• Fusion bonded epoxy coating in compliance with DIN 3476 part 1 and EN 14901, GSK approved, RAL 5017 
• A standard PE pipe is pressed onto the grooved valve end, locked with a steel ring and sealed with a plastic shrink hose. The boltless, full bore PE end connection is tensile resistant and stronger than the PE pipe itself. The PE pipe end enables direct welding into PE pipes resulting in a fast and secure assembly.
  Note: The maximum working temperature of 20°C is set according to the ISO9080 lifetime requirements for PE pipes. For higher working temperatures expect a reduction of the PE pipe’s lifetime. Please refer to the local pipe manufacturer for further information
