Polyplumb Pushfit Spigot Elbow - 22Mm

Polyplumb Pushfit Spigot Elbow - 22Mm

The Polyplumb Enhanced Pushfit Spigot Elbow in 22mm is a specialized, WRAS Approved fitting designed for creating a secure right-angle turn while facilitating the essential transition from a flexible plastic pipe to a rigid copper system or a female compression fitting. One side features the secure push-fit connection for plastic pipe, and the other is a plain 22mm copper spigot end ready for soldering or insertion into another fitting.

Key Features and Installation Advantages
WRAS Approved: Certified as WRAS Approved, ensuring full compliance with the UK Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations, making it safe and legally compliant for all domestic water and heating installations.

Size Compatibility: Connects 22mm Polybutylene (PB) or PEX barrier pipe on the push-fit side.

Spigot End: The other side features a 22mm plain copper spigot end, which is designed for:

Soldering into a 22mm copper socket fitting (e.g., a copper coupling).

Insertion into a 22mm female compression fitting.

Configuration: Creates a right-angle turn while bridging the gap between larger plastic push-fit pipe and copper/compression components, often used on primary heating lines.

Enhanced Technology (Push-Fit Side): Uses the advanced collet and O-ring mechanism to grip the plastic pipe and create a reliable, watertight seal instantly upon insertion.

Flame-Free (Plastic Side): The connection to the plastic pipe is achieved without heat, offering a safe, quick way to connect to copper components.

The Installer's Advantage
The 22mm Polyplumb Spigot Elbow is an invaluable hybrid component for main circuits. It offers a simple, direct, and reliable way to connect a flexible plastic main run to fixed copper pipework or to appliances with compression connections (such as larger valves or pumps). This flexibility and ease of connection save significant time and complexity on site.
