Conex PRESS GAS LUK 90 2-K 18/150 is a gas pipe press fitting engineered for creating sealed, mechanically reliable press joints in gas installations. The fitting is designed for use with compatible press tools and jaws, providing a standardized solution for right-angle connections in gas distribution and appliance supply lines. Its construction and dimensions suit professional plumbing and gaswork applications that demand durable, leak-tight press connections.

Advantages

The fitting provides a consistent, reproducible press connection that reduces dependence on heat or soldering during installation. Its design supports a compact right-angle change of direction, allowing neat routing of gas pipes in confined or appliance-adjacent spaces. The press connection method offers time savings on site and enhances safety by producing a defined mechanical joint that is simple to inspect using standard press verification tools.

Suitable for

• Gas distribution lines in residential and commercial buildings
• Connections to gas appliances such as boilers, cookers, and heaters
• Situations requiring right-angle (90°) press fittings with sealed joints

Key specifications

• Angle: 90° elbow fitting suitable for directional change
• Connection method: press-type joint compatible with industry-standard press tools
• Nominal pipe size: designed for 18 mm gas pipe systems
• Material characteristics: metal fitting constructed for gas service (compatible with approved gas piping materials)
• Application: intended for use in sealed gas installations with appropriate certification and installer competence

How to use

Install the fitting by preparing the pipe ends to the correct length, ensuring they are deburred and clean. Slide the fitting into the pipe until the correct insertion depth is reached, then position the press tool and jaws around the fitting’s press sleeve. Perform the press operation following the press tool manufacturer’s instructions to achieve a complete, uniform crimp. After pressing, verify the joint visually and, where required by regulations, perform an appropriate leak test on the gas installation before commissioning.

Usage recommendations

Use only press tools and jaws that are approved for gas press fittings and compatible with the fitting profile. Installations should be carried out by qualified personnel and tested according to applicable local gas safety regulations. Avoid exposing the fitting to corrosive environments without suitable protective measures, and reference manufacturer guidance for storage and handling to maintain product integrity.
