Prima Press Fit Fittings Bucket WRAS Rated 100pcs

This Prima Press press fit fittings bucket gives plumbers a ready-to-work selection of 100 WRAS-rated fittings across the most commonly needed sizes and types. Rather than rummaging through trade counter bags or ordering individual packs, you get a single bucket with a sensible spread of 15mm and 22mm fittings that covers the majority of domestic and light commercial plumbing runs. The bucket format keeps everything organised on site, which sounds minor until you’re halfway through a first fix and can’t find a 22mm elbow.

Press fit fittings connect copper pipe without soldering. A press tool crimps the fitting onto the pipe, creating a watertight seal around an internal O-ring. The joint is made in seconds, there’s no naked flame involved, and you can work in areas where hot works are restricted or simply impractical. Bathrooms, kitchens, commercial premises, and insurance-sensitive properties are all situations where press fit connections are increasingly the preferred method.

WRAS approval — the Water Regulations Advisory Scheme — confirms that these fittings meet UK drinking water requirements. This matters on any potable water system and will be expected on commercial or local authority work. Prima Press fittings carry this approval as standard, so there’s no need to chase documentation separately.

What’s Inside the Prima Press Fit Fittings Bucket

The 100-piece bucket contains a practical mix chosen to reflect real-world usage patterns. Straight runs, direction changes, branch connections, and size transitions are all covered. The split across 15mm and 22mm reflects the typical ratio of pipework in domestic installations, with more 15mm fittings for final connections and appliance feeds.

The full contents are as follows: 30 x 15mm coupler, 10 x 22mm coupler, 10 x 22mm x 15mm reducer, 20 x 15mm elbow, 10 x 22mm elbow, 10 x 15mm tee, 10 x 22mm tee.

That’s a usable spread rather than a gimmick pack — you won’t find yourself sitting on 50 identical fittings you never need. The reducer count is intentionally lower, which reflects how often a size transition actually comes up compared to a straight coupling or a bend.

Press Fit vs Solder: A Practical Note

Press fit fittings are not a replacement for every situation — a trained plumber will still reach for end feed or Yorkshire fittings in many circumstances. But for speed, fire safety compliance, and working in occupied or sensitive buildings, press fit earns its place. The tooling investment is the main consideration; once you have a compatible press tool, the fittings themselves are straightforward and this bucket gives you the variety to start a job without four separate trips to the merchant. The bucket is also a reasonable way to stock a van for general maintenance and service work where you don’t always know what’s coming until you open the ceiling.
