Compression lead line or Lead Line Compression
Lead line fittings allow the connection and repair of old fashioned lead water mains where replacement is not possible. These fittings are similar to Lead Lock fittings.
Lead line fittings can then accept modern copper pipe and provide a permanent repair.
The fittings can also be used in pairs, with copper pipe, to bridge damaged sections of lead pipe.
Available in following sizes:
-
3/8” X 5lb X 15mm
-
1/2" X 6lb X 15mm
-
1/2" X 7lb X 15mm
-
3/4" X 11lb X 22mm
-
3/4" X 9lb X 22mm
-
1" X 16lb X 1"FI
These are approximate dimensions that allow you to estimate the size of the lead pipe. Lead pipes can vary considerably in both diameter and wall thickness. You should always consider removing the lead and replacing it before repairing it - sometimes that is not possible and an adaptor such as Lead Line is the only option.
