Galvanised Malleable Iron Pipe Fittings BS EN 10242:1995

Here at ValvesTubesFittings.com we only offer our customers Kitemarked galvanised malleable iron pipe fittings BS EN 10242:1995. The reason we do this is to be sure that when an installation is completed using our high-quality Jinan Meide fittings it will the vast majority of works be leak-free. Why should this be the case over the cheaper versions of this product, the reason is simple we offer galvanised malleable iron pipe fittings that are manufactured with BSP taper male and taper female threads. This ensures a better seal compared to BSP taper male x parallel female fittings which in the main do not carry any approvals or the Kitemark.

We realise the allure of a cheaper fitting seems cost-effective but by the time you’ve spent longer applying a greater amount of jointing material what you saved initially is lost in the increased installation time. In addition cheaper, non-approved malleable iron pipe fittings are more likely to leak than the BS EN 10242:1995 standard fittings meaning that a return visit to the site will replace or reseal and the existing joint will eat away at your profit margins and affect your reputation with your customer. Consider this if someone did an installation for you and it leaked would that business be the first one you’d contact for your next installation, probably not.
