FORMUFIT 1/2” 3-Way Elbow Furniture Grade PVC Fitting in Black, Made in USA, UV-Resistant, Impact-Proof, 0.840” Actual Socket Diameter (Pack of 10)

They Work Fine

I was somewhat concerned about the connectors fitting properly, but I took one connector to the store and it fitted perfectly on half inch pipe. My lettuce plants are happy to have some shade now. The hardest part was cutting the pipe. A hacksaw works but it's hard to cut a good even end. A file or sandpaper block removes the burrs. A pipe cutter also works, does a good square end and doesn't need deburring.

We used these with some PVC pipe from the hardware store to build a netted box to protect the strawberries in our raised beds from the birds. We just connected several pipes together in an elongated cube shape then wrapped all but one side with bird netting and voila, no more birds eating our strawberries!The joints fit very neatly with the pipe and did not need any adhesive. Adhesive will be needed though if you are pressurizing the lines.I'm also considering using these to build a sort of modular water-playground for the kids where they can build their own miniature water park connected to the hose.Update: We've been using these for about a year now and they're still working great. We found that with regular use it was worthwhile to use some glue to fasten the joints properly. Since we weren't pressurizing water in the pipes, I did a really quick glue-job that took 2 minutes and now the joints hold everything together really well.

Item was as described and arrived on time.

I’ve built quite a few things with these fittings. They are very well made and fit tightly with 1/2” PVC pipe. I’ve seen other brands which are cheaper but also thinner and basically, wimpy. I recommend these Formufit furniture connectors.

And great price too!

We like the consistent good service. We are building plant protectors out of PVC pipe and chicken wire. Squirrels love our plants unfortunately!

Used to build a frame for maxx haul cargo carrier. A lot of negative reviews appear to be because people are using the wrong type pipe for these fittings. They are for schedule 40 pvc not cpvc that I see in review pictures.
