APOLLO VALVES Press Fit Fittings

Used in plumbing & heating systems to connect pipes or tubes easily without soldering or welding. Include hoses, unions, couplings, fittings reducers, flange adapters and more.

Apollo PowerPress Series gas male adapters are press systems designed for use with schedule 10 through 40 thick wall steel pipes in sizes ranging from 1/2 to 2 inches. They have a zinc-nickel coating to prevent corrosion and are equipped with either an EPDM or HNBR sealing element for waterproof operations. These adapters feature a patented & colour-coded visual control ring (VCR) for a clear indication when a connection has been properly pressed. These visual control rings let the user identify un-pressed connections and ensure that the pipes are optimally positioned during pressing. They are compatible with 10 and 40-thick wall steel pipes having black steel / galvanised steel / epoxy-coated steel construction in accordance with ASTM A53, A106, A135 and A795 standards. These male adapters have a maximum operating pressure of 230 psi and operate at temperatures ranging from -40 to 302 degrees F while using an EPDM sealing element. When using an HNBR sealing element, the maximum operating pressure is 150 psi and the operating temperature ranges from -40 to 194 degrees F.
