Description

Solder Ring Long Fitting Reducer

The Solder Ring Long Fitting Reducer is a copper Solder Ring long fitting reducer, available in 15mm x 8mm and 15mm x 10mm. Solder is built into the fitting, so the joint is made by cleaning, fluxing and heating, with no extra solder needed.

Solder Ring Long Fitting Reducer has a long stem and are soldered into another fitting to reduce its size and are pre-soldered capillary connectors used in plumbing and are ideal when fitting pipes in confined spaces…

To obtain perfect joints, the inside of the fitting and the outside of the copper pipe are cleaned using coarse steel wool, flux paste is applied, the pipe is inserted into the fitting and heat applied from a portable propane torch until a ring of solder shows at the edges of the fitting. To obtain a durable joint, water must not be poured on the solder joint to cool it. Fittings are now made with lead-free solder.

This is a simple and cost-effective method of joining copper tubes to standard EN 1057.
Suitable for use above ground and on hot or cold domestic and commercial systems

The fittings come in a great variety of configurations, such as Tee-pieces, straight couplers, elbows or bends, reducers (to join pipes of different diameters), stop-ends, and there are versions with screw threads (male or female) at one end to fit taps and galvanised iron pipes.

Common Questions

What is a solder ring long fitting reducer? It is a reducer with a long stem that solders into another fitting to bring it down to a smaller pipe. The solder is already in the ring, so you clean, flux and heat.

What sizes do the long fitting reducers come in? They come in 15mm x 8mm and 15mm x 10mm, handy for dropping down to microbore heating pipe.

How do I make a joint with a solder ring reducer? Clean the pipe and the inside of the fitting with wire wool, flux it, push the pipe in and heat until a ring of solder shows round the edge. Let it cool on its own rather than throwing water over it.

How is a long fitting reducer different from a reducing coupler? A coupler takes pipe in both ends, but the long fitting reducer has a stem that goes into the socket of another fitting. That lets you drop a 15mm fitting down to 10mm or 8mm pipe without an extra joint.

Is the solder in these reducers lead free? Yes, the fittings are now made with lead-free solder, and the body is copper to EN 1254.

Can I use the reducer on hot and cold water? Yes, it suits above ground work on hot or cold domestic and commercial systems, with copper tube to EN 1057.
