SANHA Purapress transitional nipple ZW x GZ 15 mm x 1/2" (182431512)

SANHA Purapress transitional nipple ZW x GZ 15 mm x 1/2" is a compact connector designed to join press-fit piping to a male threaded fitting. The part provides a female press end (ZW) for integration with compatible metal press systems and a male thread (GZ) to accept standard 1/2" threaded components. It is intended for potable water, heating and sanitary systems where a durable, leak-resistant transition between press and threaded connections is needed.

Advantages

The transitional nipple offers reliable mechanical strength and a secure press connection that reduces the need for soldering or welding. Its mixed-end design simplifies installation between press-fit pipelines and threaded fixtures, saving time on site. The compact form factor minimizes space requirements in confined installations while maintaining a watertight joint suitable for drinking water and heating circuits.

Suitable for

• Joining press-fit metal piping to 1/2" male threaded valves, taps or components
• Domestic potable water installations and sanitary fittings
• Heating circuits and radiator connection points requiring a threaded interface
• Tight or confined installation spaces where a compact transition fitting is needed

Key specifications

• Connection type: female press end to male threaded end
• Press end nominal size: 15 mm
• Thread size: 1/2" male thread
• Material: compatible with metal press systems (stainless or copper-based press fittings as per system requirements)
• Application: potable water, heating and sanitary systems

How to use

Prepare the press-fit pipe by cutting squarely and deburring the end. Insert the pipe into the female press socket until it seats fully. Position the press tool and select the correct jaw for a 15 mm press connection; perform the press according to the press tool manufacturer's instructions to achieve a secure, approved joint. Apply standard thread sealant or tape to the 1/2" male thread as required before connecting the threaded component, and tighten to the appropriate torque for the installed fitting.

Usage recommendations

Use only with compatible metal press systems and approved press tools; follow system-specific installation guidelines and local plumbing standards. Inspect press jaws and tool calibration regularly and test the assembled system for leaks before commissioning.
