Compression fitting PP 40x1" female thread PN16, for PE pipes, black color 13014003

PE Pipe Compression Fitting – Reliable Connection in Water Supply Systems

This polypropylene (PP) compression fitting with a diameter of 40 mm and a 1-inch internal thread is designed for connecting polyethylene (PE) pipes. It is an essential component in the construction and expansion of water supply, irrigation, industrial, and swimming pool installations. It provides a tight and durable connection, minimizing the risk of leaks.

The fitting is characterized by high resistance to internal pressure (PN16) up to 25°C, which guarantees safe operation. Made of high-quality materials, it ensures long-term reliability. Its design allows for quick and easy installation without the need for specialized tools or dismantling the fitting in difficult field conditions.

Construction and product features

The fitting has been designed with simplicity of installation and reliability in mind. Key structural elements include:

• Polypropylene (PP) body: Provides mechanical strength and chemical resistance.
• Clamping ring: Made of POM polyacetal, effectively presses the PE pipe, creating a tight connection. The profile of the cut and the shape of the ring teeth significantly increase its effectiveness.
• 1-inch cylindrical BSPT-Rp internal thread (ISO 7-1 / EN 10226-1): Allows easy connection to other installation elements with external threads.
• Lubrication: The fitting is factory lubricated, which facilitates installation and ensures proper sealing.
• Reinforcing rings (for internal threads from 1 1/4”): Increase resistance to internal pressure.

Advantages and application

Gebo Plast fittings stand out for a number of advantages that will be appreciated by both professional installers and end users:

• Wide application: Ideal for water supply, irrigation, industrial and swimming pool installations.
• Easy installation: Does not require specialized tools or dismantling of the fitting in difficult terrain.
• High tightness: Ensured by the precise design of the clamping ring and appropriate materials.
• Durability: Made of high-quality materials resistant to corrosion and mechanical damage.
• DVGW approvals: Confirm the highest product quality and compliance with applicable standards.
• UV resistance: The conical nut made of UV-resistant polypropylene ensures long-term color stability and mechanical properties.

Using this fitting allows for the construction of solid and safe installations that will serve for many years without failure. This is particularly important in installations exposed to changing weather conditions or mechanical loads.
