Avonplast UPVC 1-1/2″ Tee

The Avonplast UPVC 1-1/2″ Tee is a vital component in UPVC (Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride) piping systems, facilitating the branching of pipelines while maintaining fluid flow. Here’s a description of its key features and functions:

• Material: Constructed from UPVC, a rigid and durable plastic renowned for its resistance to corrosion, chemicals, and abrasion. This material ensures longevity and reliability in various plumbing applications.
• Design: The Tee fitting features three sockets, with one socket positioned at a 90-degree angle to the other two. This design allows for the connection of three pipes at right angles to one another, enabling branching in plumbing systems.
• Function: The primary purpose of the Tee is to provide a junction point in a piping system where fluid flow can be redirected in two directions perpendicular to the main flow. It allows for the distribution of fluids to multiple outlets or the convergence of flows from different sources.
• Installation: To install the Tee, UPVC pipes with compatible nominal diameters are inserted into the sockets on each end of the Tee. Solvent cement is then applied to the pipe ends and the inside of the sockets, and the pipes are firmly pushed into place. This creates a solvent-welded joint that is secure and leak-proof.
• Applications: Suitable for a wide range of applications in residential, commercial, and industrial plumbing systems where UPVC piping is used. Common applications include water supply systems, irrigation systems, swimming pools, and more.
• Size: Designed to accommodate UPVC pipes with a nominal diameter of 1-1/2 inches, ensuring compatibility with standard-sized pipes and fittings commonly used in UPVC plumbing installations.
• Corrosion Resistance: The UPVC material provides excellent resistance to corrosion, rust, and chemical degradation, ensuring long-term performance and reliability even in harsh environments.

The Avonplast UPVC 1-1/2″ Tee offers reliable and durable performance, making it an essential component for branching pipelines and facilitating fluid flow redirection in UPVC piping systems. Its robust construction and corrosion-resistant properties make it suitable for various plumbing applications.
