Philmac Joiner 3g Metric Coupling 40mm x 40mm at a glance

Philmac 3G Metric Joiner PE x PE, 40mm x 40mm, for joining two metric PE pipes of the same size. Philmac 3G Metric is a complete range of mechanical fittings designed to make connections simple when joining metric PE pipes.

Fast and easy installation

Slide & Tighten technology:
3G Metric incorporates all the benefits of Philmac's unique Slide & Tighten technology.
No pipe preparation is needed and no force is required to push the pipe past the seal.
Simply insert the pipe into the fitting until the stop is felt, and then tighten the nut.
Assembly is so easy you can even do it under live conditions.
No special tools are required, and there is no need to disassemble the fitting before use because the 3G Metric compression fitting is supplied pre-assembled and ready to use.

Compact design:
The size of the new Philmac 3G Metric compression fitting has been kept to a minimum, making the fitting ideal to use in confined areas.
In addition to making connections with minimal turns of the nut, the design and size of the fitting means that in installations taking place between two fixed points, the manipulation of the pipe into the fitting becomes easy.

Easy disassembly:
The fitting has been designed so the collet is released as soon as the nut is backed off, making disassembly easy.

Complete security

Dynamic sealing method:
The mechanical advantage of the nut thread compresses the seal into position.

Visual stop:
The flange on the body of Philmac's 3G Metric compression fitting provides a visual stop to indicate when the nut is fully tightened.

No loose components:
If the nut is removed there is no danger of losing components, as the collet and seal are retained in the body of the fitting.
Losing components in the trench becomes a thing of the past.

Designed to minimise pipe twist:
The fitting has been designed to minimise pipe twist as the nut is tightened.
Maximum pipe twist is approximately a quarter turn compared to one and a half turns with many other fittings.
Pipe twist can impact on not only the connection you have just made but also on the connection at the other end of the line.

High performance

Made from advanced thermoplastic materials:
3G Metric is manufactured from lightweight high performance thermoplastic materials with outstanding impact, UV, chemical and corrosion resistance.
The material is non-toxic and taint-free.

Rated to 1600 kpa:
3G Metric is pressure rated to 1600 kpa (PN16) to meet the needs of high pressure systems.

50 year+ design life:
Built to withstand the toughest conditions to ensure longevity and durability, 3G Metric has a 50 year+ design life.

Philmac 3G Metric is WaterMark approved and has WSAA appraisal. Australian Made.

This Philmac 3G Metric joiner connects two metric PE pipes of the same size (40mm x 40mm). Cut the PE pipe cleanly and square using an appropriate pipe cutter. No chamfering or lubrication is required. Ensure the fitting is pre-assembled and the nut is loosened until two threads are visible. Push the PE pipe straight into the fitting until the internal pipe stop is reached. Hand-tighten the nut, then finish with an appropriate spanner where required. Tighten until the nut meets the fitting body flange. For fittings from 32mm to 63mm, a wrench or multi-grips may be required to tighten the nut to the flange.
