HT Repair Coupler
Code: HTPRESUVKA 40Product detailed description
HT Sliding Coupler – Double Socket Coupler Without Stop
The sliding coupler is a short fitting with two sockets and no internal stop. It can therefore be pushed completely onto one pipe and, after the second piece is inserted, slid back over the joint. It is used for joining two plain pipe ends and for repairs where the pipe run cannot be spread sideways.

Frequently Asked Questions
- How can I check that this part fits my HEPWORTH pipe? Compare the size (pipe diameter in mm or inch thread) given in the name of this product with the diameter of your pipe - the HEPWORTH system uses its own precisely defined size ranges.
- Does the installation have to be carried out by a professional? Clips, anchors and wall brackets are common installation accessories that are also suitable for DIY installation; we recommend having the connection of the pipework to a working heating or water system checked by a professional.
