Lubrication

All 'O' ring seals contained in Hep2O® fittings have been pre-lubricated during factory assembly. During normal installation additional lubrication should not be required. If however the fitting has been dismantled then the lubricant may have been removed by handling and may require replacing. If replacement 'O' rings are being used, these are supplied dry and should be lubricated before jointing.

Similarly in particularly difficult locations additional lubricant may assist in ease of jointing. In these situations Hep2O® Silicone Lubricant Spray (HX200) is the ONLY lubricant recommended for use with Hep2O® Fittings and must be used to avoid contravention of Water Byelaws and ensure compatibility with other system materials.
