The Prima Plus Solder Ring Reduced Coupling is an essential component for professional plumbers and DIY enthusiasts who require a reliable way to connect copper pipes of different diameters. Designed to save significant installation time by featuring an integrated solder ring, this fitting eliminates the need for manual flux and solder application. While it offers superior efficiency and WRAS-approved safety for drinking water systems, users must ensure they have a blowtorch or appropriate heat source to properly melt the internal solder during installation.

The kite mark serves as an independent assurance that the product meets high-level British manufacturing and safety standards.
No, these are intended for a single, permanent installation and cannot be reused once soldered.
Ensure the heat is applied evenly to the body of the fitting and verify your torch is reaching a sufficient temperature.
The pipe may have been dirty or oxidized; clean the pipe more thoroughly and ensure enough flux was applied before reheating.
You may have overheated the fitting; maintain a consistent distance with the torch and remove heat as soon as the solder ring appears.
To install, ensure your 10mm and 8mm copper pipes are cut cleanly and deburred. Use wire wool or an abrasive strip to polish the ends of the pipes to a bright finish. Apply a light coating of plumbing flux to the pipe ends, insert them into the coupling, and apply heat using a blowtorch until you see a silver ring of solder appear at the fitting mouth. Once cooled, wipe away excess flux to prevent future corrosion. These fittings are strictly for use with copper piping. Always inspect the joint for leaks after the system has been pressurized.
