Speedfit introduces grey range

JG Speedfit has introduced a grey range of plastics pipes and fittings to complement the existing white range. There are over 40 fittings, appliance and shut-off taps, as well as PEX and polybutylene barrier pipes in 10, 15 and 22 mm sizes. Both the white and grey ranges of fittings use the Speedfit push-fit connection system. A collet or gripper with stainless-steel teeth grips the pipe and makes it secure. An O ring makes a permanent leakproof connection with minimum insertion force. Connections can be broken and the parts reused. The Speedfit system is approved by the BBA and WRAS and kitemarked to BS 7291, Parts 1, 2 and 3. There is a 25-year guarantee against manufacturing and material defects.
