DI Tail Piece Pipe
DI (Ductile Iron) tail piece pipe is a short, specialized fitting, often featuring a flange on one end and a socket (push-on) or spigot on the other. It is used to connect DI pipelines to valves, meters, or different pipe materials (like PVC) in water, sewage, and industrial systems, offering a secure, leak-proof, and durable transition.
- Design Types: Commonly found as Flange-Socket (for push-on joint connection) or Flange-Spigot (for insertion into a coupling).
- Material: High-grade Ductile Iron, known for its strength, corrosion resistance, and longevity.
- Applications: Essential in water supply networks, sewage systems, and industrial piping for connecting pipes to equipment, pumps, and valves.
- Sizes: Typically available from 3 inches and above, with pressure ratings like PN10/PN16.
- Standards: Manufactured to adhere to standards such as AWWA C151 for Ductile Iron pipes.
Benefits:
- Versatility: Allows for smooth, reliable transitions between flanged and plain-ended pipes.
- Durability: Robust construction ensures a long service life under high pressure.
- Easy Installation: Socketed ends allow for simple push-fit installation.
