    Can anyone help identify this fitting and how to disconnect it?

    It's the feed to an ensuite shower room if that's any use from an unvented cylinder. Supply currently isolated.

    Thanks

    Can't for the life of me remember makers . But sure I can see wavin on the end . Sure there s a tool to remove these ie the 4 small holes . Think there not reusable! I may be wrong

    Good memory.

    That's them:),must been at least 10 years since there were around, might even have a catalogue for them stashed away.

    These are the newer HEP2O but need whatever these ones are, annoying that searching Wavin only shows the newer fittings and mentions nothing about what it replaced. Only need to remove them but didn't want to cut too much off the pipe so would prefer to just remove the fittings, might try 4 nails. Thought I found the model but each of the fittings has a different number listed as PA-x.

    Only need two of the 4 holes from memory. Try eBay for an old tool!

    Tried eBay, a few fittings but no tool. Tried the company and they confirmed they stopped making them 8-10 years ago, see if I can fashion something to undo them.
