A pipe extender allows you to bridge a gap between two sections of pipe. It achieves this by slotting inside one pipe section and providing a socket connection for the other.
Essentially, a pipe extender works as follows:
- One end of the pipe extender is designed to slot inside the existing pipe you are extending. This end typically has a slightly smaller diameter.
- The other end of the pipe extender functions as a socket. This means it has a wider diameter, allowing you to insert another pipe section into it.
- By inserting the extender into one pipe and then inserting another section of pipe into the extender's socket, you effectively bridge the gap between the original pipe sections.
Therefore, using a pipe extender is simply a matter of inserting the correct ends into the respective pipes, ensuring a secure fit to bridge the intended gap.
