PPR Fittings
PPR fittings are highly durable, heat-resistant components used to join Polypropylene Random Copolymer (PPR) pipes in hot and cold water plumbing systems. Known for their excellent chemical resistance and leak-proof fusion welding, these fittings are a modern, reliable alternative to traditional metal piping systems.
- Material: Polypropylene Random Copolymer (Type 3) virgin material
- Minimum Required Strength (MRS): Approximately 10.0 MPa at 20°C for 50 years
- Hydrostatic Design Basis (HDB): Typically 11 MPa (1600 psi) @ 20°C/23°C
- Allowable Design Stress: Varies by temperature and application class; generally around 5 MPa for continuous use
- Tensile Strength at Yield: ~23 MPa (3300 psi)
- Elongation at Break: >50% to >600% (ductile material)
- Modulus of Elasticity (Short-term flexural): ~800 – 1100 MPa (Value decreases with increasing temperature)
- Flexural Modulus: ~800-1000 MPa
- Poisson’s Ratio: ~0.45
- Thermal Expansion Coefficient: ~1.5 × 10⁻⁴ °C⁻¹
- Pressure Ratings: PN10, PN16, PN20, PN25
- Available Diameters: 16 mm up to 710 mm+
- Easy to handle, transport, and install
- Highly corrosion and abrasion resistant
- Weatherproof for underground applications
- Maintains water taste and quality — safe for drinking water
- Withstands high impact and underground movement without cracking
- Reliable supply and delivery across Rwanda.
- On-site technical and installation guidance.
- Dedicated after-sales and customer service team.
- Wide network of distributors for faster access.
- Consistent quality and support for every project size.
- Hot and Cold Potable Water Systems: Ideal for domestic water supply in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings.
- Central Heating Systems: Used widely for radiator and underfloor heating connections.
- Air Conditioning Systems: Used for chilled water lines in HVAC applications.
- Industrial Piping Networks: For transporting a variety of chemical solutions, compressed air, and process water.
- Agricultural and Horticultural Systems: Used in irrigation lines and greenhouse plumbing.
- Rainwater Utilization Systems.
PPR Fittings
Tee
Used to connect three PP-R pipes, allowing water flow in three directions.
90° Elbow
Changes the pipe direction by 90°, ideal for corners or tight spaces.
45° Elbow
Provides a 45° directional change for smoother water flow.
Coupling
Connects two straight sections of PP-R pipes of the same diameter.
Reducing Tee
Connects three pipes of different sizes; reduces flow diameter at one branch.
Reducing coupling
Joins two pipes of different diameters in a straight line.
Short bridge
Allows bypass or connection between two parallel pipes.
Reducing Elbow 90°
Makes a 90° turn while connecting pipes of different diameters.
Female Elbow 90°
90° elbow with female threads for easy connection to male-threaded components.
Stop Valve
Controls or shuts off water flow manually within the system.
End Cap
Closes the end of a PP-R pipe to seal off the system.
Flange adapter
Connects PP-R pipes to flanged equipment or metal pipelines.
Male coupling
Straight connector with male threads to join pipes to female-threaded fittings.
Female coupling
Straight connector with female threads for male-threaded components.
Male brass union
Combines brass and PP-R ends for reliable threaded connections.
Female brass union
Connects PP-R pipe to a male-threaded fitting using a brass insert.
Fe-Double union
Allows easy disassembly of two connected PP-R pipes for maintenance.
Plastic Ball Valve
Manually controls flow with a quarter-turn handle for quick shut-off.
Male Threaded Tee
Tee fitting with a male-threaded branch for connecting to threaded outlets.
Female thread tee
Tee fitting with a female-threaded branch for threaded pipeline extensions.
