HDPE Female Threaded Adapter
An HDPE Female Threaded Adapter is a pipe fitting made from high-density polyethylene (PE100/PE80 grades), designed to connect an HDPE pipe to a male-threaded component such as a valve, pump, or metal fitting. It provides a secure, leak-proof transition between HDPE piping and threaded connections, offering benefits of corrosion resistance, chemical durability, flexibility, and long service life, making it widely used in gas distribution, sewage, and industrial applications.
HDPE Female Threaded Adapter
Key Features Of HDPE Female Threaded Adapter
- Durable Construction – Made from high-density polyethylene (PE80/PE100 grades) for strength and reliability.
- Secure Transition – Provides a leak-proof connection between HDPE pipes and male-threaded components (valves, pumps, metal fittings, etc.).
- Corrosion & Chemical Resistance – Unaffected by rust, soil chemicals, and most industrial fluids.
- Easy Installation – Simple to install without heavy tools; saves time and labor.
- Versatile Compatibility – Suitable for connecting HDPE to metal or plastic threaded parts.
- Lightweight & Cost-Effective – Easier to handle and more economical compared to metal adapters.
- High Strength & Flexibility – Withstands pressure, vibration, and minor ground movement.
- Standard Threading – Available in BSP/NPT female threads for universal fit.
- Wide Size & Pressure Range – Commonly available in 20 mm to 110 mm sizes, with PN6, PN10, PN16 ratings.
