Name
Brymec End Feed & End Braze Fittings
Technical purpose of product or process This EPD is representative of Brymec End Feed & End Braze Feed Fittings manufactured from copper, brass and bronze. All fittings conform to BS EN1254-1:1998 and are guaranteed against manufacturing defects for 25 years. For full traceability all fittings are etched or stamped with unique branding; together with the EN specification reference and fitting size where space permits. Product Application: Suitable for use on hot and cold potable water systems, gravity fed or pressurised unvented heating systems, gas installation pipework and drainage & rainwater applications. The results of this EPD are representative for 1kg of Brymec End Feed & End Braze Feed Fittings. To calculate actual impacts per unit the results should be multiplied by the unit mass contained in the annex.

1This impact category deals mainly with the eventual impact of low dose ionizing radiation on human health of the nuclear fuel cycle. It does not consider effects due to possible nuclear accidents, occupational exposure nor due to radioactive waste disposal in underground facilities. Potential ionizing radiation from the soil, from radon and from some construction materials is also not measured by this indicator.
2The results of this environmental impact indicator shall be used with care as the uncertainties on these results are high or as there is limited experiences with the indicator.
