New PVC-U pressure fittings

Aliaxis, with FIP branded products, has decided to give its contribution by re-engineering the best-selling figures of its historic line of fittings in PVC-U with the aim of reducing CO₂ emissions and offer a renewed range of industrial pressure fittings more performing and faster to install.

The new design fittings will guarantee:

Greater mechanical strength, thanks to the increase in thickness in the most stressed area of the fitting that reduces the risk of deformation
Simpler and faster installation, thanks to easy insertion and the addition of alignment notches on the part of the fitting
Greater production sustainability, thanks to a more conscious use of resources and raw materials and to reduction the environmental impact on the entire production process

What has been renovated?

Increased tickness in the areas subject to higher mechanical stress
Easier insertion
45° position indicators
Dimensional uniformity

Range internationally certified
