Liitäntäputki

Liitäntäputki, a Finnish term, translates to "connection pipe" or "junction pipe" in English. It refers to a component used in various technical applications to join two or more pipes or conduits. The primary function of a liitäntäputki is to create a secure and sealed connection, preventing leaks and ensuring the continuous flow of fluids, gases, or other materials.

These pipes can be made from a variety of materials depending on their intended use. Common materials include plastics like PVC or polyethylene, metals such as steel or copper, and sometimes even rubber or composite materials. The specific design of a liitäntäputki can vary, featuring different types of fittings such as threaded ends, compression fittings, or flanged connections to accommodate the pipes being joined.

Liitäntäputki are found in numerous systems, including plumbing in buildings, industrial pipelines for transporting chemicals or water, electrical conduit systems for housing wires, and even in automotive applications for exhaust or fluid transfer. Their precise role is to facilitate the extension, modification, or repair of existing pipe networks, allowing for flexibility and adaptability in system design and maintenance. The selection of the appropriate liitäntäputki depends on factors such as the pressure, temperature, and chemical nature of the substance being transported, as well as environmental considerations.
