Female thread connector K5 C/Z water PN10 25/1" 3079794

Universal connector for water and heating

The GW K5 C/Z connector is a reliable solution for connecting pipes in water and heating installations. Made of high-quality polyphenylene sulfone (PPSU), it is characterized by corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance and mechanical damage. The connector design combines a compression sleeve with an internal thread, allowing connection of pipes with different diameters – 25 mm (1 inch) and 20 mm (DN20). This is an ideal solution for both professionals and end-users who value durability and ease of installation.

Design and application

The connector is designed for creating tight connections in Tigris K5 systems, but thanks to its compatibility with existing Wavin multilayer systems, it can also be used in older installations. Equipped with EPDM rubber seals, it ensures tightness without the risk of leaks. Additionally, the presence of a retaining collar increases the stability of the connection. The use of PPSU guarantees resistance to stress cracking and resistance to deposits and corrosion, which translates into a long service life of the installation. The connector is used in drinking water, central heating and cooling installations.

Advantages and characteristic features

• Durability and reliability: Made of PPSU, resistant to high temperatures (up to 70°C continuous operation, briefly up to 100°C) and pressure (up to 10 bar).
• Easy installation: The Tigris K5 radial pressing system ensures quick and secure installation without the need for specialized tools other than a fitting press.
• Tightness: EPDM seals guarantee a tight connection without the risk of leaks.
• Chemical resistance: PPSU is resistant to many chemicals, which increases the durability of the installation.
• Compatibility: Can be used with existing Wavin multilayer pipe systems.
• Leak detection: The Acoustic Leak Alert system allows quick location of any leaks during air testing of the installation.
• Lead-free DZR brass: Threaded inserts made of lead-free DZR brass ensure drinking water hygiene and dezincification resistance in accordance with PN EN 12165.
• Optimal flow: Optimized design ensures minimal pressure loss thanks to OPTIFLOW technology.
• Wide range of applications: Ideal for drinking water, heating and cooling installations.
