What are Pipe Fittings?
Pipe fittings are components that are used to connect pipe sections with other fluid control products such as valves and pumps to form pipelines. The term fittings is commonly associated with those used for metal and plastic pipes that transport fluids. 
Other types of pipe fittings can also be used to connect pipes for handrails and other architectural elements where a leak-proof connection is not required. Depending on the material of the pipe, pipe fittings can be welded or threaded, mechanically joined, or chemically adhered, to name a few common mechanisms.
