Simple tips about PP-R Pipe and Fittings
Jan. 03, 2023
Introduction
PP-R pipe has been widely used since its creation in the early 1990s because of its dependability, affordability, and extended service life. The use of PP-R Pipe has increased over the past few years. PP-R Pipes are among the most popular on the market thanks to its ecological and financial advantages.PP-R pipes are frequently utilized in residential construction. Additionally, it is utilized in water transfer, alkaline and acidic solutions, sanitary fluids, and compressed air.
We'll go through the fundamentals of PP-R pipe and fittings in this article, and you're welcome to share and forward it if you find it could be of help.

What is PP-R pipe
PP-R pipe is a straight and rigid cylindrical pipe, made from Polypropylene Random Copolymer plastic, produced through a continuous extrusion process. Most PP-R pipes have a diameter of 20mm to 110mm. This means that the PP-R pipe is thicker than its PVC companions. In addition to that, PP-R pipes feature a network of fittings, accessories, and parts. These accessories are available for each PP-R pipe diameter.?

What is PP-R Fittings
Typically, PP-R pipe and fittings are used in the creation of cold and hot water systems. The ideal alternative for cold and hot water systems is PP-R pipe because it can resist both hot and cold temperatures without breaking or cracking. Additionally, due to their low thermal conductivity, the fluids will maintain the necessary temperature.
The preferred choice for releasing chemical fluids, including industrial waste, is PP-R fittings. Due to its resistance to powerful chemicals and alkaline solutions, PP-R piping is the best pipe fitting for industries.

?- Type of PP-R fitting
RIFENG mass flow PP-R series,made out of superior polypropylene random, is the common fittings at present market in weight and size. Due to their various functions, those series PP-R fittings can be utilized in a variety of water solutions projects.# SWEEP JUNCTION
- Reducing 50% of the water resistance.
- Reliable structure with a strengthening rib.
- Easier assembly with the directional mark.
?
# LARGE ARC ELBOW
- Reducing 50% of the water resistance,with twice the arc,the water flow impact pressure wave is scattered and disappeared by the curved surface.Meanwhile it avoids striking the fitting directly and causing damages.
#?U-PROFILE TAP ELBOW
- New U-profile tap elbow perfectly fits into hygience oriented and water flow rate optimized installations using different loop installation methods.
- Improved profile design allowing better flow rate.
- Simpler and more flexible installation.
#?GATE VALVE
- Full diameter,water flow increases by 200%.
- Three NBR seal rings to prevent leakage.
- High-quality brass of the valve spool,which makes it more durable.
