    Pipe adapters connect pipes of different materials or joining methods. Pipe caps screw onto pipes or nipples to act as plugs. Rigid couplings maintain alignment of stationary pipes, while reducing elbows combine reducing pieces and elbows. Gaskets like spiral wound and ring joint are used for sealing. Union couplings and full threaded couplings join threaded pipes using female threads, and nipples are short pipes with threads on both ends.

    PIPE WORK

    Adaptor:
    A pipe adapter is a fitting that is used to connect pipes of different materials or pipes that require different joining methods.

    Pipe Cap: A pipe cap is a fitting with a female (inside) thread. It is used like a plug, except that the pipe cap screws on the male thread of a pipe or nipple

    Coupling: Rigid coupling provides reliable holding power and maintain alignment when no movement is required.

    Reducing Elbows Reducing Elbows are like a reducing piece and elbow combined into one.

    Gaskets Spiral wound gaskets and ring joint gasket

    Union Coupling Union coupling female thread for joining threaded pipes

    Full Threaded Coupling Full threaded coupling for joining threaded pipes

    NIPPLE Both end threaded male pipe nipple
