ERA Mechanical Compression Fitting is a fitting that connect piping elements which require physical force to develop a seal or
produce alignment. There are several materials of compression fittings, such as: Steel, Brass, Plastic. The most plastic material
used is PP, there are also PE or PVC compression fittings.
PP compression fittings are widely used in water supply and irrigation. ERA mechanical fittings are made by high quality PP
material with UV protection, both material and fittings are approved use with drinking water. The threaded version is BSP.
Fast & Reliable Connection: Split ring opening has been optimized to make pipe insertion even easier.
PP Compression Fittings is fabricated and designed using premium quality basic material and progressive technology.
Turning of pipes can be prevented by inner threaded during installation.
The high-quality material used in the product has an application in the area of water distribution, irrigation, swimming pools, and cable conduits.


Characteristics of polypropylene (PP)
Polypropylene resin is the lowest density of general plastics, has good mechanical properties, rigidity, wear resistance, hardness is relatively high; Good heat resistance, poor cold resistance; No water absorption, good chemical stability, but not sunlight, poor thermal stability; Flammable, burning when the smell of oil out; Good electrical insulation, voltage resistance, transparent film, poor permeability to air and water vapor; It is good for forming film, silk and other products, but poor dyeing, printing and adhesion.
Polypropylene (PP) for use in plastic products
First, film. Mainly used for all kinds of food, industrial products, daily necessities and electrical components packaging.
Two, hollow products. Used to make all kinds of liquid fuel, chemical liquid and daily chemical container.
Three, injection molding products. Used for daily necessities and various machinery parts.
Four, all kinds of pipe, plate and sheet products. Mainly used for wire, cable sheathing and hot forming groove, etc.
Flat ribbons and fibers. It is used for packing and strapping articles and various braided belts for packaging.
What is PP tube
PP pipe is the most common material in water pipes, and its scientific name is polypropylene, which is used in the transportation of drinking water. Moreover, this material is very environmentally friendly, non-toxic, and has good heat resistance, making it less prone to corrosion. As long as the connection is in place, it is not easy to have water leakage problems. The quality is relatively light, coupled with simple construction and a long service life, it is a commonly used water pipe material for household installation.
Advantages of PP pipes
1. Non rusting: PP pipes can withstand high concentrations of acid and alkali corrosion with pH values ranging from 1 to 14 over a wide temperature range.
2. Wear resistance and no scaling: The inner walls of PP pipes and fittings are uniform and smooth, with low flow resistance and no scaling.
3. Reducing vibration and noise: PP pipes have excellent sound insulation performance, which can significantly reduce vibration and noise caused by liquid flow.
4. Anti freezing and cracking: PP material has excellent elasticity, allowing the cross-section of pipes and fittings to expand together with the frozen liquid without cracking.
5. Anti condensation and low heat loss: PP material is a poor thermal conductor, which can reduce condensation and minimize heat loss.
6. Easy installation: PP pipes are lightweight, easy to install and operate, and have weldability.
7. Long service life: The PP pipe system has a lifespan of up to 50 years under specified usage conditions.
Disadvantages of PP pipes
Although PP pipes have many advantages, we cannot ignore their drawbacks. This disadvantage is reflected in its high temperature and pressure resistance performance. If operated for a long time, the working temperature cannot exceed 70 degrees. Moreover, during construction, it is best not to bend. If there are too many corners, it may lead to water leakage problems.
