Product features

• Simple connector for copper and steel installations

This simple connector from Conex, part of the COMPRESSION series, is a reliable solution for joining pipes in water, heating, air conditioning, and compressed air installations. Made of brass, it ensures durability and corrosion resistance, and the compression design allows for quick and secure installation without soldering. It is suitable for both new installations and repairs or extensions of existing systems.

Construction and application

The connector features a compression ring on one side and a tapered BSPT-R (ISO 7-1 / EN 10226-1) external thread with a diameter of 1/2 inch (15 mm) on the other. This allows it to be easily connected to copper pipes meeting the PN EN 1057 standard and stainless steel pipes according to PN EN 10312 by screwing. The outer diameter of the connection pipe is 18 mm. The unique nut with protrusions ensures a secure crimping of the brass ring, guaranteeing a leak-proof connection.
