PipeTech also supplies PVC-U pressure pipes, solvent-weld fittings and threaded adaptors to help you make secure joints.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMetric PVC-U pipework uses sizes in millimetres for water supply, farm and industrial systems. PVC-U means unplasticised polyvinyl chloride. The material is light and resists rust, while its smooth bore helps fluid flow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur metric PVC range covers simple pipe joints and systems with pumps, tanks and filters. Therefore, you can find parts for both new builds and repairs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eExplore Our Metric PVC Pipe, Fittings and Valves Range\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMetric PVC Pressure Pipes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/pipetech.org.uk\/collections\/metric-pvc-pressure-pipes\"\u003emetric PVC pressure pipes\u003c\/a\u003e come in a range of diameters and pressure ratings. Therefore, you can choose pipes to suit your system's needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe range includes pipes from 16mm to 160mm, with selected options rated up to 16 bar. These metric PVC pipes suit compatible water and fluid systems under pressure. However, the working conditions must stay within the maker's stated limits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen choosing metric PVC pipe, check the outside diameter, pressure rating, temperature and planned use. These checks also help you match the pipe to your fittings and valves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMetric PVC Plain Pipe Fittings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/pipetech.org.uk\/collections\/metric-pvc-plain-pipe-fittings\"\u003emetric PVC plain pipe fittings\u003c\/a\u003e join pipe lengths, change direction and create branches.

They form permanent joints when you use the correct PVC-U solvent cement and prepare each joint correctly. Also, match the fitting diameter to your metric pipe for repairs and new systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMetric PVC Plain-to-Threaded Fittings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot every metric PVC joint needs to be permanent. For example, pumps, filters, valves and tanks often need threaded joints for upkeep or replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/pipetech.org.uk\/collections\/metric-pvc-plain-to-threaded-pipe-fittings\"\u003emetric PVC plain-to-threaded pipe fittings\u003c\/a\u003e include adaptors, elbows, tees, sockets, unions and tank connectors. These parts also join matching metric solvent-weld pipework to BSP-threaded equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMetric PVC threaded fittings help where fixed pipe runs meet equipment that may need service.

Its low weight also makes metric PVC pipe and fittings easier to move, position and fit. Correctly built PVC-U systems generally need little upkeep.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough metric PVC-U resists many chemicals, you must check whether it suits the fluid. The fluid, concentration and working temperature all affect this choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUses for Metric PVC Pipe, Fittings and Valves\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMetric PVC pipework serves irrigation, water treatment, aquaculture, swimming pool filtration and industrial fluid-handling systems.
