JG Layflat Barrier Pipe Coil 15mm x 50m

JG Layflat Polybutylene Barrier Pipe for hot, cold and central heating plumbing systems offers greater flexibility than standard polybutylene and PEX pipe and is lightweight, this makes long pipe runs and cabling through joists faster and easier. The flexibility of the pipe reduces the need for fittings compared to traditional copper pipe systems, which in turn delivers labour and cost savings. The elasticity of the pipe reduces the chance of burst pipes during freezing conditions. Made from a safe and non-toxic material, it also resists scale build up and corrosion.

When removed from the coil, the pipe ?lays flat and stays flat', this means there are no issues with the pipe retaining its memory and trying to coil back into place. Made up of 5 layers, the centre of which is a coloured oxygen barrier to prevent the ingress of air into the system, reducing the effect of corrosion on metal components.

Layflat is available in standard UK plumbing sizes that reduces wastage compared to non-UK sizes. Designed, manufactured and assembled in the UK.

Connection to compression fitting

Many, but not all, compression fittings are suitable for use with plastic fittings and pipe. Users should therefore check for compatibility. Compression fittings with short tube stop depth or hard olives should not be used with plastic fittings or pipe. When using compression fittings with Speedfit pipe, a Standard Pipe Insert (prefix TSM) must be used to withstand the compressive pressure of the olive. The olive must be located within the length of the pipe insert and the pipe fully inserted into the fitting. The connection should not need more than 2 full turns after the olive has gripped the pipe. Copper olives are preferable to brass olives.
