Features and Benefits

Fire and Smoke Safety

• Proto PVC Fittings do not exceed 25 Flame Spread, 50 Smoke Developed.
• Roll jacketing is available in 25/50-rated or indoor/outdoor grade.
• The 25/50 products meet most fire and safety requirements of federal state and local building codes.

UV Resistant

• Use indoors or outdoors.
• Paint outdoor fittings to enhance UV and colorfast protection.

Excellent Appearance

• Bright high-gloss white coloring adds a distinct quality appearance to the system.

Easy to Clean

• The smooth high-gloss surface cleans easily with soap and water.
• Ideal system for food and drug facilities.

Low-Cost Installation

• Significant cost savings vs. conventional cement, molded sections and mitered sections.

Fast and Easy

• At fitting locations, the fiber glass insert is wrapped around the pipe fitting, the Proto PVC Fitting is applied over the insert and then tacked or taped.

Wide Temperature Range

• For mechanical piping systems operating to 500°F (260°C)

Long Lasting

• Can be used more than once on retrofit projects, general maintenance.

Excellent Thermal Value

• Low thermal conductivity value of 0.26 at 75°F (0.037 W/m²•°C) mean temperature.
• Better thermal efficiency than conventional cement fittings.

Resistant to Fungi and Bacteria

• Does not promote growth of fungi or bacteria.
