Twistloc®
Twistloc® push-in fittings incorporate advanced technology, providing enhanced reliability and effectiveness in comparison to conventional fittings and valves. These innovative fittings guarantee long-lasting performance, granting you peace of mind during installation. By employing visual color connections, all plastic fittings and valves ensure secure connections. Twistloc® products carry certifications for PEX, PB, Copper, and cPVC pipe, enabling effortless combination of different pipe types for repairs or new installations. With straightforward installation procedures, our products significantly reduce labor time, thereby facilitating efficient workflow.
Twistloc® Features
Twistloc® products introduce a convenient and reliable push-fit plumbing system that combines pushfit and twist locking technologies. This unique design ensures a secure and leak-free joint, offering complete peace of mind. Suitable for plumbing, local/home hot water supply, and heating systems, Twistloc® utilizes a pressure and combination system, making it an ideal twist and lock solution. Our products have undergone rigorous testing and received approvals from WRAS, Kitemarked to BS 7291 Parts 1, 2, and 3 Class S, cUPC, NSF, Watermarked to AS 4176.3, and ACS. Manufactured to ISO 9001 BSI standard, they comply with the requirements of central local/home heating and water supply systems. Extensive tests have demonstrated the exceptional resistance of Twistloc® products to temperature and pressure beyond normal operational ranges. The patented secure connection indicator ensures peace of mind by visibly confirming proper joint connection—once the green band is no longer visible, you can be certain of a secure joint. This indicator simplifies installations, enhancing both safety and ease of use. To ensure proper installation, it is crucial to adhere to the correct plumbing regulations. For detailed fitting instructions, please refer to our installation guide.
Usage and Installation
Prepare the Pipe:
Ensure the pipe end is free from score marks. Cut the pipe square using a tube cutting device. To prevent damage to the fitting, remove and burs from the end of the tubing/pipe. When using tube inserts, a twisting motion will aid the insertion.
To Lock the Pipe Connection:
These instructions relate to the installation of Twistloc® fittings for copper, PB, PEX and cPVC pipes.
Please note that it is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that Twistloc® fittings, pipework and other components are appropriate for the intended applications, and that products are installed in accordance with the installation instructions and local plumbing codes.
No information in this publication is intended to create any warranty beyond the SNC product warranty applicable to the plumbing system.
Installing push-fit products:
Before you start, inspect the pipe. Ensure there are no scratches, gouges or any form of damage or deformation on the pipe. It should also be free from dirt and grease that may affect the seal.
Pay close attention to the first inch (25.4mm) from the cut ends. Damage or foreign substances in this area may cause leakage problems. If there are any concerns, cut the affected pipe end to a clean and undamaged point.
Don’t use any coarse materials to clean the outside surface of either plastic or copper pipes as this could affect the seal and result in leakage.
Ensure fittings and pipes are always kept clean by keeping them in the packaging provided - don’t empty products onto the floor.
Never insert your finger into the fitting as you risk being cut by the metal ‘grip teeth’ inside the fitting.
To Disconnect:
Make sure that the system is de-pressurised. Unlock fitting by twisting until coloured ring is visible. Press collect squarely against the face of the fitting. With the collet depressed, pull on the pipe to remove it from the fitting.
CAUTION
Do not apply any impact force to Twistloc® fittings.
Twistloc® fittings are plastic materials and should not be treated the same as metals.
Twistloc® fittings may melt, crack or distort if exposed to open flames or excessive heat.
Do not use pipe sealant, thread sealants or Teflon® paste in order to seal threaded fittings. All the connections to Twistloc® fittings are either a mechanical compression type, or seal with a rubber gasket and do not require any other forms of sealant. Do not insert fingers into Twistloc® fittings as the stainless steel teeth may cause injury.
If PEX pipe is used, then a tube support liner must be used also. The tube support liner acts as an internal support for the end of the pipe.
Twistloc® fittings should not be used for gas, fuel oil or compressed air applications.
DO NOT allow contact with any chemical or foreign substance; paint stripers, solder flux, Acid based descalents or chemical.
Twistloc® fittings are not suitable for buried installation.
All Twistloc® fittings and related products should be selected, installed, used and maintained in accordance with these Technical Specifications.
When cutting pipe, ensure that the ends are cut square and are free of burrs.
Ensure that there are no scratches, gouges or any form of damage on the circumference of the pipe within 1 in. (25.4mm) of the cut end. Damage in this area may cause leakage. Check the fitting for any signs of damage or foreign objects.
Do not use a damaged or scored pipe.
- Do not leave burrs on the pipe.
- Ensure that the pipe is pushed into the fitting fully and is engaged properly in accordance with the instructions.
* If the pipe is not fully inserted, the connection cannot be properly sealed even if the fitting is coupled.
* If these installation guidelines conflict or are inconsistent with local building or plumbing codes, any codes applicable to parallel plumbing systems shall prevail.
Do not use a hacksaw to cut a pipe. Do not leave burrs on the pipe.
Ensure that the pipe is pushed into the fitting fully and is engaged properly in accordance with Twistloc® instructions.
If the pipe is not fully inserted, the connection cannot be properly sealed even the fitting is coupled.
You must push in the pipe passing the collets (gripper) and the O-ring inside the fitting.
When a connection has to be disassembled and reused, ensure the pipe has no damage around the circumference within 1" (25.4mm) of the end. Inspect the tube and fitting for any signs of damage and ensure they are free of foreign materials. The connection can then be reassembled.
For plastic pipes:
- Always use an appropriate pipe cutting tool such as plastic pipe shears to cut plastic pipes. Never use a hacksaw as this could cause damage.
For copper pipes:
- Use a pipe cutting wheel or pipe slice.

Return Policy
Due to the nature of the products we sell, a strict return policy is in place. We work with food-grade certified materials that must be un-opened and un-used, so as to be able to be re-sold. This policy falls in line with the Australian Consumer Law, which is designed to protect BOTH BUYERS AND SELLERS.
You may receive a refund or credit of equal amount, less the Restocking/Out-of-Pocket Shipping Expense Fee, if applicable, and any other deductions that are relevant.
- 30-Day Returns Policy: Returns will not be accepted without prior approval or after 30 days of the invoice date.
- Wrongly Purchased Items/Changes of Mind Policy: Wrongly Purchased Items, or Change of Mind Purchases may be returned for a merchandise credit. This applies to, but is not limited to purchases of products that are:
- The Wrong Size;
- The Wrong System;
- The Wrong Replacement Pack;
- Due to a Change of Mind;
- Due to Buyer Error, whereby the buyer has failed to conduct proper due diligence (including contacting FSA prior to purchase in order to clarify the relevant technical specifications, compatibility, requirements etc.) to ensure the product purchased from us is the correct product for their requirements.
- Restocking/Out-of-Pocket Shipping Expense Fees Policy: All returns will incur a 17.5% restocking fee OR an out-of-pocket shipping expense fee, whichever is greater.
- This fee is in place to cover the administrative expense incurred in processing the return and/or the out-of-pocket expenses incurred by us in shipping the item to you. FSA may use its discretion to determine the restocking fee. Please note this policy falls in line with the ACL, and is designed to protect us as the seller from losses incurred due to buyer error. This means that you will NOT receive a full refund of the original purchase price - you will bear the cost of shipping the product back to us, and then you will receive a credit equal to the purchase price of the product LESS the Restocking/Out-of-Pocket Shipping Expense Fee. Please refer to our Shipping Policies (below) for further clarification.
- Low-Value Returns: Please note that with low-value items, sometimes the cost of sending the item back to us may be more expensive to you, than simply keeping the item. For example, let's say you have ordered 3x meters of the wrong-sized tubing for your needs and paid $12.00. If, for example, it cost us $7.69 to send the item to you, and it would cost you $7.69 to send the item back to us, overall you would be $3.38 worse off (due to incurring $7.69 to send the item back to us, and having $7.69 taken out of the credit) than if you had kept the item and re-ordered the correct product for your needs.
- Shipping Policies:
- Free Shipping Offer: As part of our offer of Free shipping Australia-Wide, FSA reserves the right to select the most cost-effective courier to effect delivery of the product to you. We make no guarantee as to how long an item will take to arrive due to unforeseen circumstances outside of ours/the couriers' control, including but not limited to: Staff Shortages, Supply Chain Demand, Extreme Weather Events etc.
- Express Shipping Policy: If you require an item on an urgent or Express basis, it is your (the buyer's) responsibility to contact us directly by telephone on [phone removed by eBay] prior to purchase, in order that we may quote you the options available for Express Delivery to your nominated address, and to organise additional payment for this Express Service. Express Shipping is not included in our offer of free shipping - this service will come at an additional cost payable by the buyer.
- Late Shipping Policy: Given that we offer the option for customers to organise Express Shipping with us prior to purchase, cancellations or refunds will NOT be issued on the basis of late or delayed shipping where the customer has opted for our Free Shipping offer. If the item (sent via Free Shipping), arrives late and the buyer wishes to return the item on this basis, the buyer will be liable for the cost of returning the product to us and a Restocking/Out-of-Pocket Shipping Expense Fee will be applicable to the return, as per the listed returns policy line items above. The customer will be issued a merchandise credit.
- Our offer of Free Shipping does not apply to Returns: Whilst we offer Free Shipping, this does not mean that there is no cost to ship the product - obviously, a shipping expense is incurred, and as with all e-commerce operators that offer Free Shipping, the cost of shipping the product from our warehouse to your nominated shipping address is built into the price of the product. The offer of Free Shipping therefore only applies to the act of FSA supplying the product to you, and does not cover the cost of returning the product from the customer to FSA.
- Returned to Sender Items: In the case of the buyer being unavailable to sign, refusing delivery, or the item being sent back to us for whatever reason, FSA may, at its discretion, pass the cost of the product being Returned to Sender (i.e. being returned back to us), back onto the buyer. Refer to Restocking/Out-of-Pocket Shipping Expense Fees (above).
- Lost Parcels: If an item is deemed to be LOST IN TRANSIT by the courier, the customer is entitled to a replacement product or refund in line with the ACL. In the case of a replacement product, FSA reserves the right to send the replacement product in line with its Free Shipping offer. If you do require the replacement item urgently, please get in touch with our customer service team directly to organise Express Shipping.
- Product Damage & Product Faults: Any damage to products that are not reported to FSA within 48 business hours of receipted delivery is not covered under our transit warranty. Return shipping is to be paid by the buyer to the address provided by FSA. It is recommended that the customer applies a transit warranty to the return freight item/s, in case of damage.
- Faults: Should the item appear faulty or doesn’t work as described, you must supply written/photographic/video evidence of the fault to us, so that we may assess whether the unit/item must be returned for testing (if requested). If testing is requested, return postage is to be paid by the buyer.
- If the unit/item is deemed to be faulty, compensation will be provided for the postage cost (proof of cost required).
- If the unit/item is deemed to be in working order and as described, the buyer will be responsible for the cost of return postage of the product from FSA's premises, back to the buyer.
- Minor Damage: Any damages (minor, that can be repaired) will incur a fee, that will be deducted from the total refund which will be equal to the cost of the replacement parts (List Price) and labour charges (if applicable) to repair the system(s). This will be separate from the Restocking/Out-of-Pocket Shipping Expense Fees.
- Major Damage: Any damage considered to be major and not feasible for repair may be refused and the return request will be void. The customer will be responsible for the return freight or disposal of the damaged unit.
- Faults: Should the item appear faulty or doesn’t work as described, you must supply written/photographic/video evidence of the fault to us, so that we may assess whether the unit/item must be returned for testing (if requested). If testing is requested, return postage is to be paid by the buyer.
