ARCO Female Coupling 16 x 2.00 - 1/2 inch

The ARCO female coupling 16 x 2.00 - 1/2 inch is a professional-grade plumbing component engineered for creating secure and leak-proof connections between multilayer pipes and threaded systems. Designed with precision, this fitting ensures optimal flow and structural integrity in residential and commercial water supply or heating installations. Its robust construction provides resistance to pressure and temperature fluctuations, making it a reliable choice for long-term plumbing infrastructure.

Advantages

This coupling stands out due to its high-quality materials that prevent corrosion and ensure a long service life. The precise manufacturing process guarantees a perfect fit with 16 x 2.00 mm pipes, significantly reducing the risk of installation errors or joint failures. Its compact design allows for easy integration into tight spaces, while the standardized 1/2 inch female thread ensures compatibility with a wide range of valves, adapters, and other plumbing hardware.

Suitable for

• Connecting multilayer pipes to threaded components
• Residential water supply systems
• Heating and radiator installations
• Professional plumbing maintenance and repairs

When it may not be suitable

This coupling is not intended for use with pipes of different diameters or materials other than those specified. It should not be used in high-pressure industrial steam systems or applications involving aggressive chemical substances that may degrade the fitting material.

Key specifications

• Pipe interface: 16 x 2.00 mm
• Thread type: 1/2 inch female
• Application: Water supply and heating systems
• Material: Corrosion-resistant alloy

How to use

To install the coupling, ensure the pipe end is cut cleanly and deburred to prevent damage to the internal seals. Insert the pipe into the fitting until it reaches the stop point. Use appropriate plumbing tools to tighten the connection securely, ensuring that the threaded side is properly sealed with compatible thread sealant or tape if required. Always perform a pressure test after installation to verify that the connection is completely sealed.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the outer diameter and wall thickness of your existing piping
• Ensure the thread type matches your existing system components
• Check if additional sealing materials like PTFE tape are needed for your specific installation

Usage recommendations

Always follow local plumbing codes and manufacturer guidelines during installation. Avoid overtightening the threaded connection to prevent damage to the fitting threads.
