Compression Sleeve Joint
REHAU EVERLOC TM 
The REHAU compression sleeve joint is a non-detachable joint which is in accordance with BS 1264 - 4. The joints can be concealed (e.g. within screed or concrete) without an inspection shaft as long as they are clearly marked on the installation drawings.
The REHAU underfloor heating connection system relies on the "memory effect" which is the recovery behaviour of the RAUTHERM universal pipe.
The bore of the "cold" RAUTHERM pipe is expanded using an expander tool. The fittings are then placed into each end of the pipe and jointed using the REHAU compression sleeving tool. This jointing technique requires one specific fitting for each RAUTHERM pipe size (16mm and 20mm) and jointing should only be carried out with a REHAU compression sleeving tool.
REHAU offer a wide range of robust compression sleeve tools to provide the installer the right tool for every installation.
IMPORTANT
Compression sleeve joints which will be covered in concrete or screed must be protected from corrosion in accordance with DIN 18560 e.g wrapping them in PVC tape.
