This expansive reach grants QuickFitting immediate access to a professional audience in need of advanced, flame-free solutions.
Efficiency in Installation
The SurePress line is designed to streamline installation processes, significantly reducing the likelihood of callbacks
The SurePress line is designed to streamline installation processes, significantly reducing the likelihood of callbacks. Unique in its design, these copper press fittings feature 360-degree indicator windows. Successful connections are confirmed at a glance: green markers fill these windows post-press, ensuring a proper seal has been achieved.
Quick visual indications enable both installers and inspectors to verify that a fitting is pressed before conducting pressure tests. Compatible with V-profile jaws from major hydraulic press tools, SurePress eliminates the need for flame, solder, or glue.
This makes it particularly suited for new constructions and retrofits in environments where open flames are either impractical or restricted, and rapid inspections are necessary.
Strategic Partnership
The visual feedback system inherent to SurePress reduces rework, aids in catching unpressed fittings before potential leaks occur, and enhances trust throughout the installation process.
Katie Zyra, Director of Marketing & Product Management at QuickFitting, remarked, “Partnering with Grainger represents a strategic milestone for QuickFitting. Grainger serves professionals who demand reliability, safety and speed on every job. SurePress aligns perfectly with that standard because it delivers verified performance without the guesswork of traditional methods.”
