Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure a lifetime connection, follow these setup requirements:

  1. Pipe Preparation: Cut the copper pipe square using a rotary pipe cutter and ensure the end is free of burrs or surface scratches.
  2. Calibration: Ensure the pipe is inserted fully into the fitting until it hits the internal stop.
  3. Jaw Alignment: Use a compatible M-profile press jaw. Ensure the jaw is clean and perpendicular to the fitting before activating the tool.
  4. Compatibility: This fitting is designed specifically for M-profile tooling. Do not attempt to use V-profile or other jaw types, as this will compromise the integrity of the seal.
  5. Care: Store in a dry environment before use to prevent debris from entering the internal O-ring seal. Once installed, the system should be tested in accordance with local gas or plumbing regulations.
