Cap PRESS-PPSU IVAR.Z PPSU 16 for sealing ALPEX, TURATEC and PEX 16x2 pipe
Code: 82816820Product detailed description
The cap IVAR.Z PPSU 16 (code 82816820) closes the end of a 16x2 tube in the IVAR.PRESS crimping system – for multi-layer pipes ALPEX and TURATEC as well as for PEX tubes.
- body made of polyphenylsulfone (PPSU), crimping sleeve made of stainless steel AISI 304, EPDM O-ring, locking ring made of polycarbonate
- max. operating pressure PN 10, temperature range +3 to +95 °C
- hygienic certificate for potable water
- construction length 31 mm, weight 12 g
- radial crimping with jaws of contour B or F (TH according to instructions)
Cut the tube perpendicularly before pushing it on, calibrate and deburr it, and check its correct position in the locking ring inspection windows. A forgotten crimping will show as a leak during pressure testing in the range of 1 to 6.5 bar. Once crimped, the cap must not be used again.

Frequently asked questions
What is the PRESS-PPSU 16 cap used for?
It seals the end of an ALPEX, TURATEC or PEX pipe with a diameter of 16 mm (16x2). Once crimped, the cap must not be used again.
Which jaws are used to crimp the cap?
Radial jaws with contour B or F for a diameter of 16 mm, the instructions also allow contour TH. Cut the tube perpendicularly before pushing it on, calibrate and deburr it.
Will a forgotten crimping be revealed?
Yes, an uncrimped cap will leak during pressure testing in the range of 1 to 6.5 bar, so the error will be detected before the installation is covered.

To design and manufacture advanced hydronic solutions that reduce installation complexity and energy consumption.
“Made in Italy” adds value
IVAR has been producing heating and plumbing system components since 1985: valves for heating bodies, direct heat metering modules, heat cost allocators, pipes and fittings, substations for heating systems, distribution manifolds, radiant panel systems, and components for solar and geothermal systems. And it’s all “Made in Italy”.
Over 200 people are employed at our manufacturing facilities in Prevalle (in northern Italy’s Brescia province). The site has been designed to streamline our many production and operational stages.
The Italian headquarters also acts as a hub for the wider IVAR Group, set up with the goal of distributing products beyond Italy’s borders. The group now has 11 branches, in Australia, Belgium, China, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Czech Republic, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, the United States and Tunisia.
Know How
Research, development and numerous laboratory tests guarantee that our clients’ requests can be translated into new high-efficiency products.
The stages required for production take place internally, beginning with hot forming, which is carried out at our subsidiary Valmon Stampati. Our continuous implementation of projects under the Industry 4.0 initiative also allows us to take full advantage of new releases in technology and IT to improve our manufacturing efficiency.
As a company, IVAR is constantly evolving. Every day, we invest in strengthening our products, in improving our production processes and in attaining new patents and certifications.
