Imperial PVC Pipe Fittings & Valves

Imperial PVC Pipe, Fittings and Valves

Imperial PVC pipe, fittings and valves help you replace pipe runs, extend water supplies and build new systems. At PipeTech, we also supply PVC-U pressure pipes and matching fittings for secure joints and smooth fluid flow.

Imperial pipework uses inch-based sizes in water supply, irrigation, farm and industrial systems. PVC-U means unplasticised polyvinyl chloride. Unlike metal, this light material resists rust, so it suits many pipework tasks.

Our range covers pressure pipes, solvent-weld fittings, threaded adaptors and valves. Together, these parts help you build, maintain and repair imperial PVC systems.

Imperial PVC Pressure Pipes

Our imperial PVC pressure pipes come in a range of sizes, pressure classes and lengths. Therefore, you can choose pipes to suit your system's needs.

The range includes Class C, Class D, Class E and Class 7 PVC-U pipes. Also, selected products come in 3-metre and 6-metre lengths. These options help you match pipes to the pressure needs of your system.

Before choosing pipe, check the maker's pressure rating, sizes and working temperature. This applies whether you are upgrading imperial PVC pipework or planning a new system.

Imperial PVC Plain Pipe Fittings

Our imperial PVC plain pipe fittings join pipes in solvent-weld systems. For example, the range includes:

  • 90-degree and 45-degree elbows to change the pipe's direction.
  • Equal tees to create branches.
  • Sockets to join pipe lengths.
  • Reducing bushes to join matching parts of different sizes.
  • Unions, which also let you separate pipe runs.
  • End caps and other useful fittings.

Plain fittings form strong, permanent joints when you use the right solvent cement and prepare the joints correctly. Therefore, follow the correct jointing method for your imperial PVC pipework.

Imperial PVC Threaded Fittings and Adaptors

Some systems need joints you can take apart, for example around pumps, filters, tanks and valves. Our imperial PVC threaded pipe fittings include threaded nipples, plugs, tees and reducing bushes.

We also supply imperial PVC plain-to-threaded fittings, including adaptors, elbows, unions and tank connectors. These join matching solvent-weld pipework to BSP-threaded equipment.

However, always check the thread type and joint sizes before fitting parts to imperial PVC pipework.

Imperial PVC Valves and Flow Control

Valves let you isolate pipe runs or control fluid flow in imperial PVC systems. They also offer rust resistance and ease of use in suitable water-handling and industrial systems.

However, check each valve's joint type, nominal size and pressure rating before you choose it. Also, make sure its seals suit the fluid and working conditions.

Why Choose Imperial PVC-U Pipework?

Lightweight and Rust-Resistant

PVC-U does not rust like steel or cast iron, so it helps reduce upkeep in suitable systems. Its low weight also makes pipes and fittings easier to handle on site. Meanwhile, the smooth bore helps fluid flow through imperial PVC pipework.

PVC-U resists many chemicals, although you must check whether it suits the fluid. The substance, concentration and working temperature all affect this choice.

Uses for Imperial PVC Pipework

Imperial PVC pipe, fittings and valves serve irrigation, water treatment, aquaculture, farm water systems and industrial process pipework. They also help when you repair or extend existing inch-sized systems. Matching the sizes matters because the parts must fit together.

For drinking water, choose imperial PVC pipework products with the right approvals for their use. Also, check each product's WRAS status, as only selected PipeTech products have this approval.

Choosing Imperial PVC Pipe, Fittings and Valves

Check Size, Pressure Class and Joint Type

Before ordering, check the existing pipe size and whether your system uses imperial or metric sizes. However, these systems are not automatically interchangeable.

Next, check the pressure class and working conditions for your imperial PVC pipework. Finally, choose solvent-weld, threaded or union joints to suit the system and its upkeep needs.
