Pipe is a long hollow cylinder used chiefly to convey fluid.

Material is the stuff from which a thing is made of or consisting of matter.

Requisition form is a form requesting materials and supplies needed for making a project
Specification is the description involving measurements like volume, board feet, quality, trademark manufacturer etc.
Tools is anything which is held by hands and assists a person to do manual work.

Different Types of Pipes

PVC PIPE -refers to Poly Vinyl Chloride Plastic material. This is the most common pipe for plumbing system.
PE PIPE -refers to Polyethylene Plastic material intended for long span water system installation.
CI PIPE -is a heavy metal made of casting on molds to make fixtures. such as sink, tubs and lavatories, covered with a
porcelain enamel coating.
GI PIPE -is a galvanized iron pipe which is better fitted for plumbing installation than steel pipe. It is constructed of rough
iron, dipped in molten zinc and maybe identified by its dull grayishcolor

SOLVENT -is an adhesive material usually used externally.

TEFLON TAPE -is specifically used for attachment threaded pipe on fittings.
ABS CLEANER AND CEMENT -is an adhesive material used by a plumbean when working with ABS pipes.
FITTINGS -are made in different forms that are intended for plumbing joints and connections.
FAUCET -is a point of installation system where flow of water or gas could be manipulated.
MSS-refers to Manufacturer’s Standardization Society
NIPPLE -is a short length of pipe installed between couplings or other fittings.
ADAPTOR/ADAPTER-is fittings that joints two different types of pipes together, such as ABS to cast iron or threaded to
nonthreaded.

2. FITTINGS – are any pipe part used to join two sections of pipes.
Characteristics of Stainless Steel Pipe Fittings
Stainless steel pipe fittings is an alloy based on iron, which combines together the mechanical properties of
steels and some specific features of corrosion resistance.
These alloys are also liable to tarnish.
This means that they have the possibility to passivate, that means to get covered with an invisible layer of
oxides that protects the underlying metal from corrosive attacks. stainless steel pipe fittings is the name given
to a type of steel with high chromium contents that thanks to this feature does not rust when exposed to water
and air. They are a very important class of steels, used in countless applications. In fact, nowadays
both stainless steel pipe fittings furniture and construction machinery are very popular.
The discovery of this type of steel is due to Harry Brearly, who while was experimenting with various types of
alloys for the reeds of guns, noticed that a type of steel with a certain percentage of chromium did not get
rusted when exposed to the atmosphere. Later this property was explained by the passivation of chromium,
which forms a very thin oxide film on the surface, continuous and stable. The following progresses in
metallurgy between the forty and the sixty have extended their development and their applications. They are
still refined and adapted to the demands of various industries such as oil/petrochemical, mining, energy,
nuclear and food industries.
Stainless steel pipe fittings is still refined and adapted to the demands of various industries like petroleum,
petrochemical, mining, energy, nuclear, food and obviously building. A lot of machines are built with parts
made of steel, from pipes to sheet to steel trolleys.
