Flexigas innovation
FG Bond
Earth bonding, built into the fitting. The integrated bonding nut makes earthing easier than ever, eliminating separate clamps and the fiddly, time-consuming methods installers have put up with for years.

Why it matters
With gas plumbing, safety is the priority.
All gas lines must be electrically bonded. Using our patent-pending integrated bonding terminal with Flexigas fittings makes bonding simple and easy, removing the need for clamps and the fiddly, time-consuming methods installers have put up with for years.
One terminal, threaded straight onto the fitting. No separate clamp, no bare tube section to find and grip.
How it works
Bonded in four steps.
The bonding terminal is part of the fitting, so the earth connection happens right where you make the joint.
- 1 Attach the bonding nut to the fitting body using the pre-drilled holes.
- 2 Fit the "Safety electrical connection, do not remove" warning label between the terminal and the nut.
- 3 Strip 1 to 2 cm of copper from the earth conductor.
- 4 Screw it down, with the cable running parallel to the tube. Done.
