6" UPVC Socket

The socket is commonly used in drain, waste, and vent piping applications, providing a leak-proof connection ideal for plumbing and drainage systems.

Key features of the 6" UPVC Socket include ease of installation, high-impact resistance, and durability. It fits standard PVC pipe diameters and can withstand various environmental conditions.

UPVC is resistant to most minerals acids, alkalies, salts, and paraffinic hydrocarbon solutions, making the socket suitable for environments with chemical exposure.

The temperature tolerance for the 6" UPVC Socket is typically up to 140°F (60°C), making it suitable for various applications.

The installation process is simple: slide the socket onto the pipe ends. No adhesives or sealants are required for a quick and efficient connection.

Maintenance requirements are minimal. Regular inspections for wear or damage are recommended to ensure continued functionality.

The 6" UPVC Socket complies with industry standards such as ASTM D-2466 for pressure fittings and ASTM D-1785 for pipes, ensuring safety and performance standards are met.

A UPVC Socket is a straight pipe coupling used to join two UPVC pipes in irrigation and plumbing. It’s sold per piece and is designed to create a secure, leak‑proof connection between standard UPVC pipes.

It is made from high-quality UPVC (rigid polyvinyl chloride) material, which provides durability, corrosion resistance, and a long service life in wet environments.

This socket is sold per piece and is available in multiple pipe diameters to fit standard UPVC piping. Check the product options for the exact sizes offered.

Prepare the pipes by cutting to length and cleaning the ends. Use UPVC primer and solvent cement as recommended, apply to both the pipe end and inside the socket, push the pipe fully into the socket until it seats, and hold briefly until the bond sets to create a watertight connection.

Yes. UPVC sockets resist corrosion and rust and are designed for wet conditions, including outdoor installations. Ensure the chosen size matches your pipe and follow proper installation steps for a watertight seal.

It’s suitable for irrigation and general plumbing, including bathrooms and kitchens, as well as outdoor piping where UPVC fits standard pipe sizes.

Make sure your pipe diameter matches the socket size and that you’re using compatible UPVC piping. If in doubt, measure the pipe OD and consult the product size options listed on the page.
