putkiliitos
Putkiliitos, commonly known as a pipe joint or pipe coupling, is a mechanical joint used to connect two lengths of pipe or tubing. These joints are essential in plumbing, mechanical engineering, and various industrial applications to ensure a secure and leak-proof connection between pipe segments. Putkiliitos can be made from a variety of materials, including metal (such as steel, brass, or copper), plastic (such as PVC or polypropylene), or composite materials, depending on the intended use and environmental conditions.
The design of putkiliitos varies, but common types include slip joints, compression fittings, threaded joints, and
Putkiliitos are chosen based on factors such as the type of fluid being transported, pressure and temperature
In addition to standard pipe joints, specialized putkiliitos exist for specific applications, such as flexible couplings
