Sometimes a water supply pipe reaches the end of its service life - water defects are thus inevitable. Hawle actively combats these problems using Synoflex pipe connections! This is because the large range of Hawle Synoflex products even makes it possible to repair or connect older pipematerials (e.g. asbestos cement or metal pipes) correctly to actual pipe materials like for example plastic pipes. Synoflex connections are quick, safe, simple and durable and are suitable for above-ground and underground applications alike. A system for pipes of all types that not only saves storage space and storage costs, but a lot of hassle too.
The ZAK system from Hawle enables tapping saddles, valves and fittings to be connected quickly and easily. The so-called "bayonet connection" is simple and can be installed in seconds and disassembled and reused just as quickly if necessary. Producing reliable threadless connections for water and sewage pipeline valves and fittings has never been easier. They are flexible, 100% leak-proof and corrosion-resistant even at 16 bar pressure, making them exceptionally durable.
