New PP-RCT pipe fitting
Date: 18.1.2019
Utilisation of modern technology brings innovations = transition from PPR to PP-RCT. Based on this development and new knowledge, Wavin Ekoplastik introduces gradual transition from PPR to PP-RCT even when making pipe fittings.
The transition is and will be gradual
- Now: Pipe fittings PP-RCT ∅ 75, 90, 110, 125, 160, 200, 250 mm
- November 2019: All pipe fittings PP-RCT ∅ 63 mm
- February 2020: All pipe fittings PP-RCT ∅ 50 mm
(all plastic PPR fittings completely replaced)
PP-RCT Pipe Fitting Advantages
- pipe fittings of the highest quality made of new generation material – PP-RCT, type 4
- higher pressure resistance at higher temperatures
- lower weight of the final product
- less robust installation
Less robust and yet more durable
