Spigot Fitting in PVC to Glue

Spigot Fitting in PVC to Glue Codital (Reference: 5014)

In the demanding world of plumbing and hydraulic installations, every component must meet strict quality criteria. This Codital PVC-U spigot fitting embodies the technical excellence and reliability required for your most complex projects. Designed according to PN16 standards, it guarantees optimal performance in all your hydraulic applications.

Applications and Benefits

This spigot fitting fits into many configurations: drinking water networks, agricultural irrigation systems, industrial installations, swimming pools and spas, or drainage networks. Its versatility makes it the ideal ally for professional plumbers as well as experienced DIY enthusiasts.

For building professionals, it enables fast and secure assemblies on site. Homeowners will appreciate its ease of use for their outdoor or renovation projects. Farmers and market gardeners find a durable solution for their irrigation networks, while green space managers use it to optimise their irrigation systems.

Technical Specifications and Innovation

Made from PVC-U (unplasticised polyvinyl chloride), this fitting benefits from the exceptional properties of this material: impact resistance, dimensional stability, insensitivity to corrosion and limescale deposits. Its spigot design considerably increases the contact surface with the adhesive, guaranteeing maximum adhesion.

The dimensional range extends from 16 mm to 63 mm, covering the majority of domestic and industrial plumbing needs. Each dimension complies with strict tolerances to ensure a perfect fit with the corresponding pipes. The smooth internal finish optimises fluid flow and reduces pressure losses.

Compatible with all PN16 pressure PVC pipes, it integrates seamlessly into your existing installations. Its resistance to a pressure of 16 bar at 20°C makes it a safe choice for most common hydraulic applications.

Installation and Practical Use

The installation of this spigot fitting follows a simple but rigorous protocol. Start by lightly chamfering the end of the pipe to facilitate insertion. Carefully clean the surfaces to be assembled with a suitable degreaser to remove any traces of dust or grease.

Apply the special pressure PVC adhesive evenly on the spigot surfaces of the fitting and on the end of the pipe. Immediately insert the pipe with a quarter turn to distribute the adhesive. Hold the position for 30 seconds to allow initial setting.

For maintenance, PVC-U requires no special treatment. Its smooth surface prevents the build-up of deposits and its chemical resistance ensures exceptional longevity. In case of frost, the material retains its mechanical properties, unlike other more fragile materials.

Expert Tips and Optimisation

To maximise the performance of your installation, combine this fitting with other Codital PN16 PVC fittings from our range: elbows, tees, reducers and couplings. This brand consistency guarantees perfect compatibility and optimal performance.

Professional tip: for outdoor installations, favour glued assemblies for their superior reliability against thermal variations. For buried networks, protect your assemblies with a warning mesh to facilitate future interventions.

Mistake to avoid: never force the insertion. If the pipe does not insert easily, check the chamfering and cleanliness of the surfaces. In winter, store your PVC components at room temperature before installation to optimise the flexibility of the material.

For professionals, this fitting integrates perfectly into a preventive maintenance approach. Its reliability considerably reduces the risk of leaks and emergency interventions, thus optimising the profitability of your installations.
