Tees

The PVC Tee is a 3-end fitting. Two on a straight line and one on the side at a 90-degree angle. A tee allows him to split the line into two separate lines with a 90-degree connection. A tee can also connect two lines to one main line. It is also often used in PVC construction. A tee is a very versatile fitting that is one of the most common types of PVC pipe fittings that are used in plumbing. Most tees have socket ends, but threaded versions are also available.

Elbow

If the piping system is to be twisted or bypassed along the way, the piping must be bent with its PVC bends. Elbows are most commonly available in 90-degree and 45-degree angles, allowing you to orient your pipe any way you like. Side bends are a slightly different part and are often used as corners in projects such as canopies, tents, displays, and crates. They have three ends instead of two. Most elbows have socket ends, but threaded versions are also available.

Cross

A cross is a somewhat unusual type of PVC pipe fitting that connects four sections of pipe. It has four sliding joints (S x S x S x S) that meet at 90-degree angles to form a “plus” shape. PVC cross fittings are commonly used when building frames out of PVC pipes. Crosses can add a lot of structural integrity to a framework. It can also be used to split the liquid flow into different directions.

Coupling And Connection

Couplings are one of the simplest (and cheapest) types of PVC pipe fittings. They are small parts that connect or “join” one part to another and are usually used permanently. You can connect pipes to pipes and pipes to fittings. Some of them can shrink and connect smaller pipes to larger ones and vice versa. Couplings are available with slip or internally threaded ends as required. Connections connect things like couplings, but they are not permanent solutions that can be easily taken apart. PVC connectors are commonly used to build temporary structures such as tent supports, which can be dismantled when the structure is no longer needed. There is a ring in the middle that separates the two ends for easy disassembly and maintenance.

Cap And Plug

The cap have a very simple job: stop the flow. They are placed at the end of a pipeline that doesn’t need to connect to another pipe. You can stop pipelines that grow later, or make your system easily accessible when you need it. It can also give pipes in PVC construction projects a finished look.

PVC Pipe Fittings

A plug is similar to a cap, but instead of stopping flow in a pipe, it stops flow in a fitting. Due to this, the plug goes into the fitting. This means it has either a spigot or an external thread.

Adapter (Female And Male)

Adapters, sometimes called reducing couplings, are versatile. These PVC pipe fittings are designed to change the pipe end type to work with different sizes of PVC pipes and fittings. They can have threaded or socket ends to connect to an endless variety of PVC pipes and fittings. Adapters are either male or female, socket or spigot.
