Female thread connector 1.4404 Inox - 18 Rp1/2" 1609042002

Robust connection in stainless steel installations

The GW 1.4404 Inox connector is a reliable solution for connecting pipes and components made of stainless steel. Made of high-quality stainless steel 316L (1.4404), it provides corrosion resistance and long-lasting tightness, even in harsh operating conditions. It is ideal for potable water systems, heating, cooling and industrial installations.

Design and application

The connector has a compression socket connection on one side and a tapered BSPT-Rc (ISO 7-1 / EN 10226-1) internal gas thread with a diameter of 1/2 inch (DN 15) on the other. This allows for easy and secure connection to pipes with an outer diameter of 18 mm. The length of the connector is 37 mm, and its design ensures stability and strength of the connection. The seal made of ethylene-propylene-diene monomer (EDPM) rubber guarantees tightness and minimizes the risk of leaks.

LBP controlled leak function and benefits for the installer

The connector belongs to the Kan-Therm Inox series, characterized by the LBP (Leak Before Press) controlled leak function. This means that in the event of incorrect crimping of the connector, the leak will occur before full compression, allowing you to detect the error and avoid more serious problems in the future. This significantly facilitates the installer's work and increases the certainty of proper installation. In addition, stainless steel 316L is a material that is exceptionally resistant to corrosion, which translates into a long service life and minimal operating costs.

• Strength and resistance: Made of stainless steel 316L guarantees resistance to corrosion and high temperatures (up to 135°C continuous operation).
• Tightness: EPDM seal provides reliable sealing of the connection.
• Easy installation: Designed for crimping - quick and secure installation without welding.
• Quality control: LBP function facilitates detection of errors during crimping.
• Versatility: Can be used in various types of installations - water, heating, cooling and industrial.
• Compliance with standards: Ensures safe and compliant connections in installations.
