CPVC Socket
The CPVC Socket is a precision-molded pipe fitting used to connect two CPVC pipes of the same diameter in a straight line. It provides a secure, leak-proof joint through solvent welding, making it an essential component in CPVC piping systems for hot and cold water distribution and industrial fluid handling. Manufactured from high-quality Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride (CPVC), the socket offers exceptional thermal stability and chemical resistance, ensuring reliable performance in demanding applications.
A CPVC Socket is used to join two CPVC pipes of the same diameter in a straight line. It has socket ends on both sides, allowing pipes to be connected using solvent cement, which forms a strong and leak-proof joint. CPVC sockets are commonly used in hot and cold water systems, industrial piping, and chemical processing pipelines because CPVC material provides excellent corrosion resistance, chemical resistance, and high temperature durability.
