MLCP Press Fit Female Elbow
Product details
An MLCP press fit female elbow is a 90 degree fitting with a press end for multilayer pipe (MLCP or PEX-AL-PEX) and a female BSP thread. Use it to connect onto male-threaded valves, manifold connections, pumps and appliance tails where the pipe arrives at a right angle.
Why installers use it
- Seven sizes: 16mm to 32mm pipe with 1/2", 3/4" or 1" female BSP.
- Neat at the manifold: turns and connects in one fitting.
- Specification: brass body, stainless steel press sleeve with an inspection window and insulating ring, and factory-fitted EPDM O-rings.
- Rated for heating and water: maximum working pressure 10 bar and maximum continuous temperature 80°C (95°C peak). Suitable for heating, underfloor heating and hot and cold water.

How to fit it
Cut the pipe square. Calibrate and bevel the bore with a Pipe Reaming Tool or Pipe Chamfering Tool. Push the pipe fully home until it shows in the inspection window, then press with the U-profile jaw that matches the pipe size. Seal the BSP thread with PTFE tape or a thread sealing cord.
