The WittFix pipe installation system uses unique O-ring jointfittings that eliminate the need for silver soldering or welding ofjoints, reducing installation times and making installations forshort term use feasible, since the pipe can be re-used.
A full range of adaptors is available in brass or stainless steelincluding equal couplers, straight line connectors, tee-pieces and90degree bends.
All joints can be made gas tight by initially hand tightening andthen using a spanner for the final tightening, for pressures up to25 bar.
Fittings for higher pressures can be made to order.
A feature of this system is that no marks are made to the surfaceof the pipe, provided no excessive force is used, allowing the pipeto be re-used.
