Watts Introduces Sea Tech(TM) 35 Series Quick-Connect Fittings & Valves



North Andover, MA....October 13, 2005 Watts is pleased to introduce the Sea Tech(TM) 35 Series quick-connect fittings & valves. The 35 Series quick-connect design allows for fast, easy, leak free connections for Copper, PEX, PB and CPVC piping without installation tools. 35 Series fittings & valves incorporate a patented collet and O-ring guide design that protects the O-ring during installation and keeps it from binding and crimping, even under extreme side load conditions. The corrosion resistant stainless steel gripping teeth in the collet allow 35 Series fittings & valves to interconnect with multiple materials without the need for special tools or tube inserts. Stackable connector configurations using tee and/or elbow fittings can be used to quickly snap together mini-manifolds, eliminating many small lengths of tubing and extra joints and reducing the time required to plumb an entire system.

All Sea Tech(TM) 35 Series products are manufactured of Polysulfone, a high performance thermal plastic material and are approved and certified to NSF-61, NSF-14, CSA B137.5, ASTM F877, and to the Uniform Plumbing Code (U.P. Code). All connections made with the 35 Series are sealed on the outside diameter of the pipe, increasing flow capacity by 30% compared to tubing connected using barbed fittings. 35 Series connectors utilize a swivel nut with NPS straight threads and a cone seal allowing installers to thread onto NPT, NPS, BSP and most standard threads without tools or thread sealant. The 35 Series is rated to a maximum operating pressure of up to 250psi at 75ºF and 100psi at 180ºF.
