uPVC Pipe Fittings

INJECTION MOULDED FITTINGS

Most injection moulded fittings can be supplied ex-stock. Any special fittings required may also be supplied by importing them from reputed manufactures.

FABRICATED FITTINGS

Special fittings manufactured from uPVC or a combination of pipe and sheet material and fabricated by PVC welding techniques may be supplied against specific orders.

LONG RADIUS BENDS AND OTHER SPECIALS

Long radius bends fabricated from uPVC pipes can be supplied at angles of 11 1/4o,22 1/2o, 45o and 90o. Other specials including uPVC Push-Fit (R/R) couplers and repairs couplers may be supplied upon request.


FLOW CHARACTERISTICS

The smooth bore of uPVC pressure pipe offers less resistance to flow than conventional pipes. The pipe wall is resistant to corrosive attacks, and tuberculation or build-up are almost non-existent. This superior performance will enhanced during the life of the uPVC pressure pipiing.

Loss in straight pipes

The Kinematic energy of a fluid flowing in a pipeline decreases with the increasing distance, which is due to the friction between the fluid and the pipe wall. The smoother the inner surface of the pipe, the lesser the friction. This loss of energy is called frictional or head loss and is calculated from the following formula.
