Philmac EASYLOK Joiner 90mm

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

INTRODUCTION

Philmac, Australia's premier manufacturer of plastic compression fittings for polyethylene pipelines is proud to release Easy Lok.

Available from 50mm up to 110mm EasyLOK compression fittings are the fitting of choice for irrigation and industrial applications, where blue line PE pipe is carrying media such as water, compressed air or chemicals. Although designed for mining use, the range works equally well in other traditional PE pipeline applications such as irrigation and industrial.

Designed to make the job at hand so much easier, the EasyLOK plastic compression fitting is the product of Philmac's unrelenting commitment to continuous improvement and a culture based on innovation and ingenuity

BENEFITS

Ease of Assembly

•  Reliable Simple Process: EasyLOK fittings have been designed to ensure that installation is as easy as possible and that it works every time. When working with large pipes, installation can be challenging not only because of the size of the pipe but also the condition of the pipe. Recognising this EasyLOK fittings are installed by taking them apart and then putting the components on separately. The components all go onto the pipe easily and ensure that everything is positioned correctly no matter the condition of the pipe. The pipe can then be pushed into the body of fitting and the nut fully tightened. Installation is made easy and 100% reliable with EasyLOK.
• Ease of Disassembly: EasyLOK fittings have been designed so that they can be easily re-used. Once the fitting is installed it is a simple matter of loosening the nut with multi-grips or a spanner. Once the nut has been loosened the internal components can easily be released and the pipe removed from the fitting. Disassembly could not be easier.

Complete security

• Visual Stop: The flange on the body of the EasyLOK fitting provides a visual stop to indicate when the nut is fully tightened. This removes any uncertainty from the installation process.
• Chemical Resistance: Standard compression fittings are supplied with nitrile seals which fail when they come into contact with acids. EasyLOK fittings are supplied with EPDM seals which means that the fittings can withstand a wide range of chemicals without having to switch components.
• Designed to minimise pipe twist: The fitting has been designed to minimise pipe twist as the nut is tightened. Maximum pipe twist is approximately three quarters of a 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.
• Reduced Torque to Tighten Nut: With Easylok fitting it is essential that the nut is tightened fully so that no threads are showing to ensure compete compression of the seal. The EasyLOK range has been designed to minimise the torque required to tighten the nut making installation as simple and easy as possible

High performance

• Impact Resistance: EasyLOK fittings are made from a high grade of polypropylene to provide significant resistance to impact. There is always a risk of impact so the fitting must be tough and durable to provide a long life. At the same time if in the unlikely circumstances that the material should fail due to impact, it will result in a ductile rather than a brittle failure. This means that there is no risk of injury through a fitting explosion when used in a compressed air application.

Complete coverage

• The EasyLOK range is rated to PN16 and is available from 50mm to 110mm. To ensure complete coverage and that there is a fitting for all requirements EasyLOK fittings are available in joiners, elbows, male and female adaptors, tees and threaded elbows and tees
