Pipe Fittings valves and glue to suit:
Brand Sn Biru AV pvc pipe
Size 115mm OD (external diameter)
Thickness 3mm
60 pce Straight couplings
12 pce 90deg bend
10 pce 15deg? 30deg? Or 45deg bends (or some of each)
5 pce Take-off “elbow” or “T” for 115mm pipe with 25mm take-off branch
2 ltrs pvc pipe glue
20 pce 25mm pvc addaptors to 25mm pipe thread
10 pce 25mm brass gate valves or plastic ball valves
Note: if T section with 25mm branch can not be found, a larger T or Y branch is OK. In that case we need pipe reducers down from 115mm to 25mm.
We want to tap into the main water line and provide the army camp with washing water at several points down the slope from the header box to the camp.
We need only 25mm pipe for these branch lines so any combination of fittings that achieves this is fine with us. We then need stop valves on these branch lines.
