Polyethylene fittings are fittings produced from HDPE and LDPE raw materials in various shapes and sizes and with various functions. LDPE and HDPE are materials derived from polyethylene. They are the auxiliary parts that connect to the main machine and pipes or connect them with other machines and pipes. Although referred to as an aid, they are indispensable parts during application. Thanks to the structure of polyethylene, it has provided great convenience in the industrial field. In addition, it has become an indispensable item because it is cheaper and lighter than other alternatives.
These parts, which are needed and necessary in providing liquid and gas flow, are the elements that must be used during the processes. Because without fittings, pipes cannot be connected to each other. Again, without fittings, it is not possible to incline the pipes at the desired angles during the connection of the pipes and pipelines. Thanks to these fittings, new directions can be created for the pipes in the pipelines, and sharp turns can be created in the lines.
Polyethylene types and polyethylene inserts cannot be glued or combined with the help of an adhesive in terms of structure. They can only be combined by welding methods. As an example of these welding methods; Butt welding method and electrofusion butt welding method can be given.
Polyethylene fittings include sleeve, elbow, tee, reducer, flange adapter etc. countable. In our company, you can find every additional piece you will need in any angle and size you want.
What is Polyethylene?
polyethylene material
Polyethylene is a raw material produced from petroleum. It was first produced accidentally in 1933. Polyethylene, which was not in its current form when it was first produced, is an improved and improved raw material as it is used over the years.
The first commercially produced product of polyethylene was LDPE. LDPE is “low-density polyethylene”. It can be translated into Turkish as low pressure polyethylene. Later, HDPE was produced from polyethylene and started to gain ground in the market. HDPE is “high-density polyethlene”. It can be translated into Turkish as high pressure polyethylene.
Polyethylene absorbs very little water. It is a solid item. It is durable and has dimensional stability. It is a very good gas blocker. It is resistant to chemicals such as acid, oil, grease. Easy melting, flowing etc. do not do.
One of the most important features of polyethylene is that it is a moldable product. Polyethylene is a moldable, shaped product. With this item, you can make any additional piece you want and give it the slopes you want. With this feature, polyethylene has become an indispensable material in the production of fittings.
Polyethylene is more flexible, more durable, lighter and more economical than other alternatives in the production of pipes and fittings. Thanks to these features, it has been used more and more in the market day by day and has expanded its usage area.
Where is Polyethylene Used?
Polyethylene has a wide range of uses. Polyethylene is a compatible material that can be used almost anywhere you can think of. It is used in the production of plastic bottles, pipes, coatings, fittings, etc. used. Since polyethylene is a light material, it has begun to attract attention in the heavy machinery industry and is preferred over other alternatives.
Polyethylene Fitting Types
Polyethylene is a very successful material from a mechanical point of view. For this reason, it is a popular raw material that is very preferred in the industrial field. Polyethylene fittings can be classified according to their usage areas.
Electrofusion Fittings
Electrofusion is the method of joining the surfaces to be welded by heating in the melting temperature range by means of electric current. Electrofusion fittings; PP EF equal 90°, PP EF inegal 90°, PP EF elbow 45°, PP EF elbow 90°, PP EF cap (blind plug), PP EF sleeve, PP EF reduction, PP EF service 360°, PP In service with EF valves, they can be exemplified as PP EF saddles. They are located between polyethylene fittings.
Injection Fittings
Plastic injection is a plastic part production method. Since this production method is very suitable for mass production, it has been and continues to be widely preferred in the sector. With this method, parts of various sizes and categories can be produced, from the smallest elements to defense industry products. The injection method is low cost. It is suitable for automation, does not need a post-processing process, and is suitable for fast production. With this method, different surfaces, shapes and colors can be produced. In addition, very little material is lost during production.
Injection inserts; PP elbow 45°, PP elbow 90°, PP equal 90°, PP fork 45°, PP cross 90°, PP inegal 90°, PP reduction, PP short step reduction, PP short type reducer, PP flange adapter can be exemplified. They are located between polyethylene fittings.
Metal Transitions
Metal transitions; PP metal external threaded transition, PP metal internal threaded transition, PP steel welded transition, steel flange, PP coated steel flange, steel blind flange
can be exemplified. They are located between polyethylene fittings.
Garment Fittings
Garment attachments; PP elbow 11-30°, PP elbow 45°, PP elbow 60°, PP elbow 90°, PP straight 90°, PP inegal, PP fork 45°, PP cross 90°, PP inegal cross 90° They can be exemplified as PP concrete transition adapters. They are located between polyethylene fittings.
