Kembla European Standard Copper Tube
Kembla European Standard Copper tube BS EN 1057
KEMBLA® copper tube is manufactured to a variety of international standards, including Australian, British/European, American and New Zealand, and is suitable for different applications such as plumbing, gas, air conditioning, refrigeration, medical gas, and general engineering applications.
The MM Kembla EN 1057 product range is suitable for drinking water purposes, both hot and cold, sanitation, central heating, gas and general engineering applications. The Kembla range is available in half hard and hard drawn tempers and is supplied in diameters from 15mm to 267mm diameter, and in a variety of wall thicknesses to meet the old Table X and Table Y requirements. Standard lengths of 5.8m are manufactured to facilitate ease of containerisation and stock of EN 1057 is held in Port Kembla, Australia.
MM Kembla has been supplying EN 1057 for over 50 years and is the market leader throughout South East Asia. MM Kembla also exports to distributors in many countries around the world for immediate delivery.
All tubes are fully certified by testing authorities in Australia, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, the Middle East and the United Kingdom and are guaranteed with a 25 Year Warranty.
All KEMBLA® tubes are lead-free and meet the stringent testing requirements of AS 4020: Materials in Contact with Drinking Water, of which a Certificate of Conformity is shown on our website.
Copper Tube utilising KemCore Technology
Benefits
> No weak spots
> Uniform wall thickness
> Optimal performance with press fittings
> Suitable for bending
> Stronger copper tube
All copper tube produced by MM Kembla utilises MM Kembla’s very own KemCore Technology which manages and measures the eccentricity of copper tube across its entire length.
Eccentricity is the variation of tube wall thickness that occurs during the manufacture of tube. The higher the eccentricity, the more variability in wall thickness, the higher propensity for weak points on a tube and a clear sign of poor process control.
Uniform wall thickness on copper tube is particularly important when using press fittings, which applies press force and deformation of tube. Uniform wall thickness minimises weak spots and ensures optimal deformation conditions for the perfect press tight connection.
The use of KemCore technology ensures Kembla Copper Tube is the most concentric tube on the market, providing uniform wall thickness and optimal performance when used with press fittings.
