Material: Made from premium-grade Polypropylene (PP), a durable thermoplastic known for high impact resistance and mechanical strength.
Color: The Black finish is typically achieved by adding carbon black, which provides essential UV resistance for outdoor and exposed agricultural applications.
Corrosion Resistance: It is immune to rust and highly resistant to chemicals, moisture, and environmental degradation, making it suitable for industrial fluid transfer.
Leak-Proof Seal: Includes an internal rubber gasket (often EPDM or Nitrile) to ensure a watertight and secure connection.
Technical Specifications
Size Range: Available for pipe diameters typically ranging from 32mm to 315mm (1" to 12").
Outlet Options: Standard threaded outlets (BSP) usually come in sizes like 1/2", 3/4", or 1". These may feature reinforced brass inserts or be purely plastic.
Pressure Rating: Generally rated for working pressures of 10 bar (PN10) to 16 bar (PN16).
Temperature Range: Typically handles fluid temperatures up to 70°C to 80°C.
Applications
Agriculture & Irrigation: Creating branch lines for drip irrigation or sprinkler systems.
Water Supply: Connecting residential or commercial service lines to main water distribution networks.
Industrial Piping: Adding branch connections for chemical or fluid transfer in manufacturing plants.
