What is a John Guest Speedfit 90 Degree Tee Used For?

The JG Speedfit Superseal Pipe Insert is designed for secure and reliable connections when fitting a Speedfit pipe to a Speedfit push-fit fitting. It is crucial in providing extra support to the pipework, helping to maintain the shape of the pipe ends after cutting, and ensuring a tighter, more reliable seal. This insert is specifically engineered for use with both hot and cold water systems as well as central heating systems, making it a versatile choice for a variety of plumbing installations.

Difference Between Standard Pipe Insert and Superseal

While standard pipe inserts provide basic support and sealing capabilities, the Superseal variant enhances these functions significantly. The Superseal Pipe Insert features dual O-Rings, which offer a superior sealing effect compared to the single seal typically found in standard inserts. The first O-Ring is strategically placed on the stem of the insert to prevent leakage from within the pipe, while the second O-Ring seals inside the push-fit fitting itself, ensuring an effective barrier against leaks at the joint. This dual O-Ring system results in an advanced, multi-seal protection that is not available with standard pipe inserts.

Key Features

  • Enhanced Sealing: Equipped with two additional O-Rings to ensure a robust dual-action seal, significantly reducing the risk of leaks. The 10mm version features one O-Ring.
  • Rigidity and Support: Helps to maintain the structural integrity of the pipe connection and enhances the rigidity of the pipe, particularly when lateral pressure is applied.
  • Exclusive Compatibility: Specifically designed for use with Speedfit pipes and fittings, ensuring optimal performance and reliability.
  • Long-Term Durability: Comes with a 50-year guarantee when used with JG Speedfit Layflat PB and PEX Barrier Pipes.
