PVC Waste Water Pipe Fittings

PVC Waste Water Pipe Fittings

PVC drainage pipe fittings are gasketed socket plastic parts used to change direction, take branches and make joints on soil, grey water and rainwater lines.

They are used in vertical and horizontal soil installations inside buildings, bathroom and kitchen waste connections and rainwater downpipes. Parts such as tees and single branches are designed for non-pressure (gravity) flow; sizes and types depend on the model.
