The FRANKISCHE MLCP Alpex-Duo XS Adapter 1/2" Male Thread x 16mm is a precision-engineered press fitting for connecting 16mm multilayer composite pipe to 1/2" male threaded components in heating and potable water systems. Made from dezincification-resistant, lead-free silicon bronze, it ensures long-lasting durability and excellent corrosion resistance. Featuring a secure press connection with leak before press functionality, this adapter provides safe, efficient and reliable installation. Ideal for professional plumbers and heating engineers, it delivers consistent performance and system integrity.

The FRANKISCHE MLCP Alpex-Duo XS Adapter 1/2" Male Thread x 16mm allows a secure connection between MLCP pipework and male threaded fittings, meeting DIN EN 10226-1 standards for compatibility with a wide range of components in both potable water and heating installations.

Designed for ease of installation, the adapter features a white fixation ring with integrated inspection holes, enabling visual confirmation of correct pipe insertion before pressing. A fixed stainless steel pressing sleeve guarantees a strong and permanent joint when used with compatible press tools. Its flow-optimised design reduces resistance, supporting efficient water flow and system performance.

The leak before press function provides an important safety feature, ensuring any unpressed joints will leak during pressure testing between 1 and 6.5 bar, highlighting incomplete connections.
