PPR Brass Insert Coupler in Kenya

A PPR brass insert coupler gives a strong brass thread on a PPR line.

The brass insert handles tightening better than a plastic thread. In addition, it suits heaters, pumps and meters.

What is a PPR brass insert coupler?

A PPR coupler joins two PPR pipes, or links a PPR pipe to a threaded part. A plain coupler has two fusion sockets, while threaded couplers have a brass insert with a male or female thread.

Plain couplers extend and repair pipe runs. Threaded and brass insert couplers make the switch from plastic to metal at taps, valves, heaters and pumps.

Key terms explained

PPR: Polypropylene random copolymer, a plastic made for hot and cold water pipes. It joins by heat fusion.
Socket fusion: Heating the pipe end and fitting socket on a welding machine, then pushing them together so they fuse into one piece.
PN rating: The pressure class, such as PN16, PN20 or PN25. A higher PN has a thicker wall for hot water and higher pressure.
Outside diameter (OD): PPR is sized by outside diameter in mm, such as 20, 25, 32, 40, 50 and 63 mm.
Brass insert: A threaded brass part moulded into a PPR fitting, so it can connect to metal threads.
Male and female thread: A male thread is external. A female thread is internal.
