Steel/Groove connector - 42/48.3 1509042024

Steel transition fitting for KAN-therm Steel systems

This steel transition fitting, also known as a Steel/Groove connector, is a key element of the KAN-therm Steel system. It is used to connect elements of different diameters in heating and cooling installations. Its construction based on "Press" technology ensures quick and safe installation without the need for open flame – which is particularly important on the construction site.

Construction and materials

Made of carbon steel, the connector is characterized by high mechanical strength and resistance to loads. The pipe surface is covered with a layer of zinc (Fe/Zn88) with a thickness of 8-15 µm, additionally protected with chromium, which provides effective protection against corrosion and extends the life of the connection. A built-in O-ring seal guarantees a reliable connection seal.

Application and compatibility

The Steel/Groove 42/48.3 connector is designed to connect pipes with diameters of 42 mm and 48.3 mm in the KAN-therm Steel system. This system is widely used in internal pressurized heating and cooling installations. Thanks to a wide range of diameters (from 12 mm to 108 mm), the KAN-therm Steel system is versatile and can be used in various installation projects. Additionally, the function of signaling unpressed connections facilitates the identification of potential problems and increases the safety of the installation.

Key features:

• Durability and resistance: Made of carbon steel with a zinc and chromium coating, ensuring long-term protection against corrosion.
• Quick installation: "Press" technology enables quick and safe connection without welding or soldering.
• Tightness: O-ring seal guarantees a reliable connection without leaks.
• Versatility: Compatible with a wide range of pipe diameters in the KAN-therm Steel system.
• Safety: No need for open flame during installation minimizes the risk of fire.
• Leakage signaling: Function of signaling unpressed connections facilitates quality control of the installation.
