Wavin Tigris MX MLCP axial press

Wavin Tigris MX is an axial press fitting compatible with MLCP pipes. It’s one-size-fits-all, including for underfloor heating, and offers maximum flow - great for high-rises and tall buildings with high-pressure loss requirements.

A one-pipe-fits-all solution for underfloor heating

A key component in our MLCP piping system, Wavin Tigris MX is a robust choice for underfloor heating installation and offers three significant advantages: 

  1. Ultimate Flow. 

  2. Rock Solid. 

The ‘Ultimate Flow’ concept maximizes flow by utilizing the entire pipe cross-section. With an inner diameter 30% larger than standard multi-layer composite pipes, it reduces pressure losses by up to one-third, making it ideal for plumbing situations with stringent pressure loss requirements. This translates to a higher flow rate, lower energy consumption and the potential to reduce project costs. 

 

Impact-resistant and tested under extreme conditions, the lead-free brass fitting requires no O-ring, and the sliding sleeve system is exceptionally robust and crack-resistant. Even in the most extreme scenarios, this' Rock Solid' performance has been validated via extensive testing, including cone and stability tests. The sliding sleeve has been tested to 10 times the required expansion and even at -10°C. Maximum continuous operating pressure is 10 bar. 

Tigris MLCP pipes are compatible with radial press fittings (Tigris K1/M1/K5/M5) and Tigris MX, our axial press fitting. Regardless of your chosen system, a single Wavin Tigris pipe works with any Wavin Tigris fitting, simplifying projects as ‘one-pipe-fits-all’.
