What is a "pipe fitting"?
A pipe fitting is a device used to connect, control, or change the direction of pipes in a plumbing or piping system. It is typically made of metal, plastic, or other durable materials and comes in various shapes, such as elbows, tees, and couplings. Pipe fittings help to join sections of pipe together, allow pipes to change direction, or adjust the pipe’s size. They are essential for ensuring that water, gas, or other materials flow smoothly through the system, preventing leaks and ensuring that the piping system functions properly.
