TDM Brass 105M 1240 Threaded Extension, Male to Male, 1/2 inch x 40 mm

The TDM Brass 105M 1240 is a high-quality threaded extension designed for plumbing and heating systems. This component features a male-to-male connection with a 1/2 inch diameter and a length of 40 mm, providing a reliable and durable solution for extending pipe connections in various hydraulic networks. Crafted from robust brass, it ensures long-term performance and resistance to corrosion in demanding environments.

Advantages

The primary advantage of this brass extension is its high-grade material construction, which offers excellent durability and resistance to thermal expansion and pressure changes. Its precise threading ensures a secure and leak-proof connection, reducing the risk of failures in water supply or central heating systems. The standard dimensions make it highly compatible with a wide range of plumbing fixtures and piping components, facilitating efficient installation and maintenance.

Suitable for

• Extending pipe connections in water supply systems
• Connecting components in central heating networks
• Adapting plumbing lines where additional length is required
• Professional hydraulic installations

This extension may not be suitable for high-pressure industrial steam systems or applications involving highly corrosive chemical media that could degrade brass over time. It is also not intended for use in gas piping systems unless specifically certified for such purposes.

Key specifications

• Material: Brass
• Connection type: Male to Male
• Thread size: 1/2 inch
• Length: 40 mm

To use this threaded extension, ensure that the pipe ends are clean and free of debris. Apply appropriate thread sealant, such as PTFE tape or liquid sealant, to the male threads to ensure a watertight seal. Screw the extension into the corresponding female fittings using a suitable wrench, tightening carefully to avoid over-torquing, which could damage the threads or the fitting itself.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the thread size of your existing pipes to ensure compatibility with the 1/2 inch connection
• Check the required length to ensure 40 mm is sufficient for your specific installation needs
• Ensure the material is compatible with the fluid type and temperature range of your system

For optimal performance and longevity, it is recommended to inspect the connection for leaks after initial pressurization of the system. Avoid using excessive force during installation to maintain the integrity of the brass threads.
