Q

PVC Connection Methodology:

Use an appropriate drill bit to make a pilot in your PVC and fitting, then run a self-tapping screw into this pilot hole. The screw will hold everything together.

A

Fasteners

17
Q

PVC Connection Methodology:

To do this, use a PVC cleaner, rough up the connecting surfaces with sandpaper, apply the glue to one surface, then fit pipe to fitting.

A

Silicone & Glue

18
Q

PVC Connection Methodology:

use strong steel band clamps to hold the rubber tight around your PVC pipe.

A

Flex Couplings

18
Q

PVC Connection Methodology:

Apply the solvent, then insert your PVC pipe into the fitting. Turn the pipe slightly, then hold it inside the fitting for at least 15 seconds to prevent it from backing out.

A

PVC Solvents/Cements

19
Q

HDPE Connection Methodology:

The process involves the joining of two flat surfaces against each other. By flat surface, in HDPE pipes, it means the flat facing surfaces at the two ends of the pipe joined together utilizing high temperature and extreme pressure.

A

Butt Welding

20
Q

HDPE Connection Methodology:

Welding is done with heating resistors inside the fusion fitting. Once the pipes are placed in the Ef fittings, the ends of the welding machine are connected to the resistors of the ef fitting and heating them.

A

Electro Fusion

21
Q

Other HDPE Connection methodologies

Stub flange
Compression Fitting

Q

PPR Connection Methodology:

A machine used for connecting PPR Pipes

A

PPR Fusion Machine

23
Q

It is a type of hose that is corrugated, is moisture-resistant and flame retardant. Can be bent by hand and not threaded due to its corrugated shape.

A

PVC Corrugated Electrical Flexible Hose

24
Q

Plastic Roofs:

is a transparent thermoplastic with carbonate functional groups.

A

Polycarbonate (PC)

25
Q

Plastic Roofs:

are highly adaptable roofing sheets which offer UV protection and are highly durable

A

Acrylic roofing sheets

26
Q

Plastic Roofs:

are a bit for cushioning. They have similar properties like the other sheets but are known for their good insulating properties.

A

Polystyrene sheets

27
Q

What does HIPS means

A

High impact polystyrene
