Can the Angle connector with BSP female thread, brass, type AI 13290 be used with plastic hoses like polyamide and what sealing method is required?

Yes. Angle connector with BSP female thread, brass, type AI 13290 can be used with plastic hoses such as polyamide. The product description explicitly lists plastic pipes and hoses (e.g., polyamide) among compatible media and supports external diameters from 4 to 18 mm. Sealing method: the joint is made by crimping a ring onto the connected pipe/hose and then tightening the nut, which presses the pipe with the crimped ring into the socket to achieve tightness. This mechanical crimping-plus-nut compression is the required sealing method. The fitting conforms to EN 1254-2 and is made of brass.

Is the Angle connector with BSP female thread, brass, type AI 13290 compatible with 4â18 mm copper, steel, aluminum and plastic pipes like polyamide?

Yes. The Angle connector with BSP female thread, brass, type AI 13290 is compatible with copper, brass, steel, aluminum and plastic pipes (e.g., polyamide) with external diameters from 4 to 18 mm. The connection is made by crimping the ring onto the pipe and tightening the nut to press the ringed pipe into the socket, ensuring a tight seal. The fitting meets EN 1254-2 and is made of brass.

Does the Angle connector with BSP female thread, brass, type AI 13290 meet EN 1254-2 requirements for crimped joints?

Based on the provided description, the Angle connector with BSP female thread, brass, type AI 13290 appears designed as a crimped-joint fitting: it achieves tightness by crimping a ring onto the connected pipe and pressing the pipe with the ring into the socket using a nut. EN 1254-2 covers copper and copper alloy fittings for use with flexible and rigid copper tubes and specifies requirements and test methods for press and crimp type fittings (materials, dimensions, mechanical strength, tightness, resistance to internal pressure, and marking). Given that: - the fitting material is brass (compatible with EN 1254-2 scope for copper alloys), - the connection method is a crimped ring pressed into a socket (a crimp/press-type joint), - the stated standard is EN 1254-2, it is reasonable to conclude that Angle connector with BSP female thread, brass, type AI 13290 is intended to meet EN 1254-2 requirements for crimped joints. Final conformance, however, depends on documented evidence: test reports, manufacturerâs declaration of conformity, or CE/UKCA marking showing compliance with EN 1254-2. Without those documents, compliance cannot be definitively confirmed.
