HOW IT WORKS

Simple 5-Step process

Our press fit technology provides a safe, weld-free, low-cost method of joining metals. Unlike conventional pipe joining methods, press fit does not require welding, soldering, or brazing.

Instead, it uses pressure to join two pieces of pipe or tubing together for a faster and easier secure connection. Simply follow this 5-step process to install!
