This is actually common practice for PVC conduit. It can be heated and bent. I have no idea what he had those sharp 90s, you'd never use those in this application. If someone did they wouldn't be able to fish wire through it
Reduz a resistência, mas se você não vai usar na pressão máxima de trabalho, é nem em locais onde haja movimentação, essa emenda vai durar mais que a sua vida.
@@rykson161simple strength of materials. Heating it up and stretching/bending the material changes its yield strength and shortens the distance towards its failure point. If enough heat was applied to make it malleable like that, yes, it 100% did change it and made it overall weaker.
@@NIKSON-FRANCISPipes have right angle fittings for a reason. Adding heat and compromising the strength of the pipe is not the best way. It's stupid internet click bait crap.
@@johnnymnemonic-br8xp heating is not meant to burn it just hot air gun is enough And water flow in greater with less resistance in bends than right angles
This is done ALL the time in cases where pvc generally isn't holding any pressure. There are also many different kinds of pvc. Coulnt name them all, but tldr they all have different properties. Some you cant heat and stretch at all, but others act more like thermo plastics. Also, grey pvc is typically used as electrical conduit..... so chances are it's just wires running tough this pipe
@@MrHarry5001 yes this is such a bid thing, ruptures in the piped and improper installation. That's why there are angled piepes. If you heat plastic it's more probable of breaking
As an electrician, I approve this work except the ends (just use a damn coupling). Also notice the grey of the pvc pipe compared to white that plumbers normally use.
As a plumber I had a brief moment of anger and anxiety until I pulled my head out of my ass and realized it's conduit. Don't need to sand it if you use primer though.
Yeah but with the title just saying "pvc" you know most people who would try this are gonna use it on water pipes. Extremely irresponsible to not make it clear in the video or title.
Ahhh, thanks for the clarification. If you were a hobbyist, would you use this type of trick for a small fountain installation? Or is it just trash no matter what for any pressure?
Ah, yes, instead of using the *purpose made* joints, use a straight one, weaken it, stretch it, and then spring a leak after a month and watch all the pennies you saved by not buying joints turn into a tremendous water bill
I dont think the wires going to get ruined by it cuz probably nobody in the world uses a pipe that size for draining water and stuff but if this guys stupid enough to use a pipe like that and do that for water then maybe
Pvc joints and couplets left the chat And water leakage entered the chat (Edit): damn I never expected this comment to blow up like this. thankyou all for liking this comment some people are saying that the PVC pipe in the video is for electrical circuit,well...I didn't know that.still I think there could have been a profesional or better way to connect the PVC's rather than bending it even if it is for electrical circuit Also pls do keep in mind that this comment is a joke
It definitely weakens the integrity of the pipe and not supposed to be done in plumbing applications under pressure but I’m curious how strong it is. let’s test it
Personally wouldn't even do it for electrical conduit , lol. That way when it inevitably cracks and fills with water, there also isn't power. (All it takes is a nicked wire, a rodent, etc)
Con respeto. Si el agua baja, al embutir el nuevo trozo o suple en parte superior como lo muestra el vídeo, está bien, pero en la parte inferior debiera calentar la cañería que quedó fija en la muralla y la parte inferior del suple introducirlo en su interior, para que el flujo del agua no choque con alguna arista interna de la cañería que a futuro podría producir alguna fuga. Saludos.
It’s for electrical. I worked as an electricians apprentice for a year. The comments are full of charlatans who don’t know what they’re talking about, this is completely fine
@@magenlin not material wise but labor wise just get the right fittings and you'll be fine Keep in mind I don't work with pipes so if I'm wrong I'll take wrong
@@thermal6690 you are correct in thinking that this is the more expensive option. It would take at least 5 times as long to heatgun the pipe like they showed, than to simply use the proper fittings
Pour le raccord du haut c'est bien mais pour le raccord du bas, il aurait été préférable que le tuyau de raccord rentre dans le tuyau de base et non l'inverse !
It's not like they have home depots or lowes around the corners like we do here in the usa, when I lived in my country we had to travel like 4 to 6 hours to see if we could find what we where looking for, that's why people have to be creative with what they have and.
The desirable temperature for bending this pipe is 210 to 275 degrees F. That is not a problem for the PVC Bendit. But the resistance it was meant to withstand lowers slightly.
The best solution would be two 45° connections. They did basically the same thing but damaged the pipe. Maybe there's a reason why there's professionals, just maybe 🤷🏼♀️
@Fitness JA drainage uses white PVC pipes, not sure if it's 3in. or 4in. in my case but they are white. The same goes with water, those use 3/4in. white PVC pipes for cold water and the 1/2in. for the hot side. In the video, they are using gray PVC pipes which are commonly used to house electrical wires. Heck their channel is called "plumbing and * *electricity*."
You're probably right...or maybe they're trying to tell you to stop wasting so much time on social media & getting worked up over such trivial things...if you know the correct way to do it, then maybe you should make videos demonstrating your craft instead...shit or get off the pot, lol...😂
@@JM_Tushe “thin skin” as in losing a nerve when a person takes 50 extra steps when they could have just done it the right way the first time? Then yes.
@@eliminate8264you are not wrong. I work in water treatment for a public utility, I don’t even work on private lines (post-meter). The back asswards crap I have seen pre-meter on some repairs boggles my mind. It has to be a severe lack of cognition and problem solving capability, maybe just apathy? People will never cease to disappoint you, that’s the best lesson I’ve learned from my current job.
