Sales boost for Conex Bänninger thanks to technical team’s testing regime

Conex Bänninger has opened-up the domestic market for its >B< Press copper fittings (15mm-28mm) after undertaking an extensive testing programme leading to approval for use with M profile jaws.

Tom Mason, marketing manager – UK & Ireland commented: “This was a significant market breakthrough as it meant that plumbing and heating installers could access our products without further expense. Up until then, fittings falling within this size category were recommended to be installed ‘in-situ’ with only a B or V profile jaw. However, stringent testing by our technical team revealed a good seal could be achieved using an M profile and we unveiled this at Installer Live in June last year.”

>B< Press fittings are compatible with a range of press tools and jaws. Check out our technical brochure link: https://bit.ly/3Y7wbyD. Tool and jaw chart: https://bit.ly/41wJ73W. Tube chart here: https://bit.ly/3mbfeGb

Typical domestic installations for >B< Press copper fittings include work on boilers, bathrooms and kitchens. No hot works permit is required (flame-free) thus lowering the insurance risk and premiums.

>B< Press fittings are available in copper and copper alloy and are quick and easy to install thereby reducing installation time and cost. An innovative 3-point press system (up to 54mm) ensures a secure, permanent leak-free joint suitable for multiple applications.

Within its innovative design is an unpressed joint indicator that assists in identifying unpressed joints. If any joint has been missed, it provides installers with a ‘safety-net’, whilst minimising the possibility of fault joints the end-user.

Compatible with a range of press tools and jaws, >B< Press fittings are suitable for multiple applications including: drinking water, hot water heaters, local and district heating, chilled and cooling water and rainwater.
