PERLA Male Adaptor 40mm x 1 inch Blue

The PERLA male adaptor 40mm x 1 inch is a robust plumbing component engineered for reliable and secure connections in fluid distribution systems. Constructed from high-quality polypropylene, this fitting is designed to withstand demanding environments while maintaining structural integrity. Its precise dimensions and durable build make it a dependable choice for both professional plumbing installations and irrigation infrastructure.

Advantages

This male adaptor offers exceptional resistance to pressure, supporting up to 16 Bar, which ensures consistent performance in various hydraulic applications. The use of high-grade polypropylene provides excellent chemical resistance and longevity, preventing corrosion and degradation over time. Its design facilitates a straightforward installation process, allowing for efficient assembly without the need for specialized tools, thereby saving time on site.

Suitable for

• Irrigation systems for agriculture and gardening
• Water supply networks and fluid distribution
• Industrial piping infrastructure
• Connecting polyethylene pipes to threaded components

When it may not be suitable

This fitting is not intended for use in high-temperature steam systems or applications involving aggressive chemicals that are incompatible with polypropylene. It should not be used in systems where the operating pressure consistently exceeds the rated 16 Bar limit.

Key specifications

• Diameter: 40 mm
• Connection type: 1 inch male thread
• Material: Polypropylene
• Maximum pressure: 16 Bar
• Colour: Blue and black

How to use

To install the PERLA male adaptor, ensure the pipe end is cut cleanly and deburred. Insert the pipe into the fitting until it reaches the internal stop. Tighten the nut securely to ensure a watertight seal. For the threaded side, apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male thread before screwing it into the corresponding female component to prevent leaks.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the 40mm pipe diameter matches your existing system requirements.
• Ensure the 1-inch male thread is compatible with your female connection point.
• Check that the system operating pressure does not exceed 16 Bar.
• Confirm compatibility of polypropylene with the fluids being transported.

Usage recommendations

Always ensure that the pipe is fully inserted into the fitting and that the threads are properly aligned before tightening to avoid cross-threading and ensure a long-lasting, leak-free connection.
