Press Fit Water Elbow - 22Mm

Press Fit Water Elbow - 22Mm

The Press Fit Water Elbow in 22mm is a modern, flame-free copper fitting used to create a permanent, leak-proof 90-degree change of direction in 22mm copper pipework. This elbow utilises a mechanical cold-connection system, eliminating the need for soldering (flux, heat, and fire risk) entirely. The joint is created by compressing the fitting onto the pipe using a specialised pressing tool, making it ideal for larger pipe runs, concealed work, and installations where safety and speed are paramount.

Technical Specifications and Flame-Free Advantage
Pipe Connection: 22mm Press Fit – Creates a secure, mechanical seal.

Configuration: Equal Elbow (C x C) – Both ports are the same size (22mm).

Angle: 90 Degrees – For standard right-angle turns in the pipe run.

The Installer's Advantage for Speed and Safety
The 22mm press fit elbow significantly reduces installation time compared to traditional soldering, particularly on larger pipes which require more heat. It is essential for installers prioritising speed, consistency, and safety by completely removing the fire risk associated with naked flames.
