New Convenience to Our Lives - Axial Fittings!

10.12.2021

With the popularity of underfloor heating systems in recent years, compression (with nuts) and press fittings for polyethylene pipes (PEX and PE-RT) were already widely used. The advantage of fast installation has attracted attention and now cross-linked polyethylene pipes such as PEX-a and PEX-b are used in drinking water connections, radiator connections and also for hot water supply.
In the last few years, Axial Fittings, also known as "Slip Sleeve System", have attracted attention due to their reliability in sealing compared to compression and press fittings, their easy assembly and ability to be disassembled and reassembled in case of failure.

As one of the rare brands that produce this product group in Turkey, Emirplast products includes a wide range of axial products from 16mm diameter to 32mm.

Pipe wall thicknesses compatible with Emirplast Axial fittings
Size, mm Pipe wall thicknesses, mm
16 2,2
20 2,8
25 3,5
32 4,4

The assembly of the axial fittings is carried out by pulling the sleeve on the pipe towards the fitting with a mechanical or electrical installation tool after pipe expansion, compressing the pipe in between. In case of incorrect assembly, the pipe and sleeve are removed by heating, and the pipe, which has been restored thanks to its structure, can be reused with the same brass sleeve.
