The RidgeLock™ Connection System
The innovative fitting technology at the heart of Ridgeline™ tube systems, delivering universal compatibility without compromising on reliability or performance.
Innovative Connection Technology
The Ridgeline™ system’s unique RidgeLock™ technology transforms standard EN1254 fittings into high-performance connections perfectly matched to our corrugated stainless steel tube. This innovative approach ensures you’ll always have access to fittings while delivering superior reliability.
Designed for Maximum Convenience
When developing the Ridgeline™ system, we made a strategic decision to utilize standard EN1254 fitting bodies and nuts. Why? Because we believe innovation shouldn’t come at the cost of convenience.
For Installers:
- Access fittings from any merchant
- Use components already on-site
- No special tools needed
- Perfect for emergency repairs
- Simple integration with existing systems
For Merchants:
- Stock single range of fitting bodies
- Reduced inventory requirements
- Simplified supply chain
- Enhanced customer service
The Power of Simple Innovation
By replacing just the olive in a standard EN1254 fitting with our engineered RidgeLock™ sealing ring, you transform an ordinary compression fitting into a superior mechanical connection designed specifically for Ridgeline™ tube.
This simple yet powerful innovation ensures that Ridgeline™ installations can be completed anywhere, anytime, using readily available components.
Not Just Another Fitting System
Mechanical Interlock
Unlike traditional compression fittings, RidgeLock™ creates a positive mechanical interlock with Ridgeline™ tube’s corrugations. This fundamental difference means the connection actually gets stronger under movement.
Movement Resistant
The engineered teeth in our sealing ring maintain their grip even under thermal cycling and movement, making Ridgeline™ connections ideal for concealed installations.
Universal Access
Using standard EN1254 components means you’ll always have access to the parts you need. Simply add our RidgeLock™ sealing ring to transform them into high-performance Ridgeline™ connections.
Seamless Copper Integration
The Ridgeline™ system makes connecting to existing copper installations simpler than ever. Using the same EN1254 fitting bodies you’re already familiar with, RidgeLock™ technology creates a perfect transition between Ridgeline™ and copper tube.
Simple Transition Process:
- Use any standard EN1254 fitting
- Standard olive on copper end
- RidgeLock™ sealing ring on Ridgeline™ end
- One fitting, two connection types
Common Applications:
- Connecting to existing copper systems
- Integrating with copper appliance connections
- Transitioning between pipe materials
- Repairs and modifications to existing installations
- Creating hybrid systems utilizing best of both materials
