What is upvc Socket 2″ GM Local ?

 

The local brand UPVC Socket 2″ GM Pressure SCH 40 fitting is designed for reliable connections in UPVC piping systems, primarily used in water supply and industrial piping with medium pressure requirements.

Specification and Description

• Size: 2 inches nominal diameter

• Material: UPVC (un plasticized polyvinyl chloride), manufactured to ASTM D1785 (pipes) and ASTM D2466 (fittings) standards

• Schedule: SCH 40, indicating standard wall thickness suitable for moderate pressure applications

• Color: Commonly grey or white

• Pressure rating: Typically around 19.68 kg/cm² (approx. 280 psi) working pressure at 23°C for 2” SCH 40 UPVC fittings

• Construction: Durable, corrosion-resistant, smooth inside for reduced friction and scaling, suitable for potable water and industrial fluids

• Connection type: Solvent cement weld or rubber ring seal socket joint to ensure leak-proof assembly.

Installation

• Thoroughly clean the socket and pipe spigot surfaces; ensure they are dry and free of dirt or grease

• Use appropriate lubricant for rubber rings if present, or apply solvent cement if using solvent weld joints

• Insert spigot end straight into the socket without forcing or angling, rotating slightly to evenly seat the pipe

• Mark insertion depth for proper fit; allow for thermal expansion (typically 13-25 mm socket depth)

• Ensure pipe alignment is straight for secure connection

• Hold joint in position to cure if solvent cement is used, following manufacturer’s curing time guidelines

• Avoid excessive tightening in case of threaded or clamp fittings to prevent damage.

Usage

• Suitable for pressure water supply systems, irrigation, plumbing installations, and industrial piping where SCH 40 pressure ratings suffice

• Used to join lengths of UPVC pipe to ensure sealed, leak-free flow in pipelines

• Common in residential, commercial, and light industrial applications requiring UV resistance, corrosion resistance, and easy assembly

• Not suitable for highly aggressive chemicals beyond UPVC compatibility or extremely high temperatures beyond standard UPVC ratings.
