Water connection PREMA 1/2" to 8 mm, model 80.0050.01.1208

PREMA water connection adapter with a 1/2" threaded inlet and an 8 mm outlet diameter, model 80.0050.01.1208, is designed to join standard 1/2" plumbing fittings to 8 mm water tubing. The compact adapter provides a direct transition between different pipe sizes and is suitable for use in household and light commercial water installations where a reliable connection between larger threaded fittings and small-diameter lines is required. The product is intended for cold and warm water supply lines where a simple, space-saving fitting is needed.

Advantages

The adapter offers a compact footprint that allows installation in confined spaces and reduces the need for additional fittings. It provides a secure mechanical transition between a standard 1/2" threaded connection and an 8 mm tube, simplifying installation of appliances, supply lines, and custom plumbing runs. The design enables straightforward assembly and maintenance without complex tools when used with compatible fittings and tubing.

Suitable for

• Connecting 1/2" threaded valves, taps or fittings to 8 mm water tubing
• Appliance supply lines for small household devices
• Repairs and modifications of domestic water distribution systems
• Light commercial plumbing where a transition to small-diameter lines is needed

Key specifications

• Inlet thread: standard 1/2" plumbing thread
• Outlet diameter: 8 mm
• Application: water supply connections (cold and warm water)
• Form factor: compact inline adapter for pipe size transition
• Material: suitable for potable water systems (refer to packaging for exact composition)

How to use

Ensure water supply is turned off and the system is depressurized before installation. Thread the 1/2" inlet into the matching threaded fitting or valve using appropriate thread sealant or tape if required by the installation standards. Insert and secure the 8 mm tubing into the outlet according to the tubing type and connection method—push-fit, compression sleeve, or clamp—used in the system. Verify the connection is tight, restore water supply and check for leaks. If necessary, retighten connections or reseal threads following standard plumbing practice.

Usage recommendations

Use the adapter only with compatible 1/2" threaded fittings and 8 mm tubing rated for the intended water pressure and temperature. Follow local plumbing codes and manufacturer instructions for sealing threads and securing tubing. Inspect connections after initial pressurization and periodically during use.
