FAQs

Is this fitting suitable for central heating systems?

Does this adaptor come with a sealing washer?

No, the male iron thread is designed to be sealed using plumber's tape or a suitable thread sealant compound.

Can this be used with plastic pipes?

No, this is an endfeed copper fitting specifically designed for use with copper tubing.

What standards do these fittings meet?

They are manufactured to EN 1254 standards and carry the British Kite mark.

Is this fitting safe for potable water?

Yes, the product is WRAS approved, meaning it is certified for use in systems supplying drinking water.

Troubleshooting

Joint leaking after soldering

Clean and re-flux the joint, then reheat and re-apply a small amount of solder to ensure the capillary gap is fully filled.

Solder not flowing into the joint

Verify that the pipe and fitting are clean and free of oils; ensure enough heat is applied to the fitting socket to melt the solder upon contact.

Threaded connection leaking

Unscrew the threaded side, re-apply a fresh layer of PTFE tape in the direction of the thread, and tighten to the appropriate torque.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality copper construction for longevity
  • WRAS approved for safe drinking water use
  • Reliable, permanent soldered connection
  • Compliant with EN 1254 and British Kite mark standards
  • Suitable for both water and gas systems

Cons

  • Requires professional soldering equipment and skill
  • Permanent installation makes future removal difficult
  • Not suitable for use with non-solderable pipe materials

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install the adaptor, ensure the copper pipe end is clean, deburred, and free of oxidation using emery cloth. Apply an appropriate plumbing flux to the exterior of the pipe and the interior of the fitting socket. Assemble the joint and apply heat evenly using a blowtorch until the solder flows into the joint via capillary action. Allow the connection to cool naturally; do not quench it in water. For the male iron thread, use PTFE tape or a compatible liquid pipe sealant to ensure a watertight seal when connecting to the 3/8" female component. Always pressure test the system before finalizing the installation or closing up walls.
