Avonplast UPVC Tee 3/4″ 90 Degree

The Avonplast UPVC Tee with a 20mm diameter and 90-degree angle is a component used in UPVC (Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride) piping systems. Here’s an overview of its features and functions:

1. Material: Constructed from UPVC, a rigid and durable type of plastic known for its resistance to corrosion, chemicals, and sunlight. UPVC is commonly used in plumbing and irrigation systems for both indoor and outdoor applications.
2. Size: The tee is designed to accommodate UPVC pipes with a diameter of 20mm (approximately 3/4 inch). It typically features solvent weld ends for secure and leak-free connections to UPVC pipes of the same size.
3. Design: The tee fitting has a T-shaped design, with one inlet and two outlets arranged at 90-degree angles. This configuration allows for the connection of three pipes at a right angle, facilitating the branching of fluid flow in UPVC piping systems.
4. Solvent Welding: Installation of the tee involves solvent welding, a process where UPVC solvent cement is applied to both the outside of the pipes and the inside of the fittings. When the pipes are inserted into the fittings, the cement forms a chemical bond that fuses the components together, creating a secure and leak-free seal.
5. Corrosion Resistance: Thanks to its UPVC construction, the tee offers excellent resistance to corrosion and chemical degradation, making it suitable for use in environments where exposure to corrosive substances is a concern.
6. Applications: UPVC tees are widely used in plumbing, irrigation, and drainage systems for residential, commercial, and industrial applications. They allow for the creation of branch connections in piping networks, enabling the distribution of fluid flow in multiple directions.

In summary, the Avonplast UPVC Tee with a 20mm diameter and 90-degree angle provides a reliable and corrosion-resistant solution for creating branch connections in UPVC piping systems. It is suitable for various applications where durability, chemical resistance, and ease of installation are essential considerations.
