UPVC Socket
A UPVC Socket is a straight coupling pipe fitting used to connect two lengths of UPVC pipe in a secure and leak-proof manner. Designed for solvent cement jointing, the UPVC socket ensures a rigid and permanent connection within piping systems. It is widely used in plumbing, irrigation, chemical distribution, and industrial fluid handling applications due to its durability and chemical resistance.
