Common Questions

Which way round does a reducing coupler go?

Either way, as long as each end takes the right pipe. The bigger end goes on the larger pipe, for example 22mm, and the smaller end takes the 15mm.

What would I use the 15mm x 12mm for?

It joins 12mm pipe, found on some older or imported installations, onto standard 15mm copper.

Can the small end take plastic microbore?

Yes, with the insert the pipe maker specifies pushed into the plastic pipe beforehand. Without it the olive squashes the soft pipe.
