PPRC Weld-End Conical Unions
A PPR weld union is a fitting with both ends welded to PP-R pipe that lets the line be dismantled by opening the nut in the middle.
It is used to create maintenance points in front of pumps, filters and devices and on PP-R lines in boiler rooms. It is supplied from Ø20 to Ø90 mm.
Main Applications
- Pump and booster set maintenance points
- Filter and treatment unit separation
- PP-R lines in boiler rooms
- Manifold connections
- Meter groups
