Implementation of the tie-in cast iron water pipe

compound plastic pipes.

Have a convenient and easy-to-use materials, virtually ousted from the household use of cast iron pipes.But if you still had to face it with such a design, then as a binder for use tie flange.This item is a piece of a pipe, the inner diameter of which coincides with the outside diameter of the pipe, which will be inset.The combination of these two components is carried out by means of clamps or welding equipment.To ensure tightness - apply an epoxy resin.

And what do you do if a pipe that will bump is made of plastic, which can not be applied welding method.There are two options:

• the presence on the tube socket, you can use a special rubber adapter, which applied sealant.Thereafter, the adapter is inserted into a plastic tube and the whole structure attached to the socket.
• If the socket is not available, you need to wear rubber adapter on the cast-iron pipe.Over it attached special adapter, which is then inserted into a plastic system.Its advantage is the simplicity of the dismantling, if necessary.

The work on the sidebar in the plastic pipe, the first thing to do - get special connection sockets with a rubber seal, which would exclude the possibility of leakage.It is inserted into the pipe with a pipe.This method is complicated because it requires crushing entire length on two short pipes.This is done so that at their junction with each other to establish a tee.

If this method seems too complicated, then there is an easier option.Harvested a piece of pipe with a nozzle of suitable diameter.During Embedded pipe is a hole, the edges of which are covered with sealant.Use the clamps that tighten as much as possible, connect your design to the pipe.

connection with the existing metal plumbing.If

metal pipes, but suitable method that is used in the case of cast-iron pipes.Self-made flange diameter, for a more snug fit, should match the diameter of the pipe, which will be inset.

You can use ready-made T-piece, which is sold in the store.Even if it is more than your desired diameter, it is possible to fix the problem by cutting off a part of it, which is not fitting.

For fastening the flange to the pipe will need to seek the services of an experienced welder, who can do it qualitatively.If, however, during the operation of pipes, water leakage was found - it can be repaired with sealant.The same sealant can be used if for some reason there is no possibility to carry out welding work.For reliability, the design additionally secured with clamps.

Application of connecting adapters.

Simply put, adapters (fittings) - a special adapter.They greatly facilitate the entire process of tapping pipes.

advantages of using adapters:

• They are used for fastening together pipes of different materials (such as metal to plastic or vice versa);
• ability to connect different designs in diameter;
• Easy to install, does not require special skills;
