Female threaded press adapter IVAR.IVN480 18 mm × Rp3/4", stainless steel AISI 304
Code: IVN480.1834Product detailed description
The IVAR.IVN480 18 mm × Rp3/4" adapter is a press fitting made of 1.4301 (AISI 304) stainless steel that links a pressed pipe network to a threaded connection. One end is a press socket for 18 mm pipe, the other a female pipe thread Rp3/4" (PRESS × THREAD design). On the pressed side the joint is sealed by an EPDM O-ring.
Applications
- closed heating and cooling systems
- solar systems
- compressed air and vacuum systems
- inert and technical gases
- technical and process fluids, industrial applications
- waste water and rainwater
Drinking water is not among the listed uses.
Operating values
- pressure rating PN 16
- operating temperature -20 °C to +85 °C, maximum +120 °C
Press check
Until the socket has been pressed, the joint deliberately leaks, so a missed press shows up as early as the pressure test. The finished joint is additionally marked by a press indicator. The IVAR.IVN480 range offers both features in sizes up to 54 mm.
Note: pressing and sealing of the thread should be carried out by a qualified installer using a suitable pressing tool.
For 18 mm pipe, the IVAR.IVN480 range also includes an adapter with thread Rp1/2". The complete range covers sizes from 15 mm × Rp1/2" to 54 mm × Rp2".

Frequently asked questions
Which systems is the IVAR.IVN480 18 mm × Rp3/4" adapter suitable for?
The manufacturer lists it for closed heating and cooling systems, solar circuits, compressed air and vacuum systems, inert and technical gases, technical and process fluids, and waste water and rainwater. Drinking water is not among these uses.
What connects to each end of the adapter?
A 18 mm pipe is inserted into the press socket and pressed. A component with a male thread of matching size is screwed into the female thread Rp3/4".
How can I tell that a joint has been left unpressed?
An unpressed socket deliberately leaks, so the fault shows up during the pressure test. The finished joint is additionally marked by a press indicator.
What pressure and temperature can the adapter handle?
The adapter is rated PN 16 and is designed for operating temperatures from -20 °C to +85 °C, maximum +120 °C. The pressed side is sealed by an EPDM O-ring.
