Polyethylene End Cap Fitting
One of the most important fittings in piping systems with polyethylene pipes is the polyethylene end cap. This fitting allows the end of the polyethylene pipe to be closed.
End Cap Fitting Specifications
- High Resistance: It is resistant to corrosion, UV rays and pressure up to 10 bar.
- Easy Installation: It can be installed easily and without special tools.
- Proper Sealing: It creates a proper sealing system between the polyethylene pipe and any threaded fitting.
- Long Lifetime: Due to the polypropylene material, the fitting has a long life.
- Resistance to Chemicals: This fitting is resistant to most acids and chemical fertilizers.
Applications of polyethylene end cap fitting
This fitting is used to close the end of polyethylene piping networks and is used in irrigation networks and industries.
Benefits of using polyethylene end cap fitting
- Speed and ease of installation: Since this type of fitting does not require welding, its installation is very fast and easy.
- Low cost: The end cap fitting is installed in less time and costs less than other connection methods.
- Light weight: The lightness of this fitting, in addition to making it easy to transport and maintain, also makes it easy to install.
Connection components of end cap
Connection components: The polyethylene end cap has components on one side, each of which has a function, and their correct arrangement and shape ensure accurate fitting. These components include: fitting body, sealing ring, split ring bushing, and fitting screw.
The order of these components is shown in the figure below:
Important points when installing end cap
- Tightening the nut: The end cap nut must be tightened sufficiently to prevent leakage.
- Arrangement: Observing the order of the fitting components is the main condition for the tightness of the end cap fitting.
