Steel reducing nipple 22/15 1509221023

Reducing nipple for steel installations

This Steel reducing nipple, with diameters of 22/15 mm, is a reliable solution for connecting pipes in heating and chilled water systems. Made of carbon steel with a galvanized coating (Fe/Zn88), it provides durability and corrosion resistance, which is crucial in demanding installation conditions. It is an element designed for press connections, which significantly speeds up and simplifies installation.

Construction and application

The reducer is designed to connect pipes of different diameters – 22 mm and 15 mm. Its construction based on socket and compression end connections guarantees the tightness and strength of the connection. An EPDM seal further protects against leaks. This makes the reducer perfect for installations where precision and reliability are required. The length of the reducer is 61 mm, and its working dimensions (connections 1 and 2) have been precisely matched to standard steel pipes.

Advantages for the installer and user

• Fast installation: Pressing technology eliminates the need for welding or screwing, reducing installation time.
• Tightness: O-ring seal with EPDM and precise workmanship guarantee a tight connection, minimizing the risk of leaks.
• Durability: Carbon steel with a galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance and long element life.
• LBP function: The use of the LBP (Leak Before Press) controlled leak function allows for easy detection of incorrectly pressed connections even before filling the installation – this saves time and repair costs.
• Reduced pressure loss: Precise execution of the reducer minimizes constrictions in the installation, which translates to better hydraulic parameters and lower pressure losses.
• Versatility: Suitable for heating and chilled water installations (not suitable for hot/cold water or circulation).
• Compatibility: It is part of the KAN-therm Steel system, which ensures full compatibility with other elements of this system.
