flow for the application's needs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

  3. Firmly push the end of the LDPE pipe onto the barbed end of the connector until it is fully seated.
