Compression coupling Comap MultiSkin brass/tinned 16x16 — plumbing fitting

Compression coupling Comap MultiSkin brass/tinned 16x16 is a plumbing fitting designed to join two 16 mm pipes with a reliable mechanical seal. Made of brass with a tinned finish, the coupling provides corrosion resistance and is suitable for potable water and heating systems. The product is intended for use in installations where a durable, low-maintenance connection is required and where soldering or threaded joints are not desirable.

Advantages

The Comap MultiSkin compression coupling offers a secure press-fit connection that reduces installation time by eliminating the need for soldering or threading. The brass construction with tinned surface enhances corrosion resistance and longevity in contact with potable water and heating media. The compact 16x16 size is suitable for tight spaces and standard residential plumbing layouts, while the design ensures steady hydraulic performance and leak-tight joints when installed according to guidelines.

Suitable for

• Joining two 16 mm copper, multilayer or compatible plastic-clad pipes in plumbing systems
• Potable water distribution in residential and commercial buildings
• Central heating circuits and radiator connections where 16 mm lines are used
• Repair or modification of existing 16 mm pipe runs without soldering

Key specifications

• Material: brass with tinned finish for enhanced corrosion resistance
• Connection type: compression (press-fit) coupling for 16 mm pipe ends
• Nominal pipe size: 16 x 16 mm
• Typical applications: potable water and heating systems
• Installation: mechanical joint designed for permanent, leak-tight connections

How to use

Prepare the pipes by cutting squarely and deburring the ends to ensure a clean, even surface. Slide the compression coupling onto the prepared pipe ends and position the coupling so that each pipe reaches the designated stop. Use the recommended pressing tool or follow the manufacturer's installation method to form the mechanical seal. After installation, verify alignment and inspect the joint for visible defects. Pressure-test the system according to applicable norms before putting it into regular operation.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate pressing tools and follow local plumbing codes and manufacturer installation instructions. Ensure compatibility of pipe material with the compression coupling and avoid applying excessive mechanical stress on newly formed joints. Perform pressure testing after installation and inspect periodically as part of routine system maintenance.
