Pegler Yorkshire
Unrivalled quality, innovation,
customer service and long-term
value for money
As part of the global Aalberts Industries NV Group,
Pegler Yorkshire is one of Britains largest and most
respected manufacturers of innovative products for the
demanding and diverse plumbing and heating industries.
Pegler Yorkshire a unique story
The true value of knowledge
It was in the late 19th century when two

separate and altruistic companies set out on
the long road to satisfying the needs of
prospective customers and, of course, to
profit in the process. Coincidentally located
just 30 miles apart, each was driven by the
same vision and ideals of a no-compromise
culture. Cutting corners was never an option
and only the best could ever be good enough.
As well as the benefit of unparalleled

experience of the flow control market and
its growth over many decades, Pegler
Yorkshire has strong associations with
major industry bodies such as those
responsible for determining product and
performance standards.
These two companies were Pegler and

Yorkshire Fittings. Although in meeting all the
challenges of the 20th and 21st centuries
each has changed a great deal, the business
ethos common to both never has. And now
these two like minds have come together as
Pegler Yorkshire a single source of proven,
flow control solutions for installers,
specifiers and engineers in the domestic,
public and commercial markets.
Reputable and established brands

Just as Pegler and Yorkshire have endured
over such a long period, many of the brand
names they have created over time are
similarly very well established, in many cases
as market leaders in their respective categories.
The very extensive Pegler Yorkshire product
range now comprises more than 15,000 lines
without rival for the choice and coverage
it offers and for the number and scope of
applications it satisfies.
A mind for innovation

Brands which endure and are not easily
displaced must by definition be the product
of innovative thinking and technology that
continually stand the test of time. Pegler
Yorkshires no-compromise philosophy will
always put new product development high
on the agenda, based on not only meeting
the needs of todays markets, but also
anticipating and meeting customers
future needs.
Standards
Pegler Yorkshire are dedicated to designing,
developing and manufacturing products of
the highest quality. We are members of
numerous standards committees and take an
active part in their development. Our products,
where applicable, comply with the relevant
British, European and International standards.
Whatever the latest developments, we
guarantee that our products will always
meet the latest and highest standards.
The result is a comprehensive store of

Trade bodies
knowledge and reference which is invaluable
Pegler Yorkshire is pleased to be associated
in the key areas of research, development and with several influential industry organisations:
dealing efficiently and accurately with
customer enquiries particularly with regard
to product application and suitability.
Construction
A charter for the best

in customer service
With so diverse a product range and customer
base, Pegler Yorkshires no-compromise
standards of quality, reliability and value
for money naturally go hand in hand with
the principle of delivering the best in
customer service.
Green awareness
and responsibilities
Developing products which reduce the carbon
footprint by saving water and energy is only
one side of the green issues coin. Pegler
Yorkshire is also increasingly committed to
recycling key production materials (such as
brass), eliminating the need for excessive
packaging wherever possible, and looking for
new ways in which the companys day-to-day
operations can be improved to reduce waste
and minimise the impact on the environment.
Likewise, social responsibilities such as
supporting employee and local community
welfare are aspects of the very fabric and
philosophy upon which both Pegler and
Yorkshire were founded.

Working temperatures
Working temperatures and pressure tables
The maximum temperature and pressure
range in any system is dictated by the
component with the lowest performance
rating. Remember to pressure test
all systems thoroughly after completion.
Tectite installations may be tested to
1.5 times their normal working pressure
at ambient temperature.

Achieving low temperatures

For products used in water systems, working
temperatures of less then 4C can only be
achieved if antifreeze is added to the system.
Pressure Equipment Directive

Since 30th May 2002 most pressure equipment and assemblies on the market in the
Tube/pipe used with

Copper
United Kingdom have had to comply with the

Pressure Equipment Directive (P.E.D.) 1999.
Fittings are exempt from the P.E.D. unless
they are incorporated into pressure equipment, meaning that all Tectite fittings are
exempt. Tectite valves are also exempt.

BS EN 1057 includes specified
temper conditions (material

the number, the harder the
material. As a result, tube
diameter, wall thickness, length

and the material temper must
all be specified for full product

All Tectite 316 fittings can be
used with copper tube, although
in humid conditions some staining
of the tube may be witnessed

The following are some of the specific design considerations it is important to take
account of when designing and installing pipework systems containing Tectite fittings.
Thermal movement
subject to stress which must be

avoided. So its important to
take the effect of thermal
movement into account when
designing or installing a system.
Thermal movement is a major

consideration when designing
plumbing and heating systems.
Pipework systems expand and
contract with changes in
temperature. If they are fixed
too rigidly and their movement
restricted, the systems will be
Its especially important to

avoid stress concentrations

Correct anchoring
Design considerations
Always ensure the spur used

to anchor the branch of a
tee or connecting a radiator
is long enough to allow normal
thermal movement. Failure to
observe this simple rule can
lead to a failure. Incorporating
expansion loops or bellows
devices into the system
can help guard against such
problems, whilst a horseshoe
link or offset (see diagrams)
is an ideal way to counteract
continual thermal cycling.
Some contracts may still

require that proprietary
chemicals are used to cleanse
and flush pipework before
full commissioning. Tectite
is compatible with a wide
selection of products, to
find out more contact us.
Techniques for expansion

stress relief
Pipe restraint
In any installation, the system
should be supported to ensure
the minimum stress is imposed
on the tube/pipe and joints.

supporting brackets for internal
installations, please see the

Phenolic foam
Tube bending
When using rigid phenolic foam

(or other thermal insulation) to
lag pipework, always remember
to refer to the lagging
manufacturers fixing
instructions. To avoid the risk
of external corrosion of copper
pipework lagged with this foam,
it is recommended that such
insulation products be installed
with a moisture barrier.
Materials like Densopaste or a
plastics covering applied by the
tube manufacturer both provide
an appropriate barrier between
the outer surface of the tube or
fitting and the foam.
Portable bending machines are

ideal for copper tubes up to
28mm. Most machines bend the
tube between matched formers
and back guides that support
the outside diameter (OD) of
the tube. This eliminates the
risk of the tube wall collapsing.
Some manufacturers of this type

of lagging supply their products
with an internal, factoryapplied sodium silicate or
polyethylene barrier to prevent
external corrosion problems.
However, if you do need to add
a barrier product, we
recommend that all Tectite
fittings are fully installed and
pressure tested before these are
applied and that they are
completely coated.
Covered pipework
Making provision for thermal
movement is vital where pipework of any material is installed
under screed, plaster or passes
through brick or blockwork.
The preferred practice is to:
pass tubes and pipes through
sleeves or conduits or to lay
them in ducts surrounded by
loose, non-rigid material such
as vermiculite or glass wool. For
further information, consult the
publication BS 6700:1997 Water
Services in Buildings.
Local Water Authority
The point at which the bending

pressure is exerted must be
maintained at the correct
distance in front of the formers
point of support. Its also
important to keep formers and
guides well lubricated. Bending
tubes correctly will avoid any
wrinkling and flattening that
can affect flow conditions.
Using adjustable bending
machines (which allow the
pressure on the back guide to
be adjusted) will ensure perfect
bends every time so long as the
root (inside) bending radius is
at least 3 times the outside
diameter of the tube.
Pipework clearance
When designing a Tectite
System, please take care to
ensure all joints can be made
and demounted easily. Observe
minimum gaps and insertion
distances to ensure sufficient
access for a demounting
clip/tool, where applicable
(see fitting spacing tables).

The Tectite jointing system has been designed with easy, efficient installation in mind.
Guide to
installation
The jointing procedures are
almost identical for every type
of Tectite fitting and
compatible tube material.
Where there are variations (such
as inserting a liner into a PEX
pipe) these are shown on the
following pages and in the
fitting instructions. To ensure
the fittings stay clean and the
O ring is protected from
damage, never remove the
fitting from its packaging until
immediately prior to
installation.
The tube/pipe can be fully
inserted by hand. A damaged
tube/pipe end will require
excessive force to be used. If
this is the case you should
check the tube/pipe is round
and deburred before continuing.
Tectite fittings with plain male
ends must not be used directly
with capillary fittings, since
heating will damage the nonmetallic parts. Neither should
plain ends on capillary fittings
be used with Tectite.
Heat should not be applied to
Tectite fittings, directly or
indirectly. They should be
disconnected (where applicable)
to avoid any possible damage
to non-metallic parts if they are
to be used on a system in
conjunction with capillary
fittings. Similarly, reconnection
must not be considered until
the heated tubes have been
allowed to cool and have been
flushed to remove any flux
residues. Use pipe clips to
secure finished installations and
prevent vibration or movement.
58
Painting
Preparation
Fittings can be painted with

water-based paints. Oil-based
or aggressive solvent paint
should be avoided.
New tube ends should have any

tape, labels or residual adhesive
removed, taking care not to
damage the tube in the process.
Check the tube is round, clean
and free from burrs and scores. If
necessary, trim and prepare as
below.

Having deburred as above you will

be left with a 1mm chamfer on
the outside of the tube as
indicated in the diagram. Wipe
clean the tube end to remove all
swarf and debris.
If a deburrer is
not available, a
fine file should be
used to prepare
the tube end.
1. Select the correct size of

tube and fitting for the job.
Ensure both are clean, in
good condition and free
from damage, scores and
imperfections. Do not use any
additional lubricant or sealing
compounds. Cut the tube square
using a rotary tube cutter
wherever possible. Take care
to ensure that the tube end
is deburred and chamfered. If
the tube is oval or damaged,
use a re-rounding tool.
2a
2. Remove any burrs or sharp

edges from the external tube
end using either the T110
(Tectite Classic and Tectite Pro)
or the T115 (Tectite Sprint and
Tectite Advance) 3-in-1
Tectite deburring, scribe tool
and socket depth marker or the
S120 deburring tool from the
4
XPress accessories range. Also,
ensure the internal bore is
deburred. For deburring
stainless steel tube ends a fine
toothed file should be used.

Then wipe clean the tube end

to remove all swarf and debris
this helps to avoid damage to
the O ring when inserting
the tube.

3. To make a perfect joint, the

tube must be fully inserted in
the fitting until it meets the
tube stop. To confirm that this
is the case, mark the socket
depth on the tube or pipe using
the T110/T115 socket depth
marker (Tectite Classic, Tectite
Pro & Tectite 316) or a tape
measure and a marker/pencil.
For the socket depth of each
size of fitting, see tables.
4a
An alternative method of
preparing copper tube ends
35-54mm before inserting into
the fitting, is to use the
appropriately-sized S122
percussion deburrer (not for
carbon steel tube) featured in
the XPress accessories range.
Place the cup of the deburrer
onto the end of the tube and
strike it with a sharp blow from
a copper-faced hammer. As well
as removing burrs and sharp
edges, this tool also creates a
slight taper that aids insertion
into the fitting. If 10mm R220
annealed copper tube is being
used, ensure a T67 support liner
is fully inserted into the tube.
4. When jointing chrome-plated

copper tube with Tectite
Classic, Tectite Pro and Sprint
fittings, scribe the tube using
the T110/T115 (Sprint) scribing
tool to ensure positive grab
ring location. This helps to
accommodate any variance in
chrome plate thickness. Note:
The scribing function is not
suitable for stainless steel tube.

pipe and fitting for the job.
Ensure both are clean, in good
condition and free from damage,
scores and imperfections. Do not
use any additional lubricant or
sealing compounds. Cut the pipe
square using good quality plastic
pipe shears with a sharp blade.
2. Where Tectite-PEX barrier pipe
is used, remove the label from
the pipe end. If the pipe has
been used on a previous
installation cut the tube back to
behind the teeth marks, ensuring
there are no score marks on the
pipe. Also ensure the correct
pipe support liner from the pipe
manufacturer is fully inserted
into the pipe (T66 for Tectite
flex).

2. The plastic coating must be

removed to the socket depth of
the fitting using the S115
stripping tool from the XPress
accessories range. Select the
correct sized tool, fully insert
the tube and twist the tool
until the excess of plastic is
completely detached.
3. Remove any burrs or sharp
edges from the external tube
end using an S120 deburring
tool from the XPress accessories
range. Also deburr the internal
bore. If using plastic coated
tube, the use of the S115 tool
(as point 2), will deburr the
inside of 15mm to 28mm tube.
The same tool will also deburr
the outside of plastic coated
tube insert the tube into
the opposite end of the tool
and twist.

Jointing
1. To make a perfect joint, the tube or pipe must be fully inserted
in the fitting until it meets the tube stop. To confirm that this
is the case, mark the socket depth on the tube or pipe using
the appropriate socket depth marker or a tape measure and a
marker/pencil. For the socket depth of each size of fitting,
see tables on page 58.
NOTE: Tectite Sprint and Tectite Advance fittings must not be

used with the male ended fittings from other Tectite ranges
(except T526S). Other third party male ended products should
not be used with any Tectite fittings.
Do not use Tectite fittings on gas services.
Tectite Classic fittings do not provide electrical continuity, other
Tectite fittings only provide electrical continuity when installed
with metal tube.
2. Inspect the fitting ensuring that the grab rings/O-rings have

not been contaminated with grit or debits. Insert the tube/pipe
into the mouth of the fitting to rest against the grab ring.

3. Push the tube firmly with a slight twisting action until it

reaches the tube stop with a positive click.
4. Ensure the depth insertion mark corresponds with the mouth of
the fitting and then pull firmly on the tube to ensure the fitting
is secure.
NOTE: We recommend all systems are thoroughly pressure
tested to 1.5 times working pressure before the hand-over to
the customer.

35mm to 54mm sizes
Although manufactured to a different design, jointing tubes in sizes from 35mm

to 54mm with Tectite Pro and Tectite 316 fittings is basically the same as it is
at smaller sizes.
Preparation
The first thing to consider when

it comes to installation of 35mm
to 54mm fittings is whether you
plan to demount any fittings in
the system on a regular basis. If
you do, then we recommend you
replace the standard end cap
with the appropriately sized TDX
demounting end cap.
To ensure the fittings stay clean
and the 'O' ring is protected
from damage, never remove the
fitting from its packaging until
immediately prior to installation.
When it comes to tube end
preparation and socket depth
marking for jointing with 35mm
to 54mm fittings, follow the
same routine as outlined in the
preliminaries, tube preparation
and installation tips sections for
10mm to 28mm fittings on the
previous pages.
1. Insert the tube through the

end cap to rest against the
grab ring.
2. Now push the tube firmly
with a slight twisting action
until it reaches the tube stop
with a positive click.
3. Ensure the depth insertion
mark corresponds with the
mouth of the fitting, then pull
firmly on the tube to ensure
that the fitting is secure.
NOTE: We recommend all
systems are thoroughly
pressure tested to 1.5 times
working pressure before the
hand-over to the customer.

Demounting
How to demount Tectite Classic, Tectite Pro and Tectite 316 fittings from pipework.
Demounting
Tectite Classic, Tectite Pro and
Tectite 316 fittings in sizes
10mm to 28mm can all be
disconnected as described below.
Tectite Sprint and Tectite
Advance fittings are not suitable
for disconnection. Ensure the
system is de-pressurised and
drained.
1
1. Place the forks of the

disconnecting tool around the
fitting assembly. The fork side
carrying the Tectite brand logo
should be positioned around the
tube/pipe, with the opposite
side around the neck of the
fitting.
2. Squeeze the disconnecting
tool with one hand until the
release collar in the fitting is
depressed. With the other hand,
twist out the tube/pipe using
the thumb as a lever against the
tool to assist disconnection.
3. Check the fitting and
tube/pipe for damage before
remaking the joint.
4
4. The plastic disconnecting clip

may be used where only where
an occasional disconnecting
facility is required.
(You cannot demount Sprint or

Advance fittings)
62
Demounting
with TDX
demounting
end caps
Tectite Pro and Tectite 316
fittings in 35mm to 54mm sizes
are supplied with conventional
black end caps. If you intend
to demount the fitting on a
regular basis, a TDX demounting
end cap should be purchased
separately and substituted for
the standard end cap. A DTX
Tectite end cap tool will also
be required.
Due to the potentially high
frequency with which TX61/TS61
stop ends may be demounted,
they are supplied with the TDX
end caps fitted as standard.
Demounted
Demounting the fitting from

the tube is a simple process
when TDX demounting end caps
have been installed in the
fittings. Ensure the system is
de-pressurised and drained.
1. To remove the tube from the
fitting, insert the prongs of the
Tectite DTX end cap tool in the
recesses in the status indicator
(2) and turn anti-clockwise
fully. The status indicator will
withdraw into the fitting,
indicating that the fitting is in
the de-mountable position.
Using a clockwise twisting and
pulling action the tube can now
be removed.
2. Before reusing the fitting, the
status indicator must be returned
to the mounted position
(protruding).
Important: If the status
indicator is not in the
protruding position, the
assembly will not withstand
full system pressure.

continuity. Therefore, the end

cap must be tightened down
flush with the fitting body.
Fittings with standard black end

caps can be demounted from
the tube by unscrewing the end
cap with the Tectite DTX end
cap tool and snipping off the
grab ring with side cutters,
discarding both grab ring and
O ring. A new grab ring and O
ring must be used when
reassembling the fitting
(see the disassembly section).
2. Screw the end cap back into

the fitting until hand tight.
If resistance is felt and the end
cap is not flush with the fitting
body, remove the end cap and
ensure the grab ring is fully
located i.e. fully in contact with
the alignment ring. Again screw
the end cap into the fitting
until hand tight. Temporarily
insert a 300mm length of
deburred tube into the fitting
BUT NOT THROUGH the grab ring
to help locate the demount
tool. Tighten the end cap a
further 8mm to 10mm. Remove
the tube.
Disassembly
Replacing the O ring on 35mm
to 54mm Tectite Pro and Tectite
316 fittings is easily achieved
by disassembling the fitting.
1. Have replacement parts for

the discarded items ready for
insertion. Using a spanner on
the fitting flats to prevent the
fitting from rotating, insert the
Tectite DTX end cap tool into
the slots in the end cap.
Turn the tool anti-clockwise to
unscrew the end cap and slide
it along the tube away from
the fitting body.
5. Snip off the grab ring with

side cutters and discard.
Reassembly
Tectite Pro grab rings (TX105)
and Tectite 316 grab rings
(TS106) are not interchangeable. Care must be taken when
replacing grab rings to ensure
that only the correct grab ring
is used.
1. Before re-assembly have
replacement parts for the
discarded items ready for
insertion, ensuring all the
components are clean and the
O ring is lubricated using S130
Silicone lubricant from the
XPress accessories range.
Replace the components in the
correct order, as shown, and
check they are fully seated in
the fitting body.
Note: The grab ring operates
with an interference fit in the
body to provide electrical
3. Before reinstalling the fitting

back into the system, check the
end of the tube for damage. If
the tube is scored or damaged,
remove the affected section
with a tube cutter and prepare
the tube end as described in
preliminaries and tube
preparation (page 58).
Replacement
O rings
TX100 replacement 'O' rings

and TX105/TS106 grab rings
are available (sizes 35mm to
54mm) in the event that any
are lost or damaged on-site.
We recommend the use of
S130 Silicone lubricant grease
available from the XPress range
to aid insertion of the replacement 'O' ring into the fitting
as these 'O' rings are supplied
unlubricated.
4. Reinsert the tube into the

fitting up to the tube stop,
ensuring the socket depth mark
corresponds with the mouth of
the fitting and that the finished
joint is secure.
Once the end cap has been unscrewed the other components can be removed and replaced if necessary.
2. Pull the tube out of the

fitting body.
3. Remove and discard the
O ring.
4. Remove and retain the
alignment ring.
