Conex press gas reducer nipple 28x22 mm, brass press fitting, model PG52430282200

Conex press gas reducer nipple 28x22 mm is a brass press fitting designed to reduce pipe diameter from 28 mm to 22 mm in gas distribution systems. Manufactured for use with compatible press tools, this fitting creates a permanent, vibration-resistant joint suitable for domestic and light commercial gas pipework. It is intended for connection of copper or compatible metal pipes where a reliable reduction in bore is required without threaded transitions.

Advantages

This brass press reducer nipple delivers a compact and robust transition between two pipe sizes, offering the speed of press installation while avoiding the need for soldering or threaded connections. The press joint provides consistent mechanical strength and long-term sealing performance, reduces installation time, and supports vibration resistance in running gas lines. Its smooth internal profile minimises flow disturbance where pipe diameter changes.

Suitable for

• Reducing gas pipe diameter from 28 mm to 22 mm in domestic installations
• Connections between copper or compatible metal gas pipes
• Residential and light commercial gas distribution systems
• Installations where press-tool assembly is preferred over soldering or threading

Key specifications

• Material: brass
• Connection type: press fitting for use with press tools
• Inlet diameter: 28 mm
• Outlet diameter: 22 mm
• Application: gas distribution piping
• Joint characteristics: permanent, vibration-resistant press connection

How to use

Select the correct press tool and jaw size for 28 mm and 22 mm connections, prepare pipe ends by deburring and cleaning to the recommended depth, and insert the pipe fully into the fitting until the stop. Position the press jaw centrally over the fitting’s press sleeve and actuate the tool according to the tool manufacturer’s instructions until the press cycle is complete. Verify the pressed joint visually and, where required by local regulations, perform a leak test before commissioning the gas system.

Usage recommendations

Use only approved press tools and compatible jaws or rings sized for 28 mm and 22 mm copper or compatible pipes. Adhere to local gas installation codes and test procedures. Do not use the fitting for applications other than gas unless explicitly permitted by relevant standards.
