Introduction
What is CPVC pipe fitting?
CPVC or Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride pipe fittings are manufactured using CPVC compounded material. It is one of the most strong and long-lasting materials utilized in piping applications for over 50 years now.
CPVC is resistant to most aggressive chemicals and can withstand high temperature and pressure, consequently making it an ideal material for residential, commercial, and industrial piping and fire sprinkler applications.
CPVC Pipe Fitting Based on Jointing
Solvent Jointed CPVC Pipe Fitting
CPVC Pipe Fitting Plain like Tee, Elbow, Socket & End Cap join with the help of CPVC solvent cement.
Threaded Joint CPVC Pipe Fitting
It is a mechanical jointing between male & female Plastic/Brass Threaded CPVC Pipe fitting. In this case only teflon tape to be used as a thread sealant.
Applications of CPVC pipe fittings
Water Supply
CPVC pipe fittings are ideal for hot and cold water distribution in residential and industrial projects. They are used to carry drinking water and food liquids and are also used in water treatment plant
Chemical
CPVC pipe fittings are used in industrial plumbing for chemicals. They are used in the transportation of chemicals and hot corrosive fluids that includes a wide range of inorganic acids, bases used in chemical processing.
Fire Sprinkler
CPVC pipe fittings are widely used for fire sprinkler applications also.
CPVC Fittings Sizes & Specifications
CPVC pipe and fittings are available in CTS (Copper Tube Sizes) in sizes 1/2″ through 2″ while the Schedule 40 and Schedule 80 CPVC pipe and fittings are available in IPS (Iron Pipe Size) in sizes 2½ and larger for commercial applications like multi-story installations. CPVC pipe is available in 3mtr. & 5mtr. length in the market.

TYPES OF CPVC FITTINGS
PLAIN PIPE FITTINGS
Plain pipe fittings are like CPVC Tee,CPVC Elbow, CPVC Socket, & CPVC End cap
THREADED PIPE FITTINGS
Threaded pipe fittings are like CPVC MTA and CPVC FTA.
TRANSITION PIPE FITTINGS
Transition pipe fittings like Brass Tee, Brass MTA, Brass FTA, and Brass Elbow.
UNION
It’s a combination of threaded adaptor, plain adaptor & threaded ring. The basic function of a union is to connect two pipes, the same like a socket & the basic difference is, socket joint is a kind of permanent joint & the union is designed to be easily removed at any time.
VALVES
The most common feature of valves is to control the flow. Most common valves are like Ball valve & concealed valve used in piping systems.
FLANGE
Flange joint is a method of connecting pipes, valves, pumps & other equipment to form a piping system. It also provides easy access for cleaning. Flange joints are made by bolting together two flanges with a gasket between them to provide seal.
TANK NIPPLE
Tank nipples with both end or one end thread usually connects the whole piping system with the overhead tank.
