PEX fittings and pipes are made from cross-linked polyethylene, making them the preferred choice for household plumbing. With flexible conduits and accessories to match, use PEX for plumbing in small spaces where traditional ABS pipes will not fit. Available in crimp rings, push-fit, compression, angled, tees, and plugs, there is a PEX fitting to fill every water or gas need. Use PEX compression fittings to connect gas lines and avoid the need to solder or weld water pipes in the home.

Another popular type of plumbing pipe fittings are galvanized steel fittings. The corrosion resistance of galvanized pipes and fittings makes them suitable for refuse and wastewater piping as well as for disposal lines and underground water removal lines. Galvanized fittings are available in caps, tees, connectors, elbow joints, floor flanges, and much more, making connecting galvanized pipes hassle-free. Add plumbing tape to the threads of these fittings to create a water and airtight connection.

Other plumbing pipe fittings come as CPVC fittings. Available in elbow connectors, tees, conversion adaptors, and ranging in size from a ½ inch to 3 inches in diameter, it’s easy and convenient to find the ones needed for all plumbing tasks. Connect CPVC pipes with a bonding adhesive made for this purpose, providing an airtight seal. Use CPVC fittings with CPVC plumbing pipes for hot water distribution piping throughout the home. CPVC is compatible with PVC pipes and accessories.
