KAN-therm pipe reducer 40×20 mm polypropylene (PP) model 04108040

The KAN-therm pipe reducer 40×20 mm polypropylene (PP) model 04108040 is a compact fitting designed to connect a 40 mm PP pipe to a 20 mm PP pipe in potable water, heating and general fluid distribution systems. Made of polypropylene, the reducer provides a smooth transition between different pipe diameters and is intended for use with compatible KAN-therm PP piping and fittings to form a sealed mechanical connection when installed according to manufacturer guidelines.

Advantages

The polypropylene construction offers chemical resistance, low weight and corrosion-free performance in contact with potable water and heating fluids. Its molded profile ensures consistent internal flow characteristics and reduced turbulence at the diameter change. The reducer is compatible with standard PP joining methods used in KAN-therm systems, enabling reliable sealing and long service life when installed correctly.

Suitable for

• Transitioning between 40 mm and 20 mm PP pipes in plumbing installations
• Domestic and commercial heating circuit connections using PP piping
• Potable water distribution where PP systems are specified
• System repairs or modifications that require diameter reduction in PP networks

Key specifications

• Material: polypropylene (PP)
• Connection sizes: 40 mm to 20 mm pipe transition
• Application: potable water, heating circuits, general fluid distribution
• Design: molded reducer for use with compatible PP fittings and joining methods

How to use

Prepare pipe ends by cutting square and deburring to ensure proper fit. Follow KAN-therm recommended joining method for PP fittings—align the reducer and pipes, then make the connection using the specified mechanical or thermal joining technique for the system in use. Verify alignment and allow any required cooling or curing time before applying system pressure. Inspect the joint visually and, if applicable, perform a pressure test according to local codes and project specifications.

Usage recommendations

Use this reducer only within its intended temperature and pressure ranges as defined by KAN-therm for PP piping systems. Store components protected from direct sunlight and prolonged exposure to aggressive chemicals. When replacing or modifying existing installations, confirm material compatibility and follow local regulations for potable water and heating systems.
