Technical drawing
The environmental impact of TAVINOX PRESS press fittings (AISI 316L, 15–108 mm) has been calculated by life cycle assessment (LCA) and independently verified: EPD no. 3015-EPD-030070031 to ISO 14025 and EN 15804, verified by TZÚS Praha and valid until 17 June 2031. Pressing is done without a naked flame and without welding gases.

- Modules A1–A3 are the product stage under EN 15804: raw material supply, transport and manufacturing.
- The figures are not intended for direct comparison with the EPDs of other products — only declarations prepared under the same EN 15804 rules can be compared.
- According to the EPD, pressing with electric tools consumes a negligible amount of energy and is therefore not included in the calculation.
- Stainless steel is a fully recyclable material.
- The EPD serves as supporting evidence for LEED, BREEAM and SBToolCZ building certification; whether and how it counts depends on the scheme version and the project.

Technical parameters and facts
The TAVINOX PRESS Cap (F) is made from austenitic stainless steel, grade AISI 316L (1.4404), with 16.5–18.5% chromium and 10–13% nickel. The maximum operating pressure is 16 bar (PN 16), over a temperature range of −35 °C to +110 °C with an EPDM seal and up to +200 °C with an FKM seal. Product group UC10F covers 10 sizes: 15–108 mm, which corresponds to DN12–DN100 in ISO nominal sizes. The coefficient of thermal expansion of stainless steel tube is α = 0.0165 mm/m·K — on a 50 m run at ΔT = 50 K this means 41 mm of expansion, which has to be taken up by a U-shaped expansion loop or by a fixed point. The DVGW and PAVUS certifications cover use in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Austria, Germany and Poland. Selected sizes are certified for pipework in fixed fire-fighting installations (sprinkler systems). A press joint on the TAVINOX PRESS Cap (F) (M profile) takes about 5 minutes including tube preparation, compared with 25–30 minutes for a TIG-welded joint. Pressing is done with a cordless machine (19–65 kN), without a naked flame or welding gases.
