PPR Bridge Pipe Fitting

Application Scenarios & Installation

Bridge fittings are most often used where multiple parallel pipe runs are installed close together — such as a set of hot and cold supply lines, or several branch lines feeding a row of fixtures — and one line needs to cross over another without the installation becoming a tangle of extra elbows and offsets. This keeps the overall run visually and physically tidy compared with routing one pipe around the other with multiple standard elbows.
Installation is the same as fitting a straight coupling: both ends are fused to the connecting pipe sections, with the fitting oriented so the raised crossover section clears the pipe it needs to pass over. Because the bridge introduces a small amount of extra pipe length and a change in profile, its use is typically limited to points where a genuine crossover is needed, rather than as a general-purpose fitting.
