Pipes, fittings, [[valve]]s, and accessories make up a plastic pressure pipe system. The range of pipe diameters for each pipe system does vary. However, the size ranges from {{convert|12|to|400|mm|in|3|abbr=on}} and {{convert|3/8|to|16|in|mm|2|abbr=on}}. Pipes are extruded and are generally available in: {{convert|3|m|ft|2|abbr=on}}, {{convert|4|m|ft|2|abbr=on}}, {{convert|5|m|ft|2|abbr=on}}, and {{convert|6|m|ft|2|abbr=on}} straight lengths and {{convert|25|m|ft|2|abbr=on}}, {{convert|50|m|ft|2|abbr=on}}, {{convert|100|m|ft|2|abbr=on}}, and {{convert|200|m|ft|2|abbr=on}} coils for LDPE and HDPE.

[https://yazdpolymer.com/polymer-pipes-and-fittings/ Polymer Pipe and fittings] are moulded and come in many sizes: tee 90° equal (straight and reducing), tee 45°, cross equal, elbow 90° (straight and reducing), elbow 45°, short radius bend 90° socket/coupler (straight and reducing), union, end caps, reducing bush, and stub, full face, and blanking flanges.

Valves are moulded and also come in many types: [[ball valve]]s (also multiport valve), [[butterfly valve]]s, spring-, ball-, and swing-check non-return valves, [[diaphragm valve]]s, knife gate valve, [[globe valve]]s and pressure relief/reduction valves.

Accessories are solvents, cleaners, glues, clips, backing rings, and gaskets.
