PVC Pipe
PVC, or polyvinyl chloride, pipe is a drain or vent line type of plumbing pipe. PVC initially gained popularity because it was lighter and easier to work with than traditional galvanized steel pipe. PVC pipe is moderately easy to install and requires little more than a hacksaw and a miter box to cut. PVC glues together with solvents.
Besides, there are many other types of pipes such as PPR Pipe, PEX/ PERT/ PE Aluminium Pipe, Pure PEX/ PERT Pipe, etc. And pipes are alawys used together with fittings, for example, PPR Pipe and Fitting is a most commonly used material. Of course, fittings can also be devided into many types.
Types of Pipes and Fittings
To an uneducated homeowner, pipe fittings are as numerous and confusing as choosing the right screw or nail for a construction project. The materials vary and the specific purpose, although precise, seems daunting to figure out. Our plumbers in Houston & Rosenberg can help repair or repipe your yard.

Obviously, pipe fittings are attached to the end of pipes that allow them to change direction, control the flow, and change the diameter of the pipe.
Elbow Pipe Fittings
Elbows are used to change the direction of flow between two pipes. Elbows are generally available with an angle of 22.5o, 45o and 90o. If pipes are of same diameter then normal elbows are used otherwise Reducer elbows are used. Elbows are made of different materials. These are generally coming with female threads and we can fix them by butt or socket welding also.
Reducer Pipe Fittings
Reducer is a pipe fitting component which reduces the flow size from larger to smaller by reducing size of pipe. Usually there are two types of reducers are available. One is concentric reducer which is like cone shaped with gradual decreasing around the pipe but in this case accumulation of air may possible and it results in cavitation. Other one is eccentric reducer which is having one edge parallel to connecting pipe due to which air accumulation is not possible.
There are other fittings made of different materials as well such as PPR Fitting, PEX Fitting, Compression Fitting, Press Fitting, Brass Fitting, etc.
