How to fit
PerformLock is designed to go in fast, with no guesswork. Here's the eight-step process, from first cut to finished connection.
-
Place the cutting blade in the groove, perpendicular to the pipe, ready for a clean cut.
-
Rotate the cutting tool fully around the pipe to complete the cut.
-
Check the cut to ensure it's clean and free of burrs before fitting.
-
Don't disassemble the fitting. The foot of the inner ring must rest on the fitting body.
-
Manually loosen the nut on the male fitting by half a turn, unless it's already loose.
-
Push the pipe into the fitting until you hear the "click".
-
Tighten the nut until you feel resistance. Do not overtighten.
-
Once tightened, the nut should fully cover the threads on the fitting body. If any thread is still visible, keep tightening.
