>B< Oyster, launched by Conex Bänninger back in 2002, is becoming increasingly popular amongst a new generation of installers.
Suitable for a wide range of applications, including the installation of transitional adaptors and valves; it can also be used to quickly repair damaged sections of pipe.
As a flame-free fitting, no hot works permit is required. Installation is quick and easy using >B< Oyster pliers and a standard adjustable spanner. Two EPDM O-rings seal against the tube and fitting ensuring a reliable leak-free joint is achieved.
>B< Oyster is available in nickel-plate, as well as yellow and red brass. Designed with male parallel threads, this allows connection to a wide variety of ISO 228 parallel female threaded fittings.
Once the tube is fitted, it can be rotated through 360° whilst maintaining a reliable, leak-free joint. This makes it ideal for installers when working in tight spaces. >B< Oyster is demountable.
WRAS approved, >B< Oyster is available in sizes from 15mm to 54mm and has a maximum operating pressure of 16 bar. When installed correctly, it is guaranteed for 25 years.
