KAN-therm press fitting adapter 22 mm x R3/4" (male thread) model 6240135

The KAN-therm press fitting adapter 22 mm x R3/4" (male thread) model 6240135 is a transition fitting that combines a steel press end for 22 mm piping with a male R3/4" threaded outlet. It is designed to connect copper or steel press systems to R3/4" threaded components in potable water, heating and general plumbing installations. The fitting provides a press-sealed connection on the 22 mm side and a standard male threaded connection on the R3/4" side, allowing secure mating with valves, faucets or other threaded fixtures.

Advantages

This KAN-therm adapter ensures a reliable mechanical press joint on 22 mm piping while maintaining compatibility with standard R3/4" threaded fittings. The steel press end delivers consistent sealing performance when installed with appropriate press tools and jaws, and the male thread permits straightforward assembly with threaded components without the need for soldering. The design reduces installation time and provides a durable transition between press piping and threaded fixtures.

Suitable for

• Connecting 22 mm copper or steel press piping to R3/4" threaded valves and taps
• Potable water distribution systems
• Heating system pipework and radiator connections
• Plumbing repairs and retrofits where a press-to-thread transition is needed

Key specifications

• Connection A: 22 mm steel press end compatible with press-fitting systems
• Connection B: male R3/4" (standard pipe thread)
• Material: steel on press end with threaded metal outlet (as specified by manufacturer)
• Application media: potable water and heating fluids
• Installation method: press-fit on 22 mm side; threaded assembly on R3/4" side

How to use

Prepare the 22 mm pipe by cutting it squarely and deburring the inner and outer edges. Insert the pipe fully into the steel press end until it reaches the internal stop. Position the press jaw correctly around the fitting and perform the press operation according to the press tool manufacturer’s instructions to form a sealed joint. On the R3/4" side, apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male thread if required by the installation practice, then tighten the fitting into the mating female threaded component to the recommended torque for the connected fixture.

Usage recommendations

Use certified press tools and the correct jaw profile for 22 mm steel press fittings to ensure a proper seal. Verify compatibility with the system fluid and local plumbing codes. When assembling threaded connections, use suitable thread sealant and avoid over-tightening to prevent damage to the threads.
