[PPF1008] PVC Pressure Socket Union

PVC Pressure Socket Union

The PVC Pressure Socket Union is a solvent-weld fitting designed to join two lengths of PVC pressure pipe, while allowing the connection to be dismantled and reassembled if needed, unlike a standard fixed coupling.

Made from PVC-U, each end of the union features a solvent-weld socket, permanently bonded to the pipe using standard PVC solvent cement. The two fitting halves are then joined using a screw nut with a seal ring between them, allowing the joint itself to be undone and reconnected without cutting the pipe, useful for maintenance, servicing, or retrofitting equipment into an existing line.

It's suitable for the conveyance of potable water, sewer mains, agricultural irrigation, and industrial effluent applications, with a maximum operating temperature of 60°C. Available in 15mm, 20mm, 25mm, 32mm, 40mm, and 50mm sizes, this fitting carries a maximum allowable working pressure of 1800kPa (PN18) across this size range. Manufactured to comply with Australian and New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 1477, and Watermark certified, this fitting is designed for dependable, long-term performance in pressure pipe applications.

Important: PVC pressure fittings are not compatible with drainage, stormwater, or drain, waste and vent (DWV) pipe systems.
