Product Information

Full details

The PrimaPress Pressfit Gas MI Coupler is designed for professional plumbers and contractors working on water, gas, or glycol installations who prioritize speed, safety, and reliability. Its primary advantage is the flameless, secure press-fit technology that ensures a long-lasting seal, though users should note it specifically requires compatible M-profile press jaws for correct installation. This high-standard fitting provides a durable, leak-before-press safety feature that simplifies quality control during installation in both residential and commercial environments.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can this be used for underground installations?

Yes, provided the installation complies with local building regulations and the fitting is appropriately protected from corrosive environments.

Does this require a specific brand of press tool?

It is compatible with any tool that uses standard M-profile press jaws.

Can I reuse the fitting if the press failed?

No. Once a press fitting has been deformed by the press tool, it must be replaced to maintain the integrity of the system.

Is this fitting suitable for drinking water?

Yes, it is WRAS approved, making it suitable for potable water applications.

What happens if the system exceeds 110 degrees Celsius?

The fitting is rated up to 110 degrees Celsius; exceeding this may cause the internal sealing elements to degrade or fail.

Troubleshooting

Joint leaking after pressing

Ensure the pipe was deburred properly and inserted fully; check that the M-profile jaw was aligned perfectly with the fitting bead.

Pipe will not insert into fitting

Check the pipe end for deformation or burrs; ensure the pipe is correctly sized for the fitting and not out-of-round.

Tool struggles to compress

Verify that your M-profile jaws are clean, free of debris, and properly lubricated, or check the press tool battery charge.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Fast, cost-effective installation process
  • No hot work or fire hazards
  • Excellent temperature and pressure resilience
  • Verified quality via WRAS and DVGW approvals
  • Long-term 50-year warranty

Cons

  • Requires specialized M-profile press tool/jaws
  • Cannot be installed using traditional soldering techniques
  • Strict requirement for clean pipe preparation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure a lifetime seal, follow these setup and maintenance protocols:

  1. Pipe Preparation: Ensure the copper pipe end is deburred and free of any debris or scratches. An uneven surface can compromise the internal O-ring seal.
  2. Tool Selection: Use only calibrated press tools fitted with M-profile jaws. Using incompatible jaw profiles will prevent a uniform crimp and result in leaks.
  3. Insertion: Fully insert the pipe into the fitting until it hits the internal stop to ensure proper engagement with the internal seal.
  4. Maintenance: While the system is largely maintenance-free once installed, always perform a leak test at the maximum operating pressure before commissioning the line. Avoid using abrasive chemicals on the fitting exterior, as this can degrade the protective finish.
