Male thread copper gas fitting - 18 R1/2" 2263045002

Copper fitting for gas and technical installations

The GZ Copper Gas fitting is a reliable solution for connecting copper pipes in gas and technical installations, such as compressed air or inert gases. Made of high-quality CU-DHP copper and 2.109 bronze, it ensures durability and corrosion resistance. The fitting is designed for press connections, guaranteeing quick and safe installation without the need for soldering.

Construction and application

The fitting has a tapered external thread (NPT) with a diameter of 1/2 inch and a clamping sleeve adapted for pipes with an outer diameter of 15 mm (18 mm). This allows connecting a copper pipe to an element with an external thread. Equipped with an NBR O-ring seal, it ensures tightness in the temperature range of 20°C to 70°C and pressure up to 5 bar. This makes it ideal for both new installations and modernization of existing ones.

Advantages for the installer and user

• Quick installation: "Press" technology eliminates time-consuming soldering, shortening installation time and reducing labor costs.
• Safety: No need to use open flame during installation minimizes fire risk, especially important during renovation of existing installations.
• Durability and reliability: The use of CU-DHP copper and 2.109 bronze guarantees corrosion resistance and long connection life. The three-point "M" clamp ensures a secure and safe connection.
• Versatility: Can be used in gas installations (natural gas, LPG), compressed air and technical gases (after consulting with the manufacturer).
• Tightness: The NBR O-ring seal ensures a tight connection over a wide range of temperatures and pressures.
• Aesthetics: The KAN-therm Copper Gas system is characterized by aesthetic workmanship, which affects the appearance of the entire installation.

Compatibility and standards

The fitting is compatible with the KAN-therm Copper Gas system and copper pipes compliant with EN 1057 R220/R250/R290 standard. It is important to select the appropriate wall thickness of the pipe depending on its diameter – soft (R220), medium hard (R250) and hard (R290) pipes are available. Choosing the right material will ensure optimal strength and safety of the installation.
