Introduction to various types of pipes and fittings



Introduction to various types of Pipes and Fittings :-

There are various types of pipes and fittings available for various uses. The pipes fittings are used for various types of connections in the plumbing system. We provide all types of pipes and fittings which will help you manage plumbing system in your house. These best plumbing pipes in India are available at reasonable rates. The following pipes and fittings are available with us.

Elbow pipe fittings

These types of pipes fittings are used to change the direction of water flow. These fittings are fitted between two pipes to change the direction of water flow. We have elbow pipes fittings of 22.5, 45, and 90 degrees. Normal elbows are used if the diameter of the pipes is same as that of elbow otherwise the fittings need to be cut. There are various materials with which these fittings are made and can be fitted into a pipe by welding.

Reducer pipe fittings

This pipe fitting is used to reduce the flowing size of water from larger to smaller and so is the name. We have two types of reducers. The concentric reducer which is a cone shaped reducer reduces the flow gradually but air may be accumulated. The eccentric  reducer has parallel edge to connect and so the air does not accumulate.

Tee type pipe fittings

This pipe fitting is in the shape of letter ‘T’. Water can go in through one inlet and go out through two outlets. Some t-shaped pipe fittings have two inlets and one outlet. We have got both types of this pipe fittings. These fittings are available in various shapes and sizes and made up of various materials.

Cross pipes fittings

In this pipe fitting, there are four directions and four openings. These are used to connect four pipes. This connection produces stress on the pipes because of change in temperature. The fitting is used in fire sprinkler system.

Coupling

 The coupling is a fitting used to connect the pipes of the same diameter. This fitting is best for the place where the pipe is broken and leakage need to be controlled. The two types of couplings that we have are compression coupling and slip coupling. Compression coupling is used to prevent leakage as it is attached with the pipes through gaskets or rubber seals. Slip coupling can be installed easily in comparison to its counterpart.

Unions

The function of this pipe is similar to that of coupling with only a difference that coupling cannot be removed but union can be. There are male and female ended thread  along with nuts.
