PERLA Female Adaptor 25mm x 1/2 inch Blue

The PERLA female adaptor, measuring 25mm x 1/2 inch, is a professional-grade plumbing component engineered for creating secure and leak-proof transitions between polyethylene pipes and threaded fittings. Constructed from high-quality polypropylene, this adaptor is designed to withstand the rigors of demanding water supply systems while maintaining structural integrity over time. Its robust design and precise threading ensure a reliable connection that is essential for both residential and commercial plumbing infrastructure.

Advantages

This adaptor offers exceptional resistance to chemical corrosion and environmental stress, making it a dependable choice for various fluid transport applications. The use of durable polypropylene ensures that the fitting remains lightweight yet incredibly strong, capable of handling operating pressures up to 16 Bar. Its intuitive design facilitates a straightforward installation process, reducing labor time and the need for specialized tools, while the high-quality internal threading provides a tight seal that minimizes the risk of leaks in pressurized systems.

Suitable for

• Connecting 25mm polyethylene pipes to 1/2 inch threaded components
• Residential water supply and irrigation systems
• Commercial plumbing installations
• Cold water distribution networks

When it may not be suitable

This fitting is not intended for use in high-temperature applications, such as hot water supply lines or steam systems, as polypropylene may lose its structural properties under extreme heat. It is also not suitable for systems transporting aggressive chemicals or gases that are incompatible with polypropylene materials.

Key specifications

• Diameter: 25 mm
• Connection type: 1/2 inch internal thread
• Material: Polypropylene
• Maximum pressure: 16 Bar
• Color: Blue and black

How to use

To install the PERLA female adaptor, ensure the pipe end is cut cleanly and deburred to prevent damage to the internal seals. Insert the 25mm pipe into the compression side of the fitting until it is fully seated. Tighten the nut securely to compress the internal gasket against the pipe surface. For the threaded side, apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male component before screwing it into the 1/2 inch internal thread of the adaptor. Hand-tighten the connection and apply a final turn with a wrench if necessary, taking care not to overtighten.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the outer diameter of your existing pipe matches the 25mm specification
• Ensure the threaded connection requires a 1/2 inch female interface
• Check that the system pressure does not exceed the 16 Bar limit
• Confirm compatibility of polypropylene with the intended fluid

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the connection points in your plumbing system for signs of moisture or pressure loss, especially after initial installation or during seasonal changes. Ensure that the pipe is properly supported to prevent mechanical stress on the fitting.
