- No loose components: Grip ring and seal remain captive in the body when the nut is removed.
- Interchangeability: Rural, Safelok® and 3G® Metric components are all interchangeable as they share a common body.
- Made from Advanced Materials: The fitting is manufactured from lightweight, high-performance thermoplastic materials with outstanding impact, UV and corrosion resistance. The materials used are non-toxic and taint-free.
- Slide and Tighten™: Incorporating all the benefits of Slide and Tighten™ technology with 100% positive feedback.
- Disassembly: The fitting has been designed so the grip ring is released as the nut is backed off, enabling the pipe to be simply pulled out of the fitting.
- Compact Size: The size of Metric fittings has been kept to a minimum making this fitting ideal to use in compact spaces.
- Minimal pipe twist: The fitting is designed to minimise pipe twist, reducing the risk of loosening joints.
- Visual stop: The flange on the body of the fitting acts as a visual cue to indicate when the nut is fully tightened. Once the nut touches the flange on the body, the fitting is in a fully tightened state.
