25 mm Diameter "U" Type Clamp, 32 kN

The BARA 32052525 jaw is a professional accessory for pressing tools, specifically designed to make joints with U profile for 25 mm diameter. It is identified for the 32 kN pressing category and is intended for pipe and fitting installation work that requires this specific pressing geometry.

Its U25 profile allows the corresponding compression geometry to be applied to the fitting within the compatible joint system, giving the installer a dedicated jaw for 25 mm installations. Before use, it is essential to check that both the fitting and the pipe system specify U profile and that the press tool used accepts jaws of this type and nominal force.

U25 pressing jaw

Reference 32052525 corresponds to a 25 mm diameter jaw with U profile. The pressing profile is a fundamental factor in pressed pipe installations, as it determines the shape with which the jaw compresses the fitting sleeve.

For this reason, it is not enough for the 25 mm diameter to match: the installed fitting must also be approved or specified by its manufacturer for U-profile pressing.

For 25 mm diameter

This jaw is specifically sized for compatible 25 mm pipes and fittings.

Using the correct size is essential so that the jaw closes on the intended area of the fitting and to achieve a joint that complies with the pipe system specifications.

32 kN pressing class

The BARA 32052525 jaw is identified with a 32 kN pressing class.

The 32 kN rating refers to the force category of the pressing tool with which this type of jaw works. The pressing force is generated by the press machine; the jaw transfers that force to the fitting with the geometry corresponding to the U25 profile.

Therefore, before installation, it must be checked that the machine used accepts standard jaws for 32 kN systems and that its coupling system is compatible.

U profile for pressed pipe installations

The U profile is one of the geometries used in professional press-fit joining systems.

During the working cycle, the machine closes the jaw around the fitting. The inner geometry of the jaw shapes the fitting sleeve according to the profile established by the system manufacturer, achieving a permanent mechanical joint when compatible components are used.

Using the correct profile is essential: a U jaw must not be replaced by TH, H, V, M or other profiles unless the fitting manufacturer expressly authorizes both geometries.

Suitable for professional plumbing work

The BARA U25 jaw is intended for professionals carrying out installations using press-fit systems, especially in jobs where compatible 25 mm pipes and fittings with U profile are used.

This type of tool is commonly used in:

• Plumbing installations.
• Water distribution networks.
• Heating installations.
• Systems made with compatible multilayer pipe.
• Assembly and renovation of installations using pressed fittings.

Final compatibility with the pipe material and fitting always depends on the pressing system specified by the manufacturer.

Essential part of the pressing system

The jaw is the element positioned between the press machine and the fitting. Its function is to surround the fitting and transmit, in a controlled way, the force generated by the tool during the pressing cycle.

For this reason, three parameters must match before starting work:

• Diameter: 25 mm.
• Profile: U.
• Tool class: compatible with 32 kN jaws.

Use with compatible multilayer pipe

Within the BARA range, pressing solutions are marketed for multilayer pipe installations, and there are brand sets that include U-profile jaws in 16, 20, 25 and 32 mm diameters.

The 32052525 jaw specifically provides the U25 size for those systems in which the fitting manufacturer specifies this geometry.

It should not be assumed that any 25 mm multilayer fitting accepts U profile: the specification of the installed system must always be checked first.

Individual jaw to expand or replace the pressing equipment

As an individual reference, the BARA 32052525 can be used to complete a jaw set or replace a U25 jaw when a compatible pressing tool is available.

This makes it possible to keep different working diameters available without needing to buy a complete set when only the 25 mm size is required.

Checks before pressing

Before making each joint, it is advisable to verify:

• That the fitting is 25 mm.
• That the fitting manufacturer specifies U pressing profile.
• That the machine is compatible with the jaw and its 32 kN category.
• That the jaw is correctly mounted and locked in the press tool.
• That the pressing surface is clean and free of foreign bodies.
• That there is no damage, deformation or abnormal wear on the jaw.
• That the pipe and fitting have been prepared according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Importance of using the correct profile

In a press-fit joint, the jaw geometry is part of the installation system itself. Using a jaw with a different profile from the one specified can alter the deformation of the sleeve and compromise the quality of the joint.

The U25 identification allows the installer to quickly recognize that this reference is intended for 25 mm fittings that require U profile.

Jaw maintenance

As a tool subjected to high mechanical stress, the jaw must be inspected and maintained according to the instructions of the press tool manufacturer and the jaw system.

It is especially important to keep the pressing area clean, check the free movement of its joints, and not use a jaw that shows visible damage or wear that could affect the closing geometry.

The inspection and maintenance intervals indicated for the press machine must also be respected, since joint quality depends on the correct operation of the assembly formed by the machine, jaw and fitting.
