Frequently Asked Questions
What are PVC pipe connectors?
PVC pipe connectors are the joint sections of a PVC pipe. A pipe connector is a fitting used in various ways, such as changing the direction of the whole pipe, splitting the pipe into multiple lines, or creating a reduction in pipe size.
What are the different types of PVC pipe connectors?
Among many other parts, the most common types are elbow, tee, coupling, union, bushing, cap, and plug. The elbow changes the direction of the flow, and the tee divides a pipe into many lines. The other fittings can be used to connect different sizes of pipes.
How are PVC pipe connectors installed?
PVC pipe connectors are typically installed using either adhesive (PVC cement) or threaded connections. For adhesive-based connectors, start by ensuring that both the pipe and connector are of the correct size and match. Apply the PVC cement to both the outside of the pipe and the inside of the connector. Firmly press the connector onto the pipe and hold it for a few moments to allow for an initial bond. If the cement doesn’t set quickly, it’s best to let the connection dry for several hours, or overnight, to ensure a strong, leak-proof bond. The result will be a secure connection that prevents water or gas leaks.
What are the advantages of using PVC pipe connectors?
PVC pipe connectors are advantageous due to their light weight, easy installation, resistance to relegation and chemical use, and the fact that PVC piping has a high flow rate. The cost of PVC is also a large factor, as PVC has a very long life cycle.
Can PVC pipe connectors be installed outside?
Yes, they can. However, using certain types of PVC outdoors for long periods of time may make them brittle. This would become a safety concern, as the pipes may crack or split. In order to maintain the safety of the installation, paint the pipe or shield them from the sun. Since PVC pipes do not corrode, rust, or react to ultraviolet light, problems should not be found.
