Victaulic vs Compression Fittings - which is better???

[richg1]

Hi,

Looking for some expert advice on whether to use Victaulic's or compression fittings. It's for an enclosed heat exchanger skid with a max 400kPa pressure rating running 2" & 1" PE100 PN10 pipework between the system components.

Aim is to implement the most robust (ie. least maintenance) and most affordable option.

Any advice to help me decide would be very much appreciated.

Cheers

If that's the aim, use welded joints.

I think those joints advantages are in fast assembly.
