LavaPlumb Copper Press Fit Slip Coupler 15mm, M Profile Fitting Tool Required Not Push Fit, No Tube Stop So It Slides Over for Repairs, WRAS DVGW and BSI Approved

Press Tool Required - Not Push Fit: This is an M Profile press fit fitting. You need a compatible press gun and the matching M15, M22 or M28 jaw to compress the sleeve and seat the EPDM O-ring. It cannot be hand-assembled. No Tube Stop - Slip Pattern: Unlike a standard coupler, the slip coupler has no internal tube stop. You can slide the fitting fully onto one pipe end, then pull it back to bridge a gap - essential for in-line pipe repairs without cutting out extra pipe. Designed for In-Line Repairs: When a length of pipe has a split or pinhole, you cut out the damaged section, slide the slip coupler fully over one end, insert the new section, then slide the fitting back to centre and press both sides. EPDM O-Ring Seal - Permanent Joint: The black EPDM sealing element is rated for decades in UK domestic water and heating conditions. Deburr the pipe ends and insert to depth before pressing. No Naked Flame - No Hot Works Permit: No solder, no flux, no open flame. Carry out pipe repairs in occupied buildings and confined spaces without requiring hot works permits.
