Common specifications

Key specifications

Dixon lists nut sizes 63 mm and 110 mm for the 7004 metric nut. The PN16 rating is stated for the Plasson metric fittings as a system, not for the nut alone.

Selecting the right option

Match the nut size to the pipe size (d) of the fitting it belongs to, and keep the split rings and seals that came with that fitting. Dixon says Plasson fittings and valves are limited to the maximum temperature of the polyethylene pipe and are not intended for hot water applications, and that for aggressive chemicals the end user should test suitability (manufacturer-stated).
