PPRC Reducing Socket
A PPRC Reducing Socket is a type of pipe fitting used in plumbing and fluid distribution systems. It is designed to connect two pipes of different diameters while reducing the size of the connection.
Features and Benefits of PPRC Reducing Socket includes :
-
Design : The reducing socket has two openings with different diameters. The larger opening is meant to accommodate a pipe of one size, while the smaller opening is designed to fit a pipe of a smaller size. The two openings are aligned in a straight line.
-
Usage : These fittings are commonly used in plumbing systems where it’s necessary to connect pipes of different sizes securely. For example, when you need to transition from a larger diameter pipe to a smaller one, a PPR reducing socket is used to create a sealed connection.
-
Versatility : PPR reducing sockets are versatile and can be used in various applications, including residential, commercial, and industrial plumbing systems. They are compatible with both hot and cold-water systems, making them suitable for a wide range of plumbing needs.
-
Installation : These fittings are known for their ease of installation. The PPR material can be joined using a heat fusion technique, ensuring a strong and watertight connection. Proper fusion ensures that the joint is as strong as the pipe itself.
-
Benefits : PPR reducing sockets offer several advantages, including resistance to corrosion, scaling, and chemical reactions. They are lightweight, which makes handling and installation easier. Additionally, they are cost-effective and have a long service life, making them a popular choice for plumbing projects.
Sizes Available : 20mm to 90mm
