Three more ranges have been added to the extensive plumbing section of the latest Screwfix catalogue (issue 88) with the addition of Endex, Tectite Sprint and Yorkshire Solder Ring plumbing accessories.

Manufactured by Yorkshire Fittings, the new additions include system solutions for both first and second fix.

Recognised as being “where the trade buys” and promising a fast, reliable service, Screwfix offers more than 17,000 high quality, low cost building, maintenance and refurbishment items.

The comprehensive Endex range offers a choice of plumbing essentials, as does the Kitemarked Solder Ring selection which also features a variety of different items, each with a pre-soldered end. WRAS approved and available in 10 to 28mm sizes, both ranges are suitable for use on all direct and indirect hot and cold domestic water services as well as in small bore and minibore central heating systems. They can also be used in low pressure steam heating and are suitable for pressurised unvented heating systems within permitted temperature and pressure limits. In addition, they can be used in sanitation services for all types of domestic, commercial and hospital applications including compressed air lines, gas distribution systems for natural and manufactured gases, with fuel, oils and kerosene, and on engineering pipeline services that convey liquids, oils and gases.


Also WRAS approved, the Tectite Sprint range is available in 15 and 22mm sizes and is suitable for use on hot and cold water services, in heating and chilled water applications and on low temperature hot water services. Manufactured from copper and DZR brass, each item offers increased mechanical strength and is compatible with copper tube to EN1057, Polybutylene to BS 7291-2 and PE-X pipe to BS 7291-3.

The Yorkshire range is the latest addition to the plumbing pages which include everything from hand tools and boilers to complete central heating systems, bathrooms, showers and radiators.
