The metric 90 degrees PVC-U cross is an industrial pipe fitting manufactured by Georg Fischer, designed for four-way flow distribution and branching in pressure piping systems. Rated for operating pressures up to PN16 (16 bar at 20°C), this equal fitting facilitates fluid distribution across perpendicular axes, reducing joint complexity compared to fabricated tee manifolds. Manufactured from unplasticised polyvinyl chloride (PVC-U in RAL 7011 grey), it features metric solvent cement sockets conforming to industrial dimensional standards. The smooth internal bore minimizes localized pressure drop and limits turbulence, ensuring high hydraulic efficiency across continuous process lines and utility conveyance networks.

Unplasticised polyvinyl chloride provides robust chemical resistance against inorganic acids, alkalis, salts, and general industrial media. The material eliminates galvanic corrosion, scaling, and internal surface degradation, maintaining nominal flow capacity throughout the system lifespan. This fitting is extensively utilized in industrial water treatment facilities, chemical processing lines, cooling water circuits, and high-demand utility piping. Connection is achieved through solvent cementing using approved adhesives such as Tangit PVC-U or Tangit DTX, creating a cohesive, monolithic joint capable of withstanding hydraulic shocks and continuous operational pressures.

As an authorised Georg Fischer distributor, BigWeld supplies genuine industrial thermoplastic piping components. Available in metric outer diameters from d20 mm to d110 mm, this PN16 cross fitting delivers mechanical rigidity and reliable performance within standard working temperature ranges up to 60°C, subject to thermal pressure de-rating. The standardized socket tolerances guarantee precise alignment during installation, enabling mechanical contractors and process engineers to execute durable, leak-tight pipeline intersections.
