Jaotustükke
Jaotustükke (Finnish: jaotustüttä, plural jaotustukkeita) is a specialized piping component commonly used in the distribution networks of water, sewage, and industrial fluid systems in Finland. The term originates from the Finnish words "jaotus," meaning distribution or segmentation, and "tuke," an archaic term for a support or reinforcing element. Jaotustükke functions as a modular section that can be inserted, removed, or replaced without shutting down the entire pipeline. Its design facilitates quick isolation of sections for maintenance, repair, or system upgrades, thereby improving operational reliability and reducing downtime.
Typical jaotustükke units are fabricated from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and range in
Historically, the development of jaotustükke began in the late 1960s when Finnish engineering firms sought ways
Today, jaotustükke remains an integral part of the Finnish infrastructure landscape. Its modular approach aligns with
