Compression Reducing Coupling Herz P703206 32 x 26 mm

Herz compression reducing coupling 32 x 26 mm is a press-fit metal connector designed to join two pipes of different diameters with a secure, permanent connection. Intended for plumbing, heating and industrial applications, this reducing coupling creates a compact joint that maintains flow continuity while adapting pipe size transitions. The product is compatible with standard metal press tools and is suitable for use in potable water and heating circuits when installed according to applicable codes and using recommended press fittings.

Advantages

The reducing coupling delivers a reliable, leak-resistant metal joint that eliminates the need for soldering or threaded adapters. Its press-fit design reduces installation time and provides consistent mechanical strength across the connection. Constructed for long-term service in plumbing and heating systems, the coupling supports potable water and heating media while maintaining pressure integrity when pressed correctly.

Suitable for

• Connecting 32 mm to 26 mm metal pipes in domestic and commercial plumbing
• Reducing pipe diameter in heating circuits and radiators
• Industrial piping where compact, permanent press fittings are required

Key specifications

• Type: Compression reducing coupling (press-fit)
• Material: Metal press fitting compatible with standard press tools
• Connection sizes: 32 mm to 26 mm
• Application: Potable water, heating systems, industrial piping
• Joint type: Permanent press joint providing leak resistance

How to use

Prepare pipe ends by cutting square and deburring to ensure proper fit. Insert each pipe into the respective end of the coupling until fully seated. Use the correct press tool and jaw for the specified diameters to make the pressing operation; follow the press tool manufacturer’s instructions for pressure and cycle. After pressing, verify the joint visually and, where required, perform pressure testing in accordance with local regulations. Do not reuse the coupling after pressing.

Usage recommendations

Select press jaws and tooling sized for 32 mm and 26 mm connections and ensure the press tool is calibrated. Use fittings and installation practices compliant with local plumbing and heating standards. For potable water and heating systems, follow applicable codes, flushing, and commissioning procedures before putting the system into service.
