With the increasing popularity of PVC pipe fittings, more and more PVC pipe fitting joints have been invented and put into use. Because of its light weight, high compressive strength and strong corrosion resistance, PVC pipe fittings are welcomed by the engineering community. Then in the process of our purchase, it is important to understand its basic information, such as type and size. This article will focus on information about the size of PVC pipe fitting coupling.

Different sizes of the PVC pipe fitting joints
16mm, 20mm, 40mm, 50mm and 110mm are the common specification of the PVC pipe fitting coupling which refer to pipe diameter. Among them, pipe diameters with 16mm and 20mm are for conduit, 40mm and 50mm are for sewer while 110mm is used for the main water pipe and toilet water.
The price of the PVC pipe fitting joints of different specifications is also different. Generally, the price of 50mm specifications is about 1.5 yuan. Of course, the higher the specification is, the higher the price will be. Because it is a commonly used material, it must be acceptable to the public and not too expensive.
How to find the size of the PVC pipe and pipe fittings?
There are three common ways to find PVC Pipe and pipe fitting size. If you need to find out the
PVC pipe and pipe fitting size, do one of the following:
1. Download the PVC pipe fitting joints guide: You can download the PVC pipe fitting coupling size guide, a scale printing solution that allows you to physically compare PVC pipes to each PVC pipe size specification.
2. Read the PVC pipe fittings Markings: If you use pipe grade PVC pipe fitting joints in your project, you can read the pipe tag. Each pipe and pipe fitting level manufacturer marks pipes and pipe fitting differently, but you can see the PVC pipe marking page to learn how to read them.
3. Compare to Other PVC pipes and pipe fitting: The outer diameter of PVC pipe fitting coupling is similar to some common items. You can view the size comparison chart for an intuitive understanding of the diameter of each PVC pipe and pipe fitting size.
When judging the size information of PVC pipe fitting coupling, what should we pay attention to?
The size of PVC pipe fitting joints is obtained by measuring the inner diameter (also known as hole) of PVC pipe fitting coupling instead of the outer diameter. If the outside diameter is measured, the reading will increase because the pipe has thickness. For example, a 1 inch PVC pipe fitting is actually 1.315 inches in outside diameter, and 1.029 inches in inside diameter.
How to measure the size of the PVC pipe joints?
The product follows the nominal pipe size (NPS) designation convention or PVC specification, which uses the size number closely related to the size to identify the hole diameter of PVC pipe fitting joints. Last but not least, never order according to the outer diameter.
The above is the specific description of the size information of PVC pipe fittings, and also lists some precautions for specification selection. I hope it is useful for you.
