UPVC Pipe Fittings

UPVC pipe fittings are a kind of pipe connectors made of UPVC materials, which have the characteristics of light weight, corrosion resistance, and high-temperature resistance. The following will briefly introduce the material characteristics, product manufacturing process, product material usage scenarios, and corresponding standards of UPVC pipe fittings.

Material characteristics 

1. Portable:

UPVC fittings have low density, and the specific gravity is only 1/6 of that of steel pipes, making installation easy and quick.IFAN Facebook Website:www.facebook.com，IFAN factory has 30+ years manufacture experience supporting color /size customization support Free Samples.

2. Corrosion resistance:

UPVC fittings have good resistance to acid, alkali, salt, and other corrosive substances, and are not easy to be corroded and rust.

3. High-temperature resistance:

UPVC fittings can withstand high temperatures, the instantaneous temperature can reach 95 ℃, and it can withstand a temperature of about 60 ℃ when used for a long time, and it is not easy to break.

4. Pressure resistance:

UPVC fittings have strong pressure resistance, and the pressure can reach more than 6MPa.

5. Poor electrical conductivity:

UPVC fittings have extremely poor electrical conductivity, making it safer to use electrical appliances.

6. Environmental protection and health:

UPVC fittings do not contain cadmium, lead, and other harmful substances, and are safe to use.

Production process 

The production process of UPVC pipe fittings includes injection molding, extrusion molding, pressure molding, and other methods. Among them, injection molding is a commonly used process method. The production process is as follows:

1. Melting:

Melt the UPVC material to a liquid state, and add additives such as pigments and stabilizers at the same time.

2. Injection molding:

Inject the molten UPVC material into the injection machine, and shape it into the required pipe fittings through the action of the mold.

3. Adjustment:

Processing, cleaning, and size control of the finished product.

Product material usage scenarios

1. Industrial pipeline:

UPVC fittings are suitable for the transportation of water, gas, oil, acid, and alkali in industrial pipelines.

2. Water pipes:

UPVC fittings can be used in the joints of water pipes, which have the characteristics of preventing scale and pollution.

3. Chemical pipelines:

UPVC fittings can withstand the corrosion of chemicals and are suitable for the connection of chemical pipelines.

4. Agricultural irrigation:

UPVC fittings can be used in agricultural irrigation systems, and have the advantages of anti-ultraviolet and corrosion resistance.

5. Construction engineering:

UPVC fittings are suitable for drainage pipes and other piping connections in construction engineering, such as cable pipes, heating pipes, etc.

Corresponding standards 

UPVC fittings need to comply with relevant national standards, including GB/T10002.1-2006 “Plastic Fittings – Part 1: Dimensional Quality Requirements, Inspection and Marking”, GB/T18742.2-2002 “Polyvinyl Chloride (UPVC) Pipes and Fittings – Part 2: Fittings” and other standards. At the same time, it is also necessary to meet relevant standards and industry standards in various places to ensure safe and effective use.

In short, UPVC pipe fittings have the characteristics of lightness, corrosion resistance, and high-temperature resistance, and are widely used in industries, tap water, chemicals, agricultural irrigation, and construction engineering. The manufacturing process of UPVC pipe fittings includes various methods such as injection molding, extrusion molding, and pressure molding, and needs to meet relevant national standards and industry standards.
