Is the Angle fitting with BSPT male thread, brass, type AI 13280 compatible with plastic pipes like polyamide and hose sizes from 4 to 22 mm?

Yes. Angle fitting with BSPT male thread, brass, type AI 13280 is compatible with plastic pipes such as polyamide and with hose/pipe outer diameters in the 4â22 mm range. The product description explicitly states it is designed for connecting copper, brass, steel, aluminum pipes as well as plastic pipes and hoses (e.g., polyamide). Connection tightness is achieved by compressing a ring onto the pipe and pressing it into the socket with a nut, meeting EN 1254-2 standard.

Can Angle fitting with BSPT male thread, brass, type AI 13280 be used with different pipe materials (copper, steel, aluminum, plastic) without additional seals?

Short answer: Generally yes for metals (copper, brass, steel, aluminum) and compatible plastics like polyamide, but only if you use the correct pipe type/diameter and the factory-supplied compression parts; no additional sealant is normally required. Explanation: Angle fitting with BSPT male thread, brass, type AI 13280 seals by compressing a ring (olive) onto the pipe and pressing it into the socket with the nut per EN 1254-2. For metal pipes (copper, brass, steel, aluminum) this compression joint provides a reliable, leakâtight seal without extra seals. For plastics (e.g., polyamide) compatibility depends on pipe stiffness and wall thickness-rigid, approved plastic pipes designed for compression fittings can work without extra seals; flexible plastics/hose may need inserts or manufacturerâspecified support rings. Always match pipe OD (4â22 mm), use recommended inserts/supports for plastics, and follow installation torque and manufacturer instructions.

Does the Angle fitting with BSPT male thread, brass, type AI 13280 require specific installation torque values?

Angle fitting with BSPT male thread, brass, type AI 13280 does not have torque values specified in the provided product description. The connection relies on compressing a ferrule (ring) onto the pipe and tightening a nut to press the ferrule and pipe into the socket for sealing (standard: EN 1254-2). For such compression fittings, correct installation depends on proper assembly procedure rather than a single universal torque number, because required tightening depends on pipe material, pipe diameter (4â22 mm range), nut condition, and tooling. Recommended practice: - Follow the manufacturerâs assembly instructions if available (they may give tightening turns, hand-plus-wrench guidance, or torque recommendations). - If no manufacturer torque is provided, tighten until the ferrule compresses and the joint feels firm: typically tighten by hand until fingerâtight, then use a wrench to give an additional 1â1.5 turns (or as advised by the fitting maker) while supporting the fitting to avoid overtensioning. - For critical applications, perform a test joint and leak/hearâtest under working pressure, or consult the vendor for exact torque figures. - Avoid excessive torque: over-tightening can deform the ferrule or pipe, causing leaks or damageâespecially on softer materials (plastic, aluminium). - Use calibrated torque wrenches when installing many fittings or when certification requires documented installation torque. If you need exact torque values for Angle fitting with BSPT male thread, brass, type AI 13280, request the manufacturerâs installation sheet or technical support.
