Copper press coupling SANHA Press Gas 28 mm, model 11027028

SANHA Copper Press Gas coupling 28 mm (model 11027028) is a press-fit connector specifically engineered for gas installations using 28 mm copper tubing. Manufactured from copper, the coupling is intended to create a durable mechanical joint that achieves gas-tight performance when compressed with compatible press tools and jaws. It is designed for installation in domestic and commercial natural gas and LPG pipelines, offering a straightforward joining method for repairs, extensions, or new pipework where press technology and copper material are required.

Advantages

The copper construction provides corrosion resistance and good thermal conductivity while maintaining dimensional stability for a secure fit. The press-fit design enables fast installation without soldering, open flames, or flux, reducing on-site safety risks and saving time. When installed with the proper certified press tool and jaw for gas applications, the coupling forms a consistent, repeatable, and leak-tight connection suitable for regulated gas systems. Its compact form factor allows use in confined spaces and behind fittings where traditional brazing might be difficult.

Suitable for

• Natural gas pipeline installations using 28 mm copper tube
• LPG distribution and service lines with copper tubing
• Repairs and section replacements in domestic and commercial gas systems
• New-build gas pipework where press-fit joints are preferred over brazing

Key specifications

• Material: Copper
• Connection method: Press-fit
• Nominal pipe size: 28 mm
• Application: Gas installations (natural gas, LPG)
• Suitability: Compatible with gas-rated press tools and jaws

How to use

Ensure the copper tubing is cut squarely and deburred, then check that the outer surface is clean and free of damage. Slide the SANHA press coupling onto the prepared 28 mm tube until it seats fully. Position the appropriate gas-rated press jaw over the coupling at the manufacturer’s recommended location. Operate the certified press tool according to its instructions to make the press operation. After pressing, verify the integrity of the joint visually and by using approved leak detection methods before placing the system into service.

Usage recommendations

Use only press tools, jaws, and accessories that are certified for gas applications and compatible with 28 mm copper fittings. Follow applicable local codes and standards for gas installations, perform pressure testing and leak checks as required, and avoid reusing a coupling after it has been pressed.
