Pipes
Megapress press connectors may be used with the following seam-
less (S) or longitudinal welded (W) steel pipes:
n

n
galvanised
n
industrially painted

The steel pipes must correspond to the applicable regulations, see

„Regulations from section: Pipes“ on page 6
If the pipe has been coated, the maximum external diameter
mentioned in the table must not be exceeded.
The standard differentiates between heavy pipe series H and medium
pipe series M or between pipe type L, L 1 and L 2. Seamless pipes and
pipes welded along the longitudinal seam belong to the different pipe
series and pipe types, see
