Reduced compression sleeve

The Compression Reduced Sleeve is a high-density polypropylene technical fitting, specially designed for the assembly and reduction of polyethylene (PE) pipes. This component is the ideal solution to ensure a reliable transition between two different pipe diameters in your water supply, irrigation or hydraulic maintenance networks. Its robust design ensures a perfect seal and optimal resistance to the pressures common in underground or surface installations.

Simplified installation: Lubricated and captive seal

This sleeve has been designed to facilitate the work of installers, even in difficult access conditions. It stands out for its lubricated seal that allows a smooth insertion of the PE tube without the risk of twisting or tearing. In addition, captive gasket technology ensures that the sealant remains perfectly in place inside the fitting body during assembly, preventing critical assembly errors and post-installation leaks.

Ergonomics and tightening efficiency

Manual or wrench tightening is greatly optimized thanks to its ergonomic nut. Its shape has been designed to offer an excellent grip, allowing the necessary tightening torque to be achieved for a long-lasting mechanical seal without excessive effort. This feature is particularly advantageous when assembling complex irrigation systems or when making quick trench repairs where maneuverability is limited.

Concrete application cases

In a concrete case of agricultural irrigation, this reduced sleeve makes it possible to switch from a large diameter main line to a narrower secondary section to feed spray booms. For example, it is the essential tool for connecting a 40mm PE tube to a 32mm tube on a domestic installation. Its polypropylene material gives it excellent resistance to UV rays and chemical agents commonly found in soils, ensuring maximum longevity for your hydraulic network.

Mechanical strength and durability of polypropylene

Designed to withstand the harshest installation conditions, this sleeve is made of high-performance polypropylene, a material selected for its chemical inertness and resistance to UV rays. This structural robustness allows the fitting to withstand ground movements and variations in hydraulic pressure without the risk of cracking. Whether your network is buried or exposed on the surface, this reduced sleeve maintains a constant seal over the long term, making it a reliable investment for the sustainability of your water transport infrastructure.
