RLS® Press Fittings RLS press fittings were specifically designed and engineered to join copper tube in high-pressure HVAC and refrigeration systems. Our patented RLS fittings are fully registered and listed to UL207 – for pressures up 700 PSI. These first-of-their-kind fittings connect quickly and easily using an RLS approved press tool and jaws, replacing the time-consuming practice of manually brazing joints. The pressing procedure is similar to the one used with water press fittings.
RLS® Press Fittings As easy as 1-2-3! The RLS connection process just couldn’t be any easier, with minimal training and experience required. It offers a simple, yet effective and economical, way to make leak-free copper tube connections. 1. Insert the tube in the fitting In a matter of seconds, a permanent and reliable mechanical joint is made, without the dangers of heat or flammable gas. Tube ends are prepped in the same way as brazing. THE RLS ADVANTAGE 2.
