PVC Reducing Tee

PVC Reducing Tee is a professional pipe connector, used where the main pipe needs to branch. It is a type of tee, which is divided into equal diameters and reducing diameters. The characteristic of the reducing tee is that its two ports have different diameters, and the reducing tee made of PVC is made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC). This kind of pipe fitting is widely used in the construction and maintenance of projects in industries such as petrochemicals, oil and gas, liquefied gas, fertilizer, power plants, nuclear power, shipbuilding, papermaking, pharmaceuticals, food hygiene, and urban construction. The use of PVC Reducing Tee enables the main pipeline to smoothly branch to branches of different diameters in the pipeline system of these industries, thereby meeting the needs of various fluid transmissions. PVC is usually chosen because of its good corrosion resistance, low cost, and long service life, and is suitable for a variety of industrial application environments.

Puhui Industry can supply various sizes of PVC Solvent Cement Joint fittings from DN20mm to DN400mm.

PVC Solvent Cement Joint fittings include equal tee, reducer tee, reducer, elbow 45 degrees, Elbow 90 degrees and so on. Can be customized according to requirements, our PVC fittings are high-quality new and unused Polyvinyl chloride raw materials, mainly used in PVC water, drainage, and cable protective systems.

Differences between HDPE and PVC Reducing Tee

Material properties:

The main material of PVC Reducing Tee is polyvinyl chloride (PVC), which has good pressure resistance and a design stress between 10 MPa and 12.5 MPa. PVC materials have average room temperature and low-temperature toughness, good flexibility, and high impact strength, and are suitable for a variety of application scenarios.

HDPE Reducer Tee mainly uses high-density polyethylene (HDPE) material, which has poor pressure resistance and a design stress of 8 MPa, but good flexibility, high impact strength, and resistance to strong earthquakes and distortions. HDPE materials can still maintain good toughness at low temperatures and can be used safely in a temperature range of -60℃ to 60℃.

Construction method:

The construction method of PVC Reducing Tee is relatively simple and does not require electricity, so it has obvious advantages in field construction. Its connection time is about 1/5 of that of HDPE pipe, and the construction speed is fast. ‌

The construction experience of HDPE Reducing Tee is mature, but the connection requires electricity, which is difficult and slow in field construction. ‌

Connection method: ‌

PVC Reducing Tee is usually connected by adhesive or hot melt, which ensures the safety and reliability of the connection. ‌

HDPE Reducing Tee is connected by a hot melt socket and a hot melt butt. The strength of the joint is higher than the strength of the pipe itself, which ensures the safety and reliability of the interface. ‌

Advantages and disadvantages: ‌

The advantage of PVC Reducing Tee is its fast construction speed and simple connection, which is suitable for engineering projects with requirements on construction time. ‌ However, its pressure resistance is slightly lower than that of HDPE. ‌

HDPE Reducing Tee has a place in engineering with its excellent pressure resistance and good low-temperature toughness, especially in occasions where long-term pressure resistance and low-temperature environment are required. ‌ However, its construction speed is slow and has certain requirements for construction conditions.
