Frequently Asked Questions

• What exactly is this compression fitting used for? It allows a demountable, tight connection of multilayer plastic-aluminium (PEX-AL-PEX) pipe to a metal threaded connection (e.g. on a manifold or fitting) without the need for pressing tools - just a standard wrench.
• How is the fitting installed? A union nut and a clamping ring are slid onto the end of the pipe, the pipe is then pushed fully into the fitting body, and the nut is tightened - you can find the detailed procedure in the product description.
• Can the joint be disassembled and reassembled? Yes, unlike pressed joints, a compression fitting can be repeatedly disassembled and reassembled, which is especially useful for any modifications or repairs to the piping.
• Do I need special tools? No, a standard (open-end) wrench is enough for tightening - no pressing tools are needed.
