Extension 1/2" - 30 mm

Product detailed description
Brass threaded extension 1/2" - 30 mm is the most commonly used connector for steel heating pipework, for example under the boiler and in other heating installations.
A brass threaded extension fitting lengthens an existing threaded connection by a precisely defined length. Brass is a long-proven, standard material for threaded water and heating installations thanks to its corrosion resistance and reliable tightness when the joint is properly tightened.
Frequently asked questions
- How do I choose the correct fitting size? The thread size (e.g. 1/2", 3/4", 1") must exactly match the thread size of the pipe or fitting you are connecting to - designations such as FF (female-female), MF (male-female) and similar abbreviations in the name indicate the type of thread on each side of the fitting.
- What do the abbreviations FF and MF in the name mean? F (female, internal thread) and M (male, external thread) indicate the type of thread on that side of the fitting - for example "FF" means an internal thread on both sides, while "MF" means an external thread on one side and an internal thread on the other.
- Do I need to use a sealing material during installation? Yes, a sealing material (e.g. PTFE tape or hemp fibre with sealing paste) is normally used on threaded joints to ensure a perfectly tight seal - the thread alone, without sealant, will not seal reliably.
- Does the installation have to be carried out by a professional? A simple threaded connection can be handled by a competent DIYer with basic skills, but when working on an already functioning system (especially a gas or pressurised water/heating installation) we recommend calling in a plumber, who will also check the tightness of the joint after installation.
- What material and pressure class does this fitting have? It is made of brass, suitable for standard water and heating installations - exact nominal pressure and temperature values (where specified for the particular product) can be found in the technical parameters above.

Mission
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.
