Description

This Wavin Tigris repair coupling, type M5, is used in piping systems for drinking water, heating, underfloor heating, and cooling. The coupling is placed where a leak or damage has occurred in the pipe.

In addition to this repair coupling, the Wavin Tigris range includes various other couplings, such as:
  • Multi layer pipes.
  • Wall plates.
  • Mounting bracket.
  • Tools.

Properties

The Tigris M5 repair coupling is resistant to high pressure and temperatures. Its impact-resistant properties make the coupling widely applicable.

The coupling is equipped with several features, including:
  • Multi jaw: Multiple crimp jaw profiles can be used.
  • Opti flow: The larger inner diameter ensures optimized flow.
  • Easy fit: Due to the modified internal structure, there is no risk of damage to the O-ring when inserting the multilayer pipe.
  • In4sure: A quick check where you can see if the pipe is inserted far enough into the fitting.
  • Pipe grip: The pipe stays in place within the coupling when correctly inserted, until it is pressed.

Material

Housing: brass.
Press sleeve: stainless steel.

Assembly

The Wavin Tigris repair coupling is installed in an existing pipe and can be pressed using Wavin tools. The coupling is equipped with leak detection called: Defined Leak and Acoustic Leak Alert.

The assembly of the coupling goes in a few steps:
  • Cut out the damaged section of the pipe using a pipe cutter.
  • Note: The minimum length for this is 135 mm, and the maximum length is 160 mm.
  • Check if the ends of the pipe are smooth and clean, then slide one end of the repair coupling over the pipe.
  • Check if the pipe is visible in the transparent ring and then press the fitting.
  • If necessary, slide the coupling to the desired length and insert the pipe into the other side of the fitting.
  • Press the fitting.
After installing the Wavin Tigris system, a pressure test should be conducted. The Defined Leak control is applied during a pressure test with water. If a coupling is incorrectly pressed, water will flow from the coupling. The K5 and M5 coupling types are also equipped with the Acoustic Leak Alert. This control is applied during a pressure test with air. If a fitting is not properly pressed, a whistling sound will be heard.
