No-brazing Gas Tight Joints

Daikin’s new Gas Tight Joints are a game-changer for those installing R410/R32 refrigerant piping.

Eliminating the need for hot works, the Daikin Gas Tight Joints (DGT) combine rubber packing and a screwed metal body, which offer gas-tight and rigid connections without brazing.

The patented “leverage method” holds the pipe mechanically, preventing pull-out.

The benefits of using DGT include:

- Time & labour saving - simple process cuts installation time

- Cost & time saving - less admin work (hot work permit) and safety (fire watcher)

- Safer - no brazing required, no fire watcher required

- No special tools or skills required

- High-quality, consistent installation

- Fully compliant with ISO 14903, proving safety and reliability of the system

- Extremely durable: can withstand up to 4 times the maximum operating pressure of R-32 refrigerant (17.2 Mpa)



The Gas Tight Joint Mechanism

As the nut turns, the “B” point-of-leverage corns are compressed and encroach the surface of the pipe. When the pull-out force increases, the corns encroach deeper to prevent the pipe from becoming loose.

Excellent performance

Thanks to the unique double sealing method, the sealing performance is secured over a long period, even under severe conditions of high pressures and extreme temperatures.
