Coupling F x R thread - Stainless steel press fitting - V profile - FRABOPRESS 316 V

FRABOPRESS 316 V is a system made of pipes and fittings in stainless steel, material type 1.4401 (AISI 316L), complying with the requirements of UNI 11179 Class 1 standard, equipped with a cylindrical guide for the correct and safe insertion of the pipe and a preassembled elastomeric sealing element in black EPDM complying with UNI EN 681-1 standard.

FRABOPRESS 316 V fittings are equipped with the SECURFRABO safety system, whose functionality is tested in accordance with the DWGW W 534 work sheet (Point 12.14 - Fittings with controlled leakage), which allows any un-pressed fittings to be detected. During leakage tests with water, Securfrabo system guarantees the identification of un-pressed connection in the pressure range from 1 bar to 6.5 bar.

The pressing of the fittings is to be carried out with a suitable tool and with a correctly maintained pressing jaw, so as to achieve an indissoluble cold junction, resistant to torsion, and a hydraulic seal guaranteed by the O-ring. The right junction of Frabo fittings guarantees the use of the system considering a maximum temperature of 110 ° C, a minimum temperature of -10 ° C and a maximum pressure of 16 bar (conditions related to the transport of water).

All the components of the FRABOPRESS 316 V system comply with the D.M. 174-04 for use in sanitary water systems.
