What is the function of pipe fittings？How many materials are there for pipe fittings?

First, what is the role of pipe fitting

Pipe fitting is a common component in the pipeline system. It has many functions, including connection, control, direction changing, shunt, sealing, support, etc., mainly including the following:

1, used for pipe interconnection: such as flange, loose joint, tube hoop, clamp, sleeve, throat hoop, etc.

2, change the direction of the pipe: elbow, bend pipe.

3, change the pipe diameter: reducing diameter (reducing pipe), reducing elbow, branch pipe table, reinforcing pipe.

4, increase the pipeline branch: three, four.

5, used for pipeline sealing: gasket, raw material belt, thread hemp, flange blind plate, tube plug, blind plate, head, welding plug.

6, used for pipeline fixing: clamp ring, tow hook, sling ring, bracket, bracket, pipe clamp, etc.

In general, there are many types of pipe fittings, and the role of different types of pipe fittings is different, but the basic role is the same, that is, the pipe is combined into a pipe system.

Two, there are several materials of pipe fittings

Pipe fittings have many functions, and the materials used in different fields of pipe fittings are also different. What are the main kinds of common pipe fittings materials?

Generally speaking, the material of pipe fittings are mainly cast steel, cast iron, stainless steel, plastic, PVC, rubber, graphite, forged steel, PPR, alloy, PE, ABS, copper, RFPP, etc., mainly according to the needs of the applicable field to choose the appropriate material of pipe fittings, such as the need to use pressure pipe fittings, then use steel pipe fittings.
