Tectite is the fast way to make joints

14 July, 2007

Compact and fast to install, Pegler Yorkshire’s Tectite Sprint range of push-fittings provide electrical continuity.

A potential saving in installation time of up to 67% is claimed using Tectite Sprint push-fit fittings in plumbing and heating systems by Pegler Yorkshire. The are made of copper or DZR brass in sizes from 10 to 28 mm. These slim-line fittings cannot be disconnected but they have the benefit of being able to be installed in confined spaces. Used with copper tube, electrical continuity is ensured and pipes behind wall surfaces can be readily detected, unlike plastics pipes that require metallic tape to be applied to comply with the latest NHBC housing regulations. Tectite fittings are guaranteed for 30 years and can also be used with polybutylene pipes.
