The ½" × 15mm End Feed Imperial/Metric Adaptor joins imperial ½" copper tube to a 15mm metric fitting or run with a soldered capillary joint. It ties old imperial pipework into a modern metric system in one fitting — the sizes are close but not identical, so the adaptor makes a clean, sound joint. Suitable for hot and cold water and central heating. Manufactured from copper to BS EN 1254-1 and fits copper tube to BS EN 1057.

Also known as: imperial to metric adaptor, imperial adaptor, imperial coupler, imp-met adaptor, conversion coupler, imperial metric reducer, ½ inch to 15mm adaptor, old to new copper adaptor.
