    Ace Pipe Joiner

    Whilst recently researching ACE pipe fix I came across some advice suggesting to not remove the pipe from the ACE block as it will forever leak.

    The same advice suggested to cut the pipe and join with a high pressure 3/8 joiner.

    It had a link to suitable joiners. I forgot to save the link and for the life of me cannot find the site or any where that sells such a thing.

    Anyone know where to get these.

    When my replacement pipe arrives it is only the front section, so I am going to have to do some joining.
    Dave.

    I was asked " Is it ignorance or apathy?" I replied "I don't know and I don't care."

    I can't find any specs on this regarding what pressure it can handle.

    I looked at something similar before I started this thread and it was rated to 500 psi.

    For ACE, 2000 psi is needed.

    You are right, i had a brain fart with the brass ones, search for steel fittings cos those can handle above 3000psi for example these: Amazon.com , 25MPa = 250 Bar(3625psi)
