“Female T 90 plain refers to a specific type of PVC (polyvinyl chloride) pipe fitting known as a female tee with a 90-degree angle. Let’s break down the term:
Female Tee: A tee fitting in PVC plumbing is used to create a T-shaped intersection in a pipeline. A “female tee” has female threaded sockets on all three ends, allowing it to connect to three male-threaded PVC pipes or fittings.
90-Degree: The “90-degree” part of the term refers to the angle of the tee fitting. In this case, it means that the branching direction is perpendicular to the flow direction of the main pipeline.
PVC: PVC is a type of plastic material commonly used for piping due to its durability, corrosion resistance, and affordability.
Combining these terms, a “female T 90 PVC” is a PVC pipe fitting that has the following characteristics:
It has three female threaded sockets, forming a T-shaped intersection.
The angle between the main pipeline and the branch pipeline is 90 degrees, creating a right-angle bend.
This type of fitting is often used in plumbing and irrigation systems when you need to split the flow of water or fluids into two separate directions at a right angle. The female threads on the sockets allow for easy and secure connections to male-threaded PVC pipes or fittings.
As with any PVC fittings, it’s crucial to choose the correct size and type of fitting for your specific plumbing needs, and follow the manufacturer’s guidelines for proper installation to ensure leak-free and reliable connections.
