KAN-therm elbow 90° with press-fit ring, female thread 1", 25 mm (K-080172)

KAN-therm elbow 90° with press-fit ring, female thread 1", 25 mm (K-080172) is a right-angle fitting designed to join a 25 mm pipe to a component with a 1" internal thread. The fitting features a press-fit connection supported by a supplied sealing ring and a female threaded outlet, providing a compact solution for direction changes in domestic and commercial plumbing and heating systems. It is manufactured to be compatible with PEX and metal-composite pipe systems used in potable water and heating circuits.

Advantages

The fitting combines a secure press-fit joint and a threaded interface in one compact unit, reducing the need for additional adapters. The supplied press-fit ring ensures a reliable seal when installed with appropriate pressing tools, while the female thread provides straightforward connection to standard 1" threaded valves or components. Its 90° geometry helps conserve installation space and allows clean routing of pipework in tight areas.

Suitable for

• Connecting 25 mm PEX or metal-composite pipes to components with a 1" internal thread
• Compact changes of direction in potable water distribution
• Heating system connections to valves, manifolds, and equipment with female threads

Key specifications

• Connection type: press-fit on 25 mm pipe and female threaded outlet 1"
• Angle: 90° elbow
• Sealing: supplied press-fit sealing ring for press joint
• Compatible pipe types: PEX and metal-composite pipes with 25 mm outer diameter
• Typical applications: potable water and heating installations

How to use

Prepare the 25 mm pipe by cutting it square, deburring, and ensuring the outer surface is clean and free of damage. Slide the supplied press-fit ring onto the pipe, insert the pipe fully into the press connection of the elbow until it seats against the internal stop, and perform the press operation using a compatible pressing tool and jaw sized for 25 mm fittings. After pressing, screw the component with a 1" external thread into the female outlet and tighten to the manufacturer’s recommended torque, using appropriate thread sealant if required by the connected device. Verify the pressed joint and threaded connection for correct assembly before putting the system into service.

Usage recommendations

Use certified pressing tools and jaws matched to the fitting size to ensure a secure press-fit joint. Follow local installation standards and the pipe manufacturer’s instructions for pipe preparation and system commissioning. Inspect threaded connections for compatibility and apply suitable thread sealing where the connected component requires it.
