FAQs

What size extension does this provide?

This extension tail provides a 50mm extension.

What is included with the extension tail?

It comes supplied with a chrome-finish nut and olive for installation.

What type of connections does it have?

It features 1/2 inch Male x Female (MxF) connections.

Can I use this with pipes of different sizes?

No, this extension tail is specifically designed for 1/2 inch connections. Using it with other sizes is not recommended.

Is this suitable for high-pressure systems?

Pegler products are generally designed to meet plumbing standards, but always ensure your entire system's components are rated for the intended pressure and temperature.

How do I clean the chrome finish?

Wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Troubleshooting

Leak at connection point

Check that the olive is correctly seated and that the nut is sufficiently tightened. Ensure thread compatibility and that no cross-threading has occurred.

Difficulty screwing the nut

Verify that you are using the correct 1/2 inch thread size and that both male and female threads are clean and undamaged. Do not force the connection; back it off and re-align.

Extension not long enough

This product provides a fixed 50mm extension. If more length is required, consider alternative plumbing solutions or multiple compatible extension pieces if designed for such use.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Easy to install with included nut and olive
  • Chrome finish for durability and appearance
  • Standard 1/2" MxF sizing ensures compatibility with many systems
  • Provides a specific 50mm extension, useful for precise adjustments
  • Reputable brand ensures quality

Cons

  • Only offers a fixed 50mm extension, may not suit all needs
  • Requires understanding of pipe thread types for optimal connection
  • Limited to 1/2" connections, not suitable for other sizes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the pipe threads are clean and free from debris. Hand-tighten the nut and olive onto the male and female threads respectively. Use appropriate wrenches to achieve a secure fit, being careful not to overtighten, which could damage the threads or the olive. The 50mm tail connects to the existing pipework, and the other end provides the new connection point.

Compatibility: This extension tail is designed for 1/2 inch Male x Female (MxF) pipe connections. It is crucial to verify that your existing pipework and the fixture you are connecting to use compatible 1/2 inch thread sizes.

Care: The chrome finish can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface. For internal maintenance, ensure no debris enters the pipework during installation.
