Eurotubi – Carbon Steel

The use of pressfitting technology is prevalent in highly developed European nations such as Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, and the Scandinavian countries. The Eurotubi Pressfitting System comprises steel pipes and fittings featuring thin walls that enable the creation of efficient heating and plumbing systems. The assembly process is carried out using electro-mechanical pliers, which result in a permanent deformation, and the presence of a rubber gasket (O-ring) at the end of the fitting ensures an impeccable seal. These fittings can withstand high pressures of up to 16 bars and operate effectively at temperatures up to 120°C.

Efficiency and convenience

Except for the marine sector and applications for potable water, gas, and cooling, the CARBON steel pressfitting system is often the most suitable choice for all closed-circuit systems, as it combines the unparalleled reliability of pressfitting technology with very low costs.

Compared to stainless steel, CARBON steel has less resistance to corrosion, but if correctly assembled and properly insulated it meets all the requirements necessary for closed-circuit systems such as COMPRESSED AIR, FIRE EXTINGUISHING, HEATING, and SOLAR THERMAL.

The exceptional quality to price relationship makes this product the perfect response for lower budget installations.

  • O-rings: available in EPDM (black), FPM (red) or FPM (green) based on the applications.

QUICKER

Compared to traditional systems (soldering or threading), pressfittings drastically reduce installation times and costs.

EASIER

Installing pressfitting systems is so simple, it does not require specialized labour.

More HYGIENIC

The surface characteristics of AISI 316L stainless steel inhibit the growth of biofilm: the ideal environment for the proliferation of hazardous bacteria such as legionella.

LONGER-LASTING

Steel is the metal with the highest index of durability over time, reducing maintenance costs.

More ECOLOGICAL

Pipes and fittings are produced in completely recyclable steel. The production cycle of steel is less polluting that other materials.

Più CLEANER

Without threading or soldering, construction sites remain much cleaner and healthier for the installer.

BETTER LOOKING!

Elegant and glossy. Ideal for visible installations.

More CONVENIENT

The time savings during installation and the long durability without maintenance create a secure medium-long term economic advantage.

Characteristics

High-performance installations.

The Eurotubi Pressfitting System employs thin-walled steel pipes and fittings, assembled using electro-mechanical pliers, resulting in a permanent deformation. These fittings feature a rubber gasket (O-ring) at the end, providing an impeccable seal that can endure pressures up to 16 bars and operating temperatures up to 120°C. The metal pressfitting offers numerous advantages over traditional technologies using materials such as plastic, iron, or copper, and is versatile enough to be used in various applications, such as domestic water, gas, heating, air conditioning, cooling, sprinkler fire extinguishing systems, compressed air, solar thermal, and more, in both civil and industrial sectors.
