Gasket Kits
The standard single female lip seal kit is used to convert standard fixed components with a male collar for use in
condensing applications. The female lip seal must be fitted into the inward bead on the liner just below the male collar.
Lubricant should be applied to the outside of the protruding liner of the next component to be fitted (see Fig.2)
A separate gasket kit with 2 gaskets (1 female and 1 male) and a sachet of lubricant is required for adjustable pipes.
The female lip seal, with the lip on the inside is fitted, as per a standard component, into the inward bead as shown in
Fig.2. The second male lip seal with the lip on the outside of the ring is fitted into the inward bead, which is situated in
the top half of the 2-piece adjustable pipe (see Fig.3) and at the bottom of the 1-piece adjustable pipe.
N.B Where a 1-piece adjustable pipe is used, then no female lip seal is required in the groove below the male collar
of the preceeding pipe.
