When is a flat socket used and when is a tapered socket used for the connection ports of steel-reinforced polyethylene pipes?

The general principles for selecting connection ends for steel-reinforced polyethylene pipes are as follows: 1. When the pipe diameter is small, a flat socket connection is usually chosen – flat socket connections are more suitable for pipes of medium and small diameters, and their installation is relatively simple and convenient; - Suitable for pipelines with low pressure requirements and a diameter of less than DN200. 2. Conical sockets are preferred when the pipe diameter is large or high pressure requirements exist: – Conical sockets offer good sealing performance, making them more suitable for large-diameter pipes or applications that require high pressure and reliability ; - It is recommended for pipe diameters of DN200 and above, especially in applications with high pressure. In short, for small diameters and medium to low pressures, a flat socket joint can be chosen ; Tapered sockets are used when large diameters, high pressures, or strict requirements for safety and reliability are involved. .
