Threaded socket KW/male thread PVC-U 1 1/4" 436-012

Universal connector for glued and threaded connections

This connector with a screw-in thread, made of durable PVC-U, is a reliable solution for connecting glued elements with threaded elements. It is a key component in water, air conditioning and industrial installations where durability and corrosion resistance are required. Use in PVC systems allows for the construction of efficient and safe installations.

Construction and application

The connector has a tapered external thread (NPT) with a diameter of 1 1/4 inch (32 mm) on one side and a glued socket on the other. This construction allows for flexible adaptation to different installation configurations. The simple shape of the connector facilitates assembly and minimizes flow resistance. The PVC-U material provides resistance to many chemical compounds, making it ideal for industrial applications.

The connector is used in:

• Cold water installations – ensures safe transport of drinking water.
• Air conditioning installations – resistance to weather conditions and corrosion.
• Industrial installations – possibility of use with various chemical substances (taking into account temperature limitations).
• Modernization of existing installations – easy connection with elements of different construction.

Key features and benefits

Using this connector translates into a number of benefits for both the installer and the end user:

• Durability: Made of high-quality PVC-U, guarantees long-term use, estimated at a minimum of 50 years.
• Chemical resistance: Protects against the action of many chemical compounds, which is particularly important in industrial installations.
• Easy installation: Glued connection is quick and easy, does not require specialized tools or skills. The thread allows for easy tightening by hand or with a wrench.
• Tightness: Ensures a tight connection, minimizing the risk of leaks and water loss.
• Biological inertness: Does not affect the quality of the transported liquid, which is important in drinking water installations.
• Insulating properties: PVC-U is characterized by good thermal insulation, which reduces heat loss and prevents condensation of water vapor.
• Low weight: Compared to traditional materials (steel, copper), PVC-U is much lighter, making it easier to transport and install.
• Smooth inner surface: Reduces flow resistance, increasing installation efficiency.

Remember to maintain the appropriate operating temperature (maximum 45°C) and working pressure (depending on the pipe diameter and PN-EN 1452 or ASTM Sch 40 standard). By choosing this connector, you are investing in a reliable and durable solution for your installation!
