Long Plain Socket Imperial Pool Pipe Fitting - White

Long Plain Socket Imperial Pool Pipe Fitting - White

The Long Plain Socket is a specialised fitting created to provide a strong, reliable connection between flexible and rigid imperial pipework in swimming pools. spas, and pond plumbing systems. It's extended socket length offers a greater bonding surface area, making it well suited for use with flexi-pipe, where a standard socket may not provide enough grip or glue contact. 

Why Use a Long Plain Socket in Swimming Pool Plumbing? 

When working with flexible pool pipe, achieving a secure connection can be tricky due to the pipe's natural curve and movement. The Long Plain Socket provides extra depth, giving more surface area for solvent weld adhesive to form a strong, watertight seal. This Makes it ideal for: 

• Flexi-pipe to rigid pipe transitions. 
• Flexi-pipe extensions or repairs. 
• Situations where extra bonding is desired. 

Pipe Compatibility

Designed for use with 1.5" and 2" imperial flexi or rigid pipework, the long socket features plain ends for solvent weld bonding.
