Brass extension fitting FERRO P40Z 1/2" (40 mm) for plumbing connections

FERRO P40Z is a brass extension fitting with a 1/2" thread and a 40 mm length, intended for plumbing connections that require a short spacer. Manufactured from solid brass, the fitting is designed for use in water supply systems, radiator installations and valve connections where reliable corrosion resistance and mechanical stability are needed.

Advantages

The brass construction provides good resistance to corrosion and long-term dimensional stability under normal domestic and commercial water supply conditions. The 1/2" threaded connection is compatible with standard plumbing fittings, and the 40 mm extension length allows precise spacing between pipes, valves or radiators. The compact, solid design simplifies installation and reduces play between joined components.

Suitable for

• Extending connections on water supply pipes with a required 40 mm spacer
• Connecting radiators to existing fittings when additional length is needed
• Installing or replacing valves that require a short extension
• General plumbing repairs where a durable brass spacer is preferred

Key specifications

• Material: brass
• Connection size: 1/2" thread
• Extension length: 40 mm
• Application: water supply, radiator and valve connections
• Design: solid, single-piece extension fitting

How to use

Ensure mating threads and sealing surfaces are clean and free of debris. Apply appropriate joint sealant or tape if required by the installation practice, then screw the extension fitting into the mating component by hand until seated. Use a suitable wrench to tighten to the torque recommended for 1/2" brass fittings, avoiding over-tightening to prevent thread damage. Verify alignment and secure connected piping or fixtures. After installation, check for leaks under normal operating pressure.

Usage recommendations

Use with potable water systems in accordance with local plumbing codes. Avoid exposure to aggressive chemicals that can attack brass alloys. For installations in concealed or load-bearing applications, confirm that the fitting and its joints meet the mechanical and safety requirements of the project.
