Product Information

Full details

The Plumbright 28mm x 1 BSP Female Adaptor is designed for professional plumbers and experienced DIY enthusiasts seeking a reliable, high-performance solution for connecting 28mm pipework to 1-inch threaded components. Its primary benefit is the advanced push-fit technology, which significantly reduces installation time while maintaining a secure, leak-proof joint without the need for heat or solder. While this adaptor is robust and compliant with industry standards, users should ensure the pipe ends are perfectly clean and burr-free to guarantee the integrity of the internal O-ring seal.

FAQs

Can I reuse the Plumbright push-fit adaptor?

While these fittings are designed for a permanent, secure connection, they can be removed and reused if the O-ring and internal teeth remain in perfect condition.

Does this require any jointing compound or PTFE tape?

The push-fit side requires no compound. However, when connecting the 1-inch BSP threaded side, you should use an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to ensure a watertight seal on the threads.

Is this fitting suitable for central heating systems?

Yes, it is built to handle the higher temperatures and pressures associated with modern domestic and light commercial heating systems.

Can I use this with stainless steel pipe?

This fitting is optimized for plastic and copper. It is not recommended for use with stainless steel unless explicitly stated as compatible by the pipe manufacturer.

What is the maximum pressure rating?

The product is designed for high-pressure applications, but you should always refer to the specific technical data sheet provided on the packaging for exact bar ratings.

Troubleshooting

Joint is leaking immediately after installation

Remove the pipe and inspect the O-ring for cuts or debris; ensure the pipe end was properly de-burred and free of scratches.

Pipe will not insert fully into the fitting

Check the pipe for any deformation or out-of-roundness. Ensure the pipe has been cut perfectly square.

Difficulty removing the fitting for maintenance

Use a compatible release tool designed for the specific push-fit range to depress the collet teeth evenly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • No hot works permit or soldering tools required
  • Extremely quick to install compared to traditional methods
  • Certified by WRAS and KITEMARK for peace of mind
  • High-resistance construction ensures longevity under pressure
  • Clean, aesthetic white finish is perfect for visible areas

Cons

  • Requires precise pipe preparation to prevent O-ring damage
  • Not intended for use with non-standard pipe diameters
  • Requires proper pipe support to prevent side-loading

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure a long-lasting connection, follow these steps during installation:

  1. Pipe Preparation: Cut the 28mm pipe cleanly and squarely. Use a de-burring tool to remove all sharp edges, as burrs will tear the internal O-ring and cause leaks.
  2. Cleanliness: Ensure the pipe surface is free from debris, paint, or grease before insertion.
  3. Insertion: Push the pipe firmly into the fitting until you feel it hit the internal stop. It should feel smooth but firm.
  4. Compatibility: This fitting is compatible with standard 28mm plastic pipes and copper pipes of the same external diameter. Always check the manufacturer's pipe tolerance specifications.
  5. Care: Avoid using abrasive chemicals or solvent-based cleaners on the fitting body, as these may compromise the plastic integrity over time. Clean only with a damp cloth.
