Brass transition fitting ultraPRESS/Push - 16/18x2.0 1009042149

Universal connector for KAN-therm ultraPRESS and Push systems

This brass transition connector is designed to connect pipes of different diameters in KAN-therm ultraPRESS and Push systems. Made of high-quality brass (CW617N), it ensures durability and reliability of connections in water and heating installations. Its design allows transition from the ultraPRESS press-fit system to push-fit fittings, providing flexibility during installation.

Construction and application

This connector is ideal for creating connections between pipes with diameters of 16 mm and 18 mm, which is often required when connecting various installation elements. A bending angle of 90 degrees facilitates routing pipelines in tight spaces. It utilizes a clamping sleeve and a push-fit connection, ensuring tightness and safety of use. Additionally, the use of an EPDM O-ring seal guarantees long-term connection reliability.

Functionality and benefits

• Controlled Leak LBP: The LBP (Leak Before Press) controlled leak function is an important safety feature – in the event of incomplete or incorrect pressing, a visible leak appears, allowing for quick identification and repair of the problem before flooding the installation.
• Versatility: Compatible with both homogeneous and multilayer pipes, increasing its application in various types of installations.
• Durability: Brass construction provides corrosion resistance and long life even in harsh operating conditions.
• Easy installation: A stainless steel clamping ring is supplied with the connector, and the diameter identification ring facilitates correct selection of pressing tools.
• Use of U and TH crimping profiles: Depending on the fitting diameter and construction (KAN‑therm ultraPRESS/KAN‑therm ultraPRESS LBP), "U" or "TH" crimping jaw profiles are used for installation. For a diameter of 26 mm, profile "C" or "TH" is used.
• High quality workmanship: Ensures a secure and tight connection, minimizing the risk of installation failure.
