UPVC Brass Male Union

A uPVC Brass Male Union is a hybrid plumbing fitting used to connect a plastic (uPVC) pipe to a metal pipe or component with a female thread, featuring a union design that allows for easy disconnection for maintenance. It features a uPVC solvent-weld socket on one end and a brass male BSP thread on the other, designed for high pressure (up to 16 bar) in cold water applications. Key Features and Specifications: Material: Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride (uPVC) body with a high-grade brass male threaded insert. Connection Type: One end is solvent cemented (glued) to uPVC pipe, while the other is a threaded metal connection. Function: Combines a strong plastic pipe connection with the durability of a metal thread, allowing for easy, tool-free breaking of the joint. Working Temp & Pressure: Suitable for cold water, typically operating between +5°C to +60°C and rated for 16 bar (PN16). Applications: Ideal for residential/industrial plumbing, water, and sewage systems where pipe-to-metal transitions are required. Chemical Resistance: Highly resistant to acids, alkalis, and corrosion. These fittings are widely used to connect valves, pumps, or other metal components to uPVC pipes, providing a secure, leak-proof, and corrosion-resistant joint.
