Is this fitting suitable for drinking water?

What is the pressure rating of this end plug?

The end plug has a PN16 pressure rating, suitable for high-pressure water distribution systems.

How long is the expected service life?

The fitting is engineered for a service life exceeding 50 years under normal operating conditions.

Can I use this fitting with other types of plastic pipe?

What is the main benefit of the 'captive O-ring' design?

The captive 'O' ring ensures a consistent and reliable seal throughout the fitting's service life, preventing leaks even after prolonged use.

Troubleshooting

Fitting leaks after installation

Ensure the pipe was fully inserted to the internal stop. Re-seat the pipe and hand-tighten the fitting firmly. Check the pipe end for damage or deformation.

Pipe is difficult to insert

Ensure the pipe end is clean, free of burrs, and slightly chamfered. Verify you are using the correct 32mm MDPE pipe.

Fitting does not feel secure

Confirm the pipe has reached the internal stop and that the fitting has been hand-tightened sufficiently. The 'bite' into the pipe should be palpable.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely easy and fast tool-free installation.
  • Durable construction with excellent resistance to impact and environmental factors.
  • Reliable and long-lasting sealing performance.
  • Extended service life exceeding 50 years.
  • Approved for potable water applications.
  • Suitable for high-pressure systems (PN16).

Cons

  • Only compatible with 32mm MDPE pipe.
  • Requires careful pipe insertion to the stop for proper sealing.
  • Hand-tightening torque might require some user judgment for optimal seal.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the end of the 32mm MDPE pipe is clean, dry, and free from burrs or damage.
  2. Push the MDPE pipe firmly into the end plug fitting until it reaches the internal stop.
  3. Hand-tighten the fitting to secure the pipe. The fitting is designed to create a secure seal with hand pressure alone.

  • If the fitting needs to be removed, follow the specific de-coupling instructions for this type of Plasson fitting. Ensure the pipe is depressurized before attempting removal.
