Wavin HX60/28W Hep2O SmartSleeve 28mm Pipe Support Sleeve

The Wavin HX60/28W is a 28mm Hep2O SmartSleeve pipe support sleeve, designed to be inserted into the cut end of Hep2O polybutylene pipe before making a push-fit joint. It is part of the Hep2O system, which is used for domestic hot and cold water and central heating installations.

It suits professional plumbers and heating engineers working with 28mm Hep2O pipe on new installations or repairs. The sleeve is required for every Hep2O pipe joint, except when connecting to the open spigot end of a Hep2O fitting.

The sleeve is manufactured from stainless steel and is a small, precision component, with barbs that lock it inside the pipe so it is not left in the fitting when demounting.
