MECHFit

Second generation!

We introduce the new "MECHFit" fitting, the only press-fitting without tools, more reliable than traditional press-fittings, that is compatible with Multilayer and PEX pipes.
"MECHFit" connects tightly with both Multilayer and PEX pipes, without typical problems associated with fitting systems that require tools.
The new "MECHFit" fitting gives 25 years guarantee and the snap-on solution makes connection incredibly fast without any tool !
An astonishingly simple and reliable solution than traditional press-fittings.

Simple & Reliable!

Can you believe in such an apparently simple fitting system that requires neither tool nor elaborate training for the installers?
Yes you would. The system is so simple enough that any person could operate the installation.

High Productivity!

This apparent simplicity is an engineering innovation by COCOMECH, working with the most stringent Japanese customers looking for quality solution.
We are encouraged by the success of these fittings in the Japanese market where customers want leak-free, tight union and pipe fittings. Till date, more than 50 million fittings have been sold. The new "MECHFit" is an evolution of tool-free fittings used in Japan for many years, made by COCOMECH thorough research and engineering innovation.
The large offerings from the new "MECHFit" fitting system for use in all kinds of sanitary, heating and chill water( FCU system)installations give you best opportunity for cost down and improvement of productivity.

How the "MECHFit" works?

The exclusive technology of the "MECHFit" is based on its clamp ring feature, that grips the pipe, making it the only press fitting without tools. The patented "MECHFit" clamp ring is made from a heat-treated special spring steel. This unrivaled patented technology comes from the Japanese automobile industry.
After inserting the pipe into the fitting, the small red Jumping Pin pushed out from the ring and the clamp ring starts compressing the pipe from the outside, absorbing the dimensional changes that occur in the pipe.
The key feature of the "MECHFit" clamp ring is that its spring effect guarantees a long-term water tightness connection. For the constant pressing force applying to the pipe, any possible fluctuation in the pipe dimension could be absorbed. All the other tool-free fittings, like the pushfit types, are called old generation and they are struggling how to absorb the dimensional fluctuation of the pipe.
Actually the pipes never have the nominal dimensions, either because of the manufacturing tolerance, the standards permit tolerance in the external diameter and in the wall thickness of the pipe, or because of the dimensional changes that the pipe suffers when functioning connected to the fitting, the well-known creep effect.

The "MECHFit" system uses the best combination or new generation of metal and plastic materials

Operating Precautions

  1. Cut the pipe with a proper pair of scissors, making sure that the cut is square and clean.
  2. Always calibrate with the special "MECHFit" calibrator.
  3. Wait for 3 hours before making the pressure test.
  4. Use only dedicated and / or recommended multilayer pipe and PEX pipe.

Toglit

Toglit`s Unique Technology

It is first in the world using "the toggle method" for plumbing joints!
Generally, "the toggle mechanism" is one of the linking methods to generate the multipliable force by small force.
COCOMECH has established a method to squeeze the pipe by this mechanism, which enables the larger size piping work extremely fast and reliable!
Especially installing with a Power tool and a bit, EASY INSTALLATION and USER-FRIENDLINESS WORKS will be assured.

A unique combination system by MECHFit for 16-32mm pipes & Toglit for over 40mm pipe can enhance the Workability and High Productivity that directly link to TIME-SAVING and COST REDUCTION.
Expand the Coverage by COCOMECH`s High Quality Fittings!!!

The New "Toglit" satisfies requirement of regulations "ISO 21003" (PEX/AL/PEX pipe) and complies with all the required tests.

Features of Toglit

QUICK & EASY INSTALLATION WITHOUT SPECIAL TOOLS

No special tools nor heavy tools are required for connection.
Dynamized squeezing force will be created by the "Toggle mechanism" with common wrenches.

EVENNESS OF SQUEEZING FORCE

Binding all around with equal force prevents the pipe wrinkles which may cause leakage. Less risk of leakage can be assured.

NO RESTRICTION OF INSTALLING PLACE

Compact and light weight fitting enables the connection drastically easy and light, even in a Narrow / Tight working area.

AVAILABILITY OF VERTICAL APPROACH FOR CONNECITON

Assured and visible installation available.

CENTER ACTION FROM THE FOREFRONT

Possible to install from Front side.

EASY CONFIRMATION OF COMPLETE INSTALLATION

Once the Nut was tightened until certain point, the Bolt and Nut will be removed automatically after completion.

COMPACT & SMOOTH FINISH

Little bulge after completion with cover.

Actualize the High Productivity!

One connection requires less than 1 minutes with 1 person!
Of course No special tool required. Using an impact wrench makes the connection much faster. Less time, Less workers but higher efficiency!!
It must give you a profit more than imagined.
