Manufactured for the Irish market to IS EN 1254-2 standards, it provides a precision fit for Irish copper and PEX pipe systems.

Technical Note

These are Irish Imperial fittings. The compression end is designed specifically for Irish pipe diameters and is not interchangeable with UK or European metric fittings. When installing the male threaded end, the use of a suitable thread sealant or PTFE tape is recommended to ensure a watertight seal. If using with PEX or Qualpex pipe, always use the correct size pipe insert or liner.

Compression fittings are sized and described by the threaded side first, followed by the pipe diameter.
