Components of Plastic Pressure Pipe Systems
Pipes, fittings, valves, and accessories make up a plastic pressure pipe system. The range of pipe diameters for each pipe system does vary. However, the size ranges from 12 to 400 mm (0.472 to 15.748 in) and 3⁄8 to 16 in (9.53 to 406.40 mm).Ball Valves
Pipes are extruded and are generally available in: 3 m (9.84 ft),4 m (13.12 ft), 5 m (16.40 ft), and 6 m (19.69 ft) straight lengths and 25 m (82.02 ft), 50 m (164.04 ft), 100 m (328.08 ft), and 200 m (656.17 ft) coils for LDPE and MDPE
Pipe fittings are moulded and come in many sizes: Tee 90° equal (straight and reducing), Tee 45°, Cross equal, Elbow 90° (straight and reducing), Elbow 45°, Short Radius Bend 90° Socket/coupler (straight and reducing), Union, End Caps, Reducing Bush, and Stub, Full face, and blanking flanges.Butterfly Valves
Valves are moulded and also come in many types: Ball Valve (also multiport), Butterfly valve, spring-, ball-, and swing-check non-return valves, Diaphragm valve, Knife Gate Valve, Globe Valve and Pressure Relief/Reduction Valves
Accessories are solvents, cleaners, glues, clips, backing rings, and gaskets
