T-connector clamp (screw) Comap 22 JEVCO COMAP (DWZ) MPN 8514022

The T-connector clamp (screw) by Comap, model 22 JEVCO COMAP (DWZ) is a mechanical screw-clamping T-connector intended for creating branch connections in piping or cable systems. It provides a reusable clamp joint that secures a branch to an existing line using a screw tightening mechanism. The product is designed for repair, retrofit and extension tasks where a removable and adjustable connection is required. Compatibility with pipe or cable material and diameter should be verified prior to installation.

Advantages

This screw-type T-connector offers a straightforward mechanical attachment that does not require welding or soldering, enabling faster installation and easier future disassembly. The clamp design allows for reuse and adjustment, making it suitable for temporary installations or iterative modifications. Its screw clamping mechanism provides controlled tightening force for a reliable mechanical hold when matched to compatible system materials and sizes.

Suitable for

• Creating branch connections on existing pipes or conduit where a mechanical clamp is acceptable
• Repairing or replacing short sections without dismantling large portions of the system
• Temporary or retrofit installations that may require later removal or adjustment
• Applications where welding, soldering or adhesive joining is undesirable or impractical

When it may not be suitable

This screw-clamp T-connector may not be suitable for systems that require leak-proof, pressure-rated welded or brazed joints, or where a certified permanent joint is mandated by regulations. It is also not appropriate if the pipe material, wall thickness or outer diameter falls outside the clamp's compatible range; in such cases a purpose-built fitting or professional assessment is recommended.

Key specifications

• Connection type: T-connector with screw clamping mechanism
• Intended use: branch connection for pipes or conduits
• Assembly method: mechanical screw tightening (reusable)
• Typical applications: repair, retrofit, extension and temporary installations
• Material compatibility: suitable for materials compatible with mechanical screw clamps (verify before installation)

How to use

Verify that the T-connector clamp is compatible with the pipe or conduit material and diameter. Position the clamp over the existing line at the desired branching point, align the branch outlet, and tighten the screw mechanism evenly according to manufacturer guidance until the clamp holds securely without deforming the pipe. After installation, check the joint for mechanical stability and, where applicable, perform a pressure or leak test following local codes and best practices. For removal, loosen the screw and separate the clamp components; the design allows reuse if undamaged.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm outer diameter and wall thickness of the pipe or conduit to ensure compatibility with a screw-clamp connector
• Determine whether a mechanical clamp meets required sealing and pressure ratings for your application
• Check material compatibility (e.g., metal, plastic) and corrosion considerations for the installation environment
• Assess whether a permanent welded or soldered fitting is required by regulation or system design

Usage recommendations

Install and tighten the screw clamp following the manufacturer's instructions and perform appropriate leak or pressure testing where relevant. Use the clamp for repairs, temporary branches, or retrofits when mechanical joining is acceptable, and replace with a certified permanent fitting if the application requires higher pressure rating or permanent sealing.
