Wavin Tigris K5 (Press Fit)
Our new Wavin Tigris K5 (Press Fit) turns pressure testing into your new favorite activity. Perform your pressure test with air and a loud sound will indicate where there is an unpressed fitting. But pressure testing with the Wavin Tigris K5 (Press Fit) press coupling has many more advantages!
In Nov 2021, the new generation of Wavin Tigris K5 press fittings introduced in India. These will replace the current Wavin Tigris K1 press fittings (diameters 16 to 40 mm). For new projects, you should use the Wavin Tigris K5 BIM Revit family as the Wavin Tigris K1 (diameters 16 to 40 mm) will be phased out.

Optimal flow guaranteed with Opti Flow
The new Wavin Tigris K5/M5 with Opti Flow reduces the pressure loss in the installation due to the up to 50% larger orifice.
Due to the optimal flow, the end user can enjoy a much better performance of the total installation system.
The Fitting That Blows You Away
The popularity of extortion with air is clearly increasing. Standing water and the risk of legionella contamination is thereby avoided, as well as frost damage in winter. The unique feature of the new Wavin Tigris K5 fittings is the Acoustic Leak Alert function: an innovative, integrated alarm system when air is squeezed.
With Acoustic Leak Alert, unpressed fittings whistle loudly and clearly (80dB) and can be quickly and easily located. Even when pressure is applied with water, unpressed K5 fittings can be quickly and easily traced.
Even more benefits
Thanks to the transparent grip ring, you can see from angles whether the tube is far enough into the fitting, even when there is little light. The hexagonal interior of the fittings reduces the insertion force to insert the pipe into the fitting. Extra handy with the larger diameters! Furthermore, the fittings can hold up to 2 meters of pipe unpressed, so that the installer has both hands free. The Wavin Tigris K5 fittings are available in diameter 16 to 40 mm. The other diameters up to 75 mm are available in the proven K1 range.

Easy switching thanks to Multi Jaw
The Multi Jaw makes it possible to press Wavin Tigris K5 press fittings with Up, H, U, B and TH press jaw profiles.
