Reducing press-fit tee Comap MultiSkin PPSU 26x16x26 (model 9130RW261626)

Reducing press-fit tee Comap MultiSkin PPSU 26x16x26 is a press-fit branch fitting made from PPSU material, designed to connect a 26 mm main run with a 16 mm branch in plumbing and heating installations. The fitting provides a compact solution for transitions in pipe diameter while maintaining mechanically secure press connections compatible with MultiSkin pipe systems. Its geometry and material selection aim to support long-term service in residential and commercial systems where durable, leak-resistant joints are required.

Advantages

The PPSU construction offers high mechanical strength, good chemical resistance and dimensional stability across a range of temperatures. Press-fit ends deliver a consistent, mechanical joint without the need for adhesives or welding, reducing installation time. The reducing tee design enables a smooth transition between pipe sizes while preserving flow integrity and minimizing pressure losses at the branch point. The fitting is suitable for repeated system layouts and integrates with MultiSkin-compatible components.

Suitable for

• Creating a reduced-diameter branch from 26 mm to 16 mm in potable water systems
• Branching in underfloor heating and radiator circuits where MultiSkin systems are used
• Plumbing installations in residential and light commercial buildings requiring press-fit connections

Key specifications

• Material: PPSU (polyphenylsulfone) for strength and thermal stability
• Connection type: press-fit ends designed for mechanical pressing tools
• Dimensions: main run 26 mm, branch 16 mm, opposite run 26 mm
• Application: potable water and heating systems compatible with MultiSkin piping
• Operating temperature range: suitable for typical domestic hot and cold water and heating temperatures (refer to system specifications)

How to use

Prepare pipe ends by cutting square and de-burring, then insert into the press-fit fitting until the correct insertion depth is reached. Use the appropriate Comap or compatible press tool and jaws specified for MultiSkin press-fit fittings to make the mechanical joint. Verify the pressed connection visually and, if required, perform pressure testing in accordance with project standards and local regulations. Ensure compatible MultiSkin pipes and accessories are used to maintain system integrity.

Usage recommendations

Follow manufacturer guidelines for press tools, jaw selection and insertion depths. Avoid exposing the fitting to chemicals or conditions outside the rated limits for PPSU. For installations carrying potable water or heating fluids, flush and pressure-test the system after assembly and before commissioning.
