Understanding FRP Fittings and Their Applications

The Importance of Beveled Ends in FRP Fittings

FRP (Fiber Reinforced Plastic) fittings are designed to connect with pipes in a way that ensures a secure and reliable fit. In this context, the correct answer to the question is C) Beveled. A beveled end is one that has been cut at an angle (typically 30 to 37.5 degrees) to the pipe's longitudinal axis.

This angling allows for a larger surface area for welding and a stronger, more seamless connection between the pipe and the fitting. Beveling is a standard practice in piping systems to prepare pipes and fittings for butt welding.

Therefore, by ensuring that FRP fittings are manufactured to accept the beveled end of the pipe, it guarantees a secure connection that is well-suited for butt welding applications where a strong and leak-proof joint is essential.
