Coupling piece LPG-FIT Cone-Nut M12x1 Ø8mm FSF-04 for Plastic Pipe LPG-XD-4 (8mm)

Coupling piece LPG-FIT Cone-Nut M12x1 Ø8mm FSF-04 for Plastic Pipe LPG-XD-4 (8mm)

This part is used in combination with plastic LPG pipe LPG-XD-4 DN 6 (= Ø8 mm copper) and an LPG part with an M12x1 connection. Supplied together with a Union nut M12x1 Ø8 mm.

This type of coupler has a "chest/collar" with a conical rim on the end that provides the seal. (Just like a conical compression ring does). The advantage of this type of connector is that it can be reused, because the material does not deform.

Application: To connect plastic LPG pipe to, for example:
- An LPG gas valve (with M12x1 connections)
- An LPG Evaporator (with M12x1 input)
- The output of a Multivale on an LPG Tank (8mm version)

Fittings: A plastic LPG pipe is not connected directly to an LPG part, but coupling pieces are used on the ends of the pipe.

NB! A plastic LPG pipe is not connected directly to an LPG part, but coupling pieces are used on the ends of the pipe. These come in different shapes and sizes. There are also several types of plastic LPG pipe available. There are different diameters, but also brands and types of connectors. Make sure you use the correct one for your application in combination with the correct coupling pieces on the ends of the plastic pipe.

NB! Check the type of connection on the parts to which you want to connect the LPG pipe, such as the tank, gas valves, etc.

An Oetiker clamp (deformable hose clamp) is used to clamp the plastic pipe onto the coupling piece. This is included. Use an Oetiker forceps to squeeze this clamp properly. See also the images for illustration.

Tip! Apply a small amount of penetrating oil to the coupling O-rings before installing them in the plastic pipe. This simplifies the process.
