UPVC Plumbing Fitting For Water

Introduction

PVC pipe fitting are essential components used in plumbing and various other applications to connect, branch, or terminate PVC pipes. Made from high-quality PVC material, these fittings offer exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and flexibility.

Determining the quality of UPVC fittings can be considered in the following aspects:

Appearance quality

First observe the appearance of the pipe fitting. High quality UPVC fittings should be milky and uniform in color. The inner and outer walls are smooth and flat, no bubbles, no dents, no damage, no color difference. If the pipe color is not uniform, there are surface defects or damage, then it may be a poor quality product.

Material quality

UPVC fittings should be made of high quality polyvinyl chloride raw materials. The quality of the material can be checked by hand kneading the pipe. The hardness of real materials is higher, while fake materials are usually softer and easy to leave marks after bending. In addition, you can also view the quality inspection report of the product. Understand whether the material composition and quality meet the standards.

Size specification

Check whether the size specifications of pipe fittings meet the national standards. The outer diameter and inner diameter of the regular UPVC pipe fittings should be in line with the standard, and the wall thickness should also meet the specified requirements. If the size does not meet the standard, it may affect the use effect and safety of the pipe fitting.

Toughness and ductility

High quality UPVC pipe fittings should have good toughness and ductility. The toughness of pipe fittings can be tested by throwing them to the ground or stepping on them. Good quality pipe fittings will generally be flat and will not break. At the same time, the two ends of the pipe fittings are forced inward, and the good quality pipe fittings will not be easily bent. Poor quality fittings may crack or break.

Voltage resistance

UPVC pipe fittings should have good pressure resistance. The ability to withstand pressure can be tested by the method of heavy weight test. Secure both ends of the pipe fitting and hang weights. Observe whether the pipe fittings can withstand a certain pressure without cracking or deformation.

Branding and certification

Choose well-known brands and certified UPVC fittings. Can improve product quality and safety. Access to relevant product certification certificates and quality inspection reports. Understand whether the quality and performance of the product meet the standards.

To sum up, determining the quality of UPVC pipe fittings requires comprehensive consideration of appearance quality, material quality, size specifications, toughness and ductility, pressure resistance, as well as brand and certification. In the process of purchase and use, it is recommended to choose regular brands and channels. Follow the relevant installation and use instructions to ensure the quality and safety of the product.
