Stainless for High-Demand Industrial Environments.
Mayer 316L Stainless Steel press-fit fittings with red FKM O-rings are designed for industrial applications requiring resistance to higher temperatures, compressed air, and a wide range of chemicals (refer to chemical compatibility and O-ring selection charts). The system is recommended for operating temperatures between –20°C and 199°C, with a maximum working pressure of 16 Bar. For any installations over 99°C please contact your local USCO representative.
For chemical or specialised system design, or if you are unsure about suitability, contact USCO for installation and application guidance.
FKM seals are suitable for:
· Heating water
· Condenser water
· Compressed air
· Industrial and plant applications
· Chemical dosing
· Non-potable systems
· Solar applications - indirect
Mayer does not recommend FKM for steam applications.

Key Features
Premium 316L Stainless Steel
(EN 1.4404)
High-grade, Austenitic stainless (SS316L) steel designed for strength, hygiene, and corrosion resistance in potable water and harsh environments.
• New Zealand certified for hot and cold water systems.
• Stable mechanical performance across temperatures.
• Safe, compliant, long-term system integrity
Suitable for potable water, process water, HVAC (chilled & heating), glycol cooling, RO water and more.
Leak Path and Crimp Indicator
A jointing system designed for installers.
Leak Path: Any unpressed joint leaks at test stage, making misses easy to spot.
Crimp indicator: A cellophane press indicator provides quick visual confirmation in real install conditions.
Available in sizes 15mm - 54mm.
It’s faster, safer, and cuts out the costly rework associated with welded or threaded systems.
V-Press Profile
Consistent, reliable sealing, press after press.
Mayer fittings use a V-press profile with premium FKM O-rings for proven performance across a wide range of applications.
With a larger press area than standard M-press systems, the V-press profile encapsulates the O-ring from both sides, delivering a stronger, more durable seal.
Clear Markings & Full Traceability
All pipe and fittings are clearly marked with:
• Material grade (316L)
• Pressure & temperature ratings
• Dimensions
• Certification marks
• Batch traceability
