GF Building Flow Solutions has expanded its Uponor S-Press PLUS press fittings portfolio with the Uponor S-Press PLUS adapter swivel nut, which adds to the hundreds of components already in the range. The swivel nut has been designed to streamline the installation process and minimise the risk of errors that can occur with compression fittings.
The Uponor S-Press PLUS adapter swivel nut provides a releasable screw connector for connection to on-wall fittings, filters and shut-off valves. The other end of the adapter features an Uponor S-Press PLUS press connection fitting. When compared with compression fittings the Uponor S-Press PLUS adapter swivel nut is easier and faster to install and minimises the risk of installation errors. It is available in a range of sizes to meet various installation requirements and can be supplied with Euro cone and Uni C cone connections.
The use of a swivel nut connector removes the need to rotate the connected pipe or fitting, making it simpler to connect components in tight or awkward spaces. It also allows easier adjustment and positioning without stressing or twisting the pipe or hose. In addition, swivel nuts can be disconnected and reconnected faster than compression fittings and are more reusable, making maintenance and repairs more straightforward.
S-Press PLUS is the perfect solution for ensuring easy, robust and reliable pipe connections with a simple three step installation. The fittings feature Uponor’s unique press indicator to allow easy identification on inadvertently unpressed connections using a specially designed indicator foil that detaches when the connection has been made. Available in dimensions from 16 to 32 mm in both metal and plastic, S-Press PLUS is just part of the whole building solution that Uponor offers. The S-Press fittings are suitable for dimensions from 40 to 75 mm and for 63 to 110 mm pipework there are the Uponor RS modular riser fittings.
