Perfexim compression elbow 734 20 mm x G1/2" for plumbing connections

Perfexim compression elbow 734 20 mm x G1/2" is a right-angle plumbing fitting designed to connect 20 mm copper or plastic tubing to a G1/2" female threaded fixture. The fitting provides a mechanical compression seal without soldering, enabling direct connection to valves, radiators, taps or other G1/2" threaded components in domestic and light commercial water systems. Its compact elbow shape saves space and allows a tidy change of flow direction where a threaded connection is required.

Advantages

The compression elbow forms a reliable, leak-resistant joint using a compression ring and nut, eliminating the need for heat or adhesive during installation. Its right-angle design reduces strain on piping runs and helps achieve a neat installation in confined spaces. The fitting is suitable for use with common 20 mm pipelines and standard G1/2" threaded fixtures, making it a versatile component for repairs and retrofits.

Suitable for

• Connecting 20 mm supply pipes to G1/2" threaded taps and valves
• Radiator and heating appliance connections with G1/2" inlets
• Domestic water supply and repair work in kitchens and bathrooms
• Light commercial plumbing where a mechanical compression joint is preferred

Key specifications

• Connection A: 20 mm compression for copper or compatible plastic pipe
• Connection B: G1/2" female threaded inlet
• Form: 90° elbow (right-angle)
• Joint type: mechanical compression with nut and ferrule
• Typical application medium: cold and hot potable water (follow local regulations)

How to use

Prepare the 20 mm pipe by cutting squarely and deburring the end. Slide the compression nut and ferrule onto the pipe, insert the pipe into the compression socket fully, and hand-tighten the nut. Using appropriate wrenches, tighten the nut until the ferrule compresses and forms a sealed joint; avoid over-tightening. Thread the G1/2" female side onto the mating male thread of the fixture, applying suitable sealing method on the threaded connection if required by the installation (for example, approved tape or sealant). Perform a pressure check after installation to confirm there are no leaks.

Usage recommendations

Use with correctly sized 20 mm pipe and ensure ferrule compatibility with the pipe material. Do not use the fitting on damaged threads or severely corroded mating surfaces. For installations carrying hot potable water, verify material suitability and temperature ratings according to local codes. If in doubt, consult a licensed plumber.
