Description
Manufactured for use within press fit pipework systems, this stainless steel tube provides a high quality and dependable solution for fluid transfer across a wide range of applications. Produced from EN 10312 TP316L stainless steel, it delivers excellent corrosion resistance along with the strength required for demanding environments. The bright annealed finish ensures a clean and smooth surface both internally and externally, supporting improved flow characteristics and maintaining hygiene standards.
Designed to integrate seamlessly with M-profile press fit fittings, the pipe enables fast, secure connections without the need for welding or threading. This not only reduces installation time but also improves safety on site by eliminating hot works. Manufactured in accordance with WRAS and DVGW approvals, it meets stringent standards for quality, safety, and performance. When used as part of a complete press fit system, it delivers a reliable and long lasting pipework solution.
Key Features & Benefits
- 316L stainless steel construction: Provides excellent corrosion resistance and long service life.
- Bright annealed finish: Ensures a clean, smooth surface for improved hygiene and flow.
- Flattened internal weld bead: Reduces turbulence and supports efficient fluid movement.
- Optimised for press fit systems: Designed for seamless compatibility with M-profile fittings.
- Consistent manufacturing standard: Produced to EN 10312 for reliable quality and performance.
- WRAS and DVGW compliant: Suitable for potable water and regulated applications.
- Flame-free installation: No welding required when used with press fit systems.
- 6 metre lengths: Ideal for efficient installation with fewer joints.
Pipe Preparation and Installation
1. Cutting and preparing the pipe:
- Cut the pipe cleanly and square using a compatible pipe cutter.
- Deburr the pipe end internally and externally using a deburring tool or reaming pen to remove sharp edges and swarf.
- Ensure the pipe end is free from dirt, grease, and debris before assembly.
2. Marking and inserting the pipe:
- Mark the correct insertion depth on the pipe using a suitable marker before assembly.
- Insert the pipe fully into the fitting until it reaches the marked depth, applying steady, even pressure without twisting.
- Confirm the insertion mark is flush with the fitting edge before pressing.
3. Pressing and testing:
- Fit a compatible press tool with the correct M-profile jaw and press the fitting to form a permanent, watertight joint in a single action.
- Once installation is complete, pressure test the system in accordance with site requirements or relevant standards.
- Any unpressed joints will visibly leak during testing, allowing missed connections to be identified and rectified before commissioning.
