Do not attempt to push the pipe into the fitting to get the measurement. Many PVC fittings are slightly tapered and won’t allow you, in most cases, to fully seat “dry” pipe. We’ll explain this in detail when we get into how to glue PVC. The take-away is to use the tape meas...
PVC pipes deteriorate over time, especially if subjected to high pressures, large volumes or water hammer (the hammering noise you hear when the flow of water is suddenly stopped). Couplings and cement hold together lengths of PVC piping cement. Polyethylene tubing, or high density ...
Making a raised garden bed is an easy weekend project even for a novice. Here’s how to do it, from placement to potting soil to plants.
this usually means installing PEX flexible tubing for the water supply and PVC pipes for the drain lines. PEX (which stands for "cross-linked polyethylene") is a flexible tubing that can curve and bend without installing elbows and other fittings. This makes...
The lightweight high-strength system is supplied as 150mm deep twin wall high-density polyethylene (HDPE) rings to provide maximum flexibility and strength which are simply stacked on a prepared base and backfilled with suitable as-dug or Type 1 material. See the suppliers Installation ...
The jumping mats are made of woven fibers. Today, mats are made of artificial fibers like polyethylene or nylon. The heavily woven fabric is WV-protected to prevent fading when used out of doors. Safety pads go over the springs and frame and are made of foam. They have vinyl covers and...
Thermoset jackets like cross-linked polyethylene also offer broad chemical resistance. How can cable assemblies be made waterproof? Techniques like sealed connectors with o-rings, gel infilling open connectors, composite tubing or enclosures, and water-blocking cable jackets help exclude water ingress. ...

Tubing is named based on the outside diameter. Tables can also help you find out the “schedule” of your pipe, which is related to the wall thickness. If you have PEX, Cross-Linked Polyethylene Tubing, the nominal diameter is equivalent to the internal diameter. Submit a Tip All tip ...
If using a lateral line, use black polyethylene tubing. (PVC irrigation piping is only rated for below-ground use.) If using a mainline, choose piping made from copper, galvanized steel, PEX, sturdy PVC, or heavy polyethylene. Bury PVC to protect it from sunlight. The size and type of ...
