Reducing sleeve KZ/KW PVC-C 1 1/2x1 1/4" 4718-212

PVC-C Reducing Sleeve – Reliable Connection in Installations

The reducing sleeve made of chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (PVC-C) is a connecting element for pipes of different diameters, ensuring the tightness and durability of the installation. The KZ/KW model with dimensions 1 1/2” x 1 1/4” is intended for hot and cold water systems, air conditioning, and industrial applications where resistance to various chemical compounds is required. Made of CPVC material, it is characterized by high strength and a long service life, estimated at a minimum of 50 years.

Construction and practical application

The reducing sleeve is used to change the pipe diameter in the installation, allowing connection of elements with different dimensions. Made of PVC-C, it provides resistance to corrosion, scale and dirt build-up, which translates into trouble-free operation of the system for a long time. The glued connection guarantees tightness and minimizes the risk of leaks. The outer diameter of the sleeve is 41.3 mm. It is an ideal solution for both professional installers and end-users looking for a reliable element for building or modernizing a water installation.

Key features and benefits

• Durability: PVC-C material ensures the longevity of the installation – even up to 50 years of trouble-free operation.
• Chemical resistance: The sleeve is resistant to the action of several hundred chemical compounds, making it ideal for industrial applications.
• No deposits: Smooth inner surface minimizes scale and dirt build-up, maintaining optimal water flow.
• Easy installation: The glued connection does not require specialized tools or skills – installation is quick and safe.
• Insulation: High thermal insulation reduces heat loss and prevents condensation of water vapor on cold water pipes.
• Damping properties: PVC-C material dampens vibrations and noise, ensuring quiet operation of the installation.
• Lightweight: Compared to traditional materials (steel, copper), PVC-C is much lighter, making it easier to transport and install.
• Full bore flow: The design of the reducing sleeve minimizes local flow resistance, ensuring optimal water flow throughout the installation.
• Fire resistance: PVC-C does not support the combustion process, increasing safety of use.
• Electrical insulation: No galvanic or electrochemical corrosion – particularly important in installations laid in the ground.
