40 mm PE compression fittings
40 mm PE compression fittings make it easy to create reliable pipework for larger irrigation systems. Straight connectors, elbows, branches and threaded fittings provide flexible routing options for main pipes and larger garden irrigation installations.

Connect 40 mm PE irrigation pipes
40 mm PE pipes can be useful in larger garden irrigation systems where higher water flow rates need to be distributed. Compatible compression fittings join individual pipe sections and allow the pipe layout to follow the requirements of the garden and irrigation design.
The compression system also makes installation straightforward. Suitable PE pipes are mechanically secured and sealed inside the fitting rather than permanently bonded. Always follow the assembly instructions provided for the particular fitting.
Use elbows and tees for flexible layouts
Irrigation pipes rarely follow a completely straight route. 40 mm elbows provide changes in direction, while tees allow additional pipe branches to be created. This makes it possible to supply several areas from a common larger pipe.
Threaded transitions provide additional connection options for suitable valves and other irrigation components. Check the pipe diameter, thread dimensions and specifications of all connected components before installation.
Install 40 mm compression fittings securely
A clean pipe end makes assembly easier and supports a reliable connection. Cut the 40 mm PE pipe as squarely as possible with an appropriate cutting tool and remove dirt from the pipe and sealing areas before assembly.
Assemble the fitting according to its design and make sure the pipe is correctly positioned. Test the irrigation system after installation and inspect every joint before the pipes are permanently covered or buried.
Extend irrigation pipework when required
PE pipe systems with compression fittings are well suited to later modifications. If another irrigation area is added, existing pipework can often be extended with additional connectors and branches.
A 40 mm line can supply a larger distribution section before transitioning to smaller pipes for individual irrigation zones. Suitable reducers and threaded fittings help adapt the pipe network to different parts of the system.
