PVC Fittings

PVC and CPVC fittings connect rigid plastic pipe by solvent cement or threads. Standard PVC suits cold water, drainage, waste and vent; CPVC handles higher temperatures. They are lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and widely used in residential supply and DWV systems.

⚠️ Note: Standard PVC is not rated for hot water — use CPVC for hot service. Solvent cement must match the material and requires proper cure time before pressurizing.

Typical specification

Property	Typical value
Material	PVC-U (rigid PVC); CPVC for hot service
Types	Elbow, tee, coupling, reducer, cap, union, trap, threaded adapter
Common sizes	Typically ~1/2"-6" or DN15-DN160 — varies by range
Connection method	Solvent cement (solvent weld); threaded (BSP/NPT); some push-fit
Pressure class	Pressure fittings rated by schedule/PN; DWV is non-pressure
Temperature	PVC for cold; CPVC for hot water — confirm rating
Standard	Commonly ASTM D2466/D2467, EN 1329/1401, DIN — confirm

Indicative / typical values for planning — actual products vary by manufacturer and standard. Confirm the final spec sheet before ordering; we do not publish fixed prices, request a quote for current offers.

Applications

Cold-water supply, drain-waste-vent (DWV), irrigation, and pool/utility lines; CPVC for hot and cold potable water.

FAQ

What is the difference between PVC and CPVC fittings?

CPVC is chlorinated PVC rated for higher temperatures, so it is used for hot water; standard PVC is generally limited to cold water and drainage. Confirm the temperature rating on the datasheet.

How are PVC fittings joined?

Most are solvent-cemented (solvent welded) with a primer and cement suited to the material; some use threaded or push-fit ends. Use cement matched to PVC or CPVC.
