Applications of pipe fittings

There is no end to applications of pipe fittings so long there is no end to the applications of pipes . While the list of Piping Applications continues to expand, its strength, flexibility, very good flow rates and high chemical resistance are qualities which are uniquely suited for the movement or transfer of liquids, steam, solids and air from one point to another. With piping, pipe fittings have many other uses like as follows:
The transfer of extremely hazardous materials such as chemical and waste.
Protection of sensitive equipment from high pressures.
Protection from corrosion and other extreme weather conditions.
Resistance to household and industrial chemicals.
Considering the various purposes of pipe fittings, these pipe fittings are used in various industries like:
Chemical / Petrochemical
Municipal
Food, Beverage, and Dairy
Oil and Gas
Power
Process Instrumentation
Pulp and Paper
Semiconductor
Marine & dredging
Sanitation
Irrigation
Residential
Road & highway construction
Ventilation etc.
In all the above-mentioned industries pipes are used to transfer liquid, gas, slurries, and other solids and fluids from one area to another and accordingly different categories of pipe fittings are used . Thus, pipe fittings play a vital role for proper functioning of pipe and tubes in various applications.
