Male thread connector Steel - 18 R1/2" 1509045006

Solid connection in steel installations – KAN-therm Steel GZ connector 18 x 1/2"

This steel GZ connector from KAN-therm is a reliable element for creating durable and safe connections in central heating, chilled water, process heat and industrial installations. Made of high-quality carbon steel, it provides corrosion resistance and high pressure resistance, and precise workmanship guarantees tightness. The connector is designed to connect pipes with a diameter of 18 mm with a 1/2 inch external thread.

Construction and installation

The connector is designed for the KAN-therm Steel pressing system, which significantly speeds up and simplifies installation compared to traditional threading or welding methods. The "Press" technology eliminates the risk of errors during connection and allows for quick installation even of large diameters. In addition, the connector is equipped with an EPDM gasket, which ensures long-term tightness of the connection. The LBP (Leak Before Press) function is an additional safety feature – it signals an unpressed connection, minimizing the risk of leakage.

Application and benefits

The KAN-therm Steel GZ connector is used both in new installations and in the modernization of existing ones. It is ideal for installers looking for quick, reliable and durable solutions. Thanks to its resistance to high pressure (up to 25 bar) and temperature (up to 200°C), it will work in demanding operating conditions. Carbon steel provides mechanical strength and resistance to damage, which is particularly important in places exposed to contact with people or external factors. The KAN-therm Steel system is also characterized by low hydraulic resistance, which translates into the efficiency of the entire installation.
