Aquatherm 20MM PPR Socket

It is made from hardwearing PPR resin, offering resistance to high temperatures, chemical exposure, hydraulic shock, mold, and bacteria. These properties help ensure long-term performance in demanding environments.

Installation is straightforward: cut the 20mm PPR pipe square, clean the ends, fit the socket to the pipe using a compatible Aquatherm adapter, and then heat-shrink with a heat gun until the fitting is properly sized for a secure, leak-proof seal.

The PPR socket is available in a range of sizes, including a 20mm version designed for standard 20mm PPR pipes. Always verify compatibility with your specific pipe grade and the adapter being used.

It’s suitable for domestic water supply lines, heating systems, and other PPR piping applications where a durable, leak-proof connection is required and an Aquatherm adapter is used.

On Fepy you can compare the Aquatherm 20MM PPR Socket with other 20mm PPR fittings such as: PPR Socket 20mm (https://fepy.com/product/ppr-socket-20mm) and Aquatherm Adapter 20mm (https://fepy.com/product/aquatherm-adapter-20mm). These alternatives offer different joining methods or adapter requirements while serving similar piping sizes.

Use only with compatible PPR piping and approved adapters. The material is designed to be inert and resistant to mold and bacteria; avoid exposure to incompatible chemicals and ensure correct installation to prevent leaks.

Confirm the pipe size (20mm) and ensure you have the matching Aquatherm adapter or a compatible joining method. Check that your system is compatible with PPR and the intended temperature/pressure range.

After heating and shrinking the socket with a heat gun, inspect the seam for an even, tight fit around the pipe and adapter. Run water through the line and check for leaks at the joint.

If you need a durable, heat-resistant, easy-to-install 20mm PPR connection and you’re using Aquatherm adapters, this socket provides a reliable option with leak-proof performance and no welding.

Avoid applying heat beyond recommended levels and ensure the adapter size matches the pipe to prevent deformation. Do not use with incompatible pipes or solvents that could degrade PPR resin.

Periodically inspect the joint for signs of wear, cracks, or leaks. If damage is detected or if the system undergoes major changes, replace the socket or re-fit using the proper adapter.
