Platic D Joint Black Long

Key Features and Specifications

Material: Primarily manufactured from virgin polypropylene (PP) or high-density polyethylene (HDPE), chosen for its strength, durability, and resistance to corrosion and chemicals. The black color often indicates added UV resistance, making it suitable for outdoor use.
Design: It is a type of pipe coupler or fitting, sometimes referred to as a double socket bend, with a shape that resembles the letter 'D' in cross-section or when viewed from the side. The "long" version is designed to offer extended surface contact for better alignment and a more secure connection.
Connection Type: Connections are often made using mechanical couplings, compression sealing, or solvent bonding (for PVC variants), providing a leak-proof seal. They can feature female or male ends, designed to slide over or into the corresponding pipe ends.
Durability: These joints are built to withstand high impact, a range of temperatures (e.g., -40°C to 60°C for HDPE), and working pressures, with a potential service life of up to 50 years for quality products.
Sizes: Available in a wide range of sizes, commonly from 63 mm to 250 mm (2 inches to 10 inches) in diameter, to accommodate various piping requirements.
