Grant Solar 15mm Connector Flex Pipe Compression Fitting (DN16) (2pc)

The Grant Solar 15mm Connector Flex Pipe Compression Fitting (DN16) is a two-piece fitting pack intended for specified solar thermal pipework connections. Its job is to join compatible flexible solar pipe and 15mm connections within a system designed for solar thermal temperatures and pressures. This is a specialist part, rather than an everyday domestic plumbing compression fitting.

Compression connectors for a compatible DN16 solar thermal pipe

The product title specifies a 15mm connection, DN16 pipe reference and two pieces. DN16 describes the associated flexible pipe system; do not assume that every product marketed as DN16 or 15mm will match the same connector geometry. Confirm the part number and the relevant Grant solar pipework documentation before ordering.

How to choose the right product

Start with the solar thermal collector and pump-station specification, then identify the exact pipe diameter, connection arrangement and sealing system required. Check whether the pipe ends need specific preparation or a compatible insert. Temperature-rated seals and correctly matched fittings matter when solar circuits reach elevated working temperatures.

Installation and project considerations

Solar thermal pipework should be isolated and allowed to cool before maintenance. Follow the manufacturer’s tightening requirements and approved joining method; overtightening or incompatible components can lead to leaks. The system should be filled, tested and commissioned by an appropriately competent installer using the specified solar thermal fluid and pressure-testing procedure.

Can these be used on ordinary copper pipe?

Only where the selected compression fitting and pipe are explicitly compatible. Verify the product specification first.

Are these intended for solar hot water systems?

Can I reuse a compression fitting?

Follow the manufacturer's instructions on replacement seals, rings and reuse rather than assuming previously compressed components can be refitted safely.

Roof Tiles & Fittings:

We recommend ordering an additional 10% of roof tiles to allow for any breakages that may occur during delivery or handling. Roof tiles are naturally fragile, and having a few extra on site helps prevent delays and ensures your roofing project can be completed without interruption.
