One type of PVC fittings are pipe fittings of PVC (polyvinyl chloride).
They can be used for potable and industrial plumbing. Executed from modern materials – PVC, they are widely used in construction.
PVC fittings are manufactured in accordance with a system of quality control and have all the relevant certificates. Production of PVC has the following properties: reduced flammability and increased chemical stability, low sensitivity to UV radiation.
Numerous studies have shown that the products of PVC are harmful to human health. In the operation of these systems does not occur of toxic compounds. Even with the transportation of drinking water is not changing its flavor.
Currently, there are a large variety of radiant heat equipment, ranging from very simple hand-held devices, designed to bend pipes of small diameter and up to powerful radiant heat maifolds, capable of changing the form of large diameter PVC fittings. Such devices are called benders. Their use leads to significant savings in the pipeline, since reducing the need for the use of different connecting elements. In addition, radiant heat to help cope with this arduous work much faster. These devices are specifically designed for radiant heat PEX, so as a result of bending metal profiles do not suffer from excessive compression, the process is the highest quality. With benders can radiant heat PEX up to 180 degrees, and exactly on the required shape and size. Because the minimum number of breaks in the capacity of the PEX radiant heat points virtually unchanged.
The most powerful are the hydraulic pipe benders, they can be used to achieve maximum productivity. Suffice it to say that some models of hydraulic benders at the site of a bend in the pipe have a pressure of about 10 tons. As the name implies, these devices are based on the use of force hydraulics. A feature of these benders is easy to use – to control the mechanism used specially tuned leverage, allows you to easily control the process.
Outdoor PVC fittings communication include thermal network, PEX plumbing and PVC fittings system. One of the enumeration is enough to understand how important they are for the normal life of any city. They are also required for the townspeople, as refrigeration for storage of perishable products. And just as in the case of refrigerators, the absence of these undoubted benefits of civilization, we are starting to notice, only if there was a malfunction of any of these systems. Radiant heating, plumbing, sewerage – for the implementation of each of these systems need reliable pipe, the quality of which depends on whether the work of engineering services uninterrupted.
Regardless of the technology of manufacturing PEX tubing are resistant to corrosion and looks quite aesthetically pleasing, even without paint, which distinguishes them from the metal pipes. Through the use of PEX tubing during installation of the tubing system achieves great savings. It manifests itself in practically all phases of construction. For transportation of PEX tubing do not need heavy equipment and installation is done quickly enough. When laying pipelines in addition to PVC fittings, tees and other fasteners can be used for welding, which is done using special welding machines.
Polyvinyl chloride – a very good solution for the creation of pipeline systems for drinking water, and for aggressive environments. PVC pipes, PVC fittings and the corresponding valves are all the positive properties of the polymer. In the production of PVC pipes connecting the main polymer with dyes, fillers, lubricants and stabilizers, which are required according to the quality of the final product. Initial polymer mixture and the finished product – PVC pipe fittings conform to all quality standards.
BOW fittings
Specifications of PVC are well known, they include high chemical resistance and high stability of the material. These qualities of PVC pipes and fittings can be used in various industries. PVC pipes are not exposed to the majority of oxides and alkalis, aliphatic hydrocarbons, salts. This explains the longevity of the smooth operation of systems that are based on PVC pipes and fittings.
Canadian Company BOW has all the necessary conditions and production capacity for the production of PVC pipes in accordance with European standards. PVC pressure pipes are available in nominal length of 6 or 5 meters.
The bulk of the pressure pipe grade PVC BOW painted in gray color (RAL 7011). Blue tubes correspond to the standard WIS 4.31.06 and are used for transporting drinking water. Pipes standard KIWA 49 may be cream colored.
Sanding and Cleaning
Sand out the whole area of the damaged PVC pipe sitting inside the portion marks placed in earlier step. Clean up the area sanded with a brush attached to the primer. Apply the glue to the whole area of repair as well as either side of the PVC couplings and put one side from the coupling to the damaged pipe. Snap out the other portion of the coupling onto the first portion.
Wrapping
Wrap the entire masking tape round the PVC fittings in order to keep it in position as the glue dries out completely. Take off the tape once the glue is cured completely.
