End piece, 1" F; 25

Product detailed description

End pieces are commonly used in heating and plumbing systems to terminate pipe runs and connect flexible hoses. They are frequently installed in domestic and commercial buildings, including residential heating systems, hot water circuits, and industrial water supply lines. Installers and technicians encounter these fittings in applications where a secure and leak-proof connection to a hose or flexible pipe is required. The fitting is designed for use in systems operating at moderate temperatures and pressures, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.

Correct selection and installation of end pieces are essential to ensure system integrity and prevent leaks. The fitting must be compatible with the system's pressure and temperature conditions, as well as the type of hose or pipe being connected. The external thread design allows for straightforward installation using standard plumbing tools. It is important to ensure that the mating thread is clean and free of debris to avoid damage during tightening.

Technical parameters

Installation and connection

This end piece is designed for connection to an external thread of 1 inch F; 25. The fitting is tightened manually or with a wrench to ensure a secure connection. It is important to apply a suitable sealing compound or thread tape to the male thread to prevent leaks. During installation, the installer should verify that the thread is undamaged and that the fitting is aligned correctly with the pipe or hose. Common installation errors include over-tightening, which can damage the fitting or the mating thread, and using an incorrect thread type or size.

Compatibility and accessories

This end piece is compatible with systems using 1 inch external threads and is intended for use with flexible hoses or rigid pipes that have a corresponding female thread. For a complete connection, a hose with a matching thread or a hose coupling may be required. No specific accessories are required for installation, but sealing tape or compound should be used to ensure a watertight connection. No related products are available for this model.

Technical background for designers

The end piece functions as a threaded termination point for a pipe or hose connection. The CW617N brass material is chosen for its corrosion resistance and mechanical strength, making it suitable for use in water-based systems. The PN 10 rating ensures that the fitting can handle the typical pressures encountered in domestic and light industrial applications. The operating temperature of +120 °C allows for use in hot water and heating systems. The material's properties, including its resistance to dezincification and its approval for potable water, contribute to the fitting's long service life and reliability in the system.

Service and operation

During operation, the end piece requires no regular maintenance. However, it is important to periodically inspect the connection for signs of leakage or thread damage. If a leak is detected, the fitting should be removed and inspected for wear or damage. No specific service intervals are provided for this model, but any signs of corrosion or mechanical damage should be addressed promptly to prevent system failure.
