Important: Imperial PVC pipe sizes are nominal. For example, 2" imperial PVC pipe has an outside diameter of 60.3 mm, not 50.8 mm. BSP thread dimensions are also different from imperial PVC pipe outside diameters. Always confirm the correct pipe and thread sizes before ordering.
Installation & Compatibility
Plain socket connections are designed for solvent welding to compatible imperial PVC pressure pipe using suitable PVC solvent cement and cleaner. Plain spigot connections are designed to fit inside compatible imperial solvent weld sockets.
BSP threaded connections allow PVC pipework to connect to compatible threaded valves, pumps and equipment. Always use a suitable thread sealing method and avoid overtightening plastic threaded fittings.
