Female Straight 35mm - 1"

The EXF9-S35x1F press fitting is a plumbing component designed to create a secure, leak-proof connection between 35mm pipes and 1-inch male-threaded components. It is part of the EXF9 range of press-fit fittings, which use modern press-fit technology to simplify installations, ensuring a quick, efficient, and durable connection without the need for soldering, heating, or additional sealing materials.

Key Features and Description:

1. Material:

   • The EXF9-S35x1F press fitting is typically manufactured from brass or stainless steel, both of which are highly durable materials commonly used in plumbing and heating systems. These materials are chosen for their strength, resistance to corrosion, and ability to withstand high temperatures and pressure in plumbing applications.
   • Brass and stainless steel are resistant to corrosion from water, heat, and chemicals, ensuring long-term reliability even in challenging environments.

2. Size and Configuration:

   • S35 refers to the 35mm pipe connection side of the fitting. This side is designed to securely accommodate 35mm pipes, which are often used in medium to large heating, water supply, and industrial plumbing systems.
   • 1F refers to the 1-inch female-threaded connection on the other side of the fitting. The female-threaded side allows for a connection to 1-inch male-threaded components, such as valves, pumps, manifolds, or other parts of the system that require a male thread of 1-inch size.

3. Press-Fit Technology:

   • The press-fit method is the primary feature of this fitting. Press-fit technology involves using a press tool to apply pressure and crimp the fitting securely onto the pipe, creating a permanent and leak-proof seal.
   • This installation method does not require any heat, soldering, or additional sealing materials like PTFE tape, making it quicker, safer, and cleaner than traditional plumbing methods.

4. Applications:

   • The EXF9-S35x1F press fitting is ideal for connecting 35mm pipes to 1-inch male-threaded components. Its typical uses include:
     • Underfloor Heating (UFH): Connecting 35mm pipes to components such as 1-inch male-threaded manifolds, valves, or pumps.
     • Central Heating Systems: For use in larger heating systems, where 35mm pipes are used to connect to 1-inch male-threaded components like radiator valves, thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs), or control valves.
     • Domestic and Commercial Plumbing: Used in plumbing systems that require a robust connection between 35mm pipes and 1-inch male-threaded components, such as water distribution systems, valves, and industrial components.
   • It is well-suited for medium to large systems requiring higher flow rates or larger pipe diameters.

5. Advantages:

   • Fast and Simple Installation: The press-fit technology reduces installation time by eliminating the need for heat, solder, or sealing compounds. This makes it a highly efficient solution for professional installers, especially in situations where speed is important.
   • Leak-Proof and Reliable: Once pressed onto the pipe, the fitting forms a tight, permanent seal that prevents leaks. The connection remains secure even under pressure and temperature fluctuations, reducing the likelihood of system failure.
   • Corrosion Resistance: Made from corrosion-resistant materials like brass or stainless steel, the fitting is built to last even in systems exposed to water, heat, and chemicals.
   • Cleaner and Safer: The installation process is much safer than traditional methods, as there is no need for open flames or soldering, reducing the risk of accidents or fire hazards.

6. Compatibility:

   • The EXF9-S35x1F press fitting is compatible with a variety of pipe materials, including copper, PEX, and multilayer pipes, making it a versatile choice for different types of plumbing systems.
   • It is specifically designed to work with 1-inch male-threaded components, such as valves, manifolds, pumps, and other fittings, making it ideal for systems that require larger components or high-flow connections.
