We all Make.

By Makers, for Makers

Since 2009, FORMUFIT has been dedicated to providing the tools and materials makers need to bring their ideas to life. Founder Joe Cushing got his start doing projects out of PVC pipe and hardware store fittings, just like many of our customers do today. However, the plumbing-grade fittings available at the time didn't hold up to increasingly complex projects. They also weren't attractive or flexible in their roles and looked improvised or unfinished. So Joe set out to build something makers could rely on: fittings and pipe that could create beautiful, durable PVC projects.

The Difference

Understanding the difference between FORMUFIT and other PVC products is simple:

FORMUFIT PVC pipe and fittings available in multiple colors

Glossy & Smooth Surfaces

FORMUFIT PVC fittings, pipe, and accessories have a high gloss and smooth finish and are quintessential for professional & maker projects.

FORMUFIT FAQ.

Easily explore FAQs, product details, or general info with collapsible content.

FORMUFIT is a Kansas-based manufacturer of furniture-grade Schedule 40 PVC pipe and fittings, designed for structural, DIY, and maker projects rather than plumbing use.

Yes. FORMUFIT Furniture Grade PVC Fittings work with standard plumbing-grade Schedule 40 PVC pipe from any hardware store, though FORMUFIT's own pipe avoids the yellowing, brittleness, and printed markings common to plumbing-grade pipe.

FORMUFIT is headquartered in Lenexa, Kansas, with manufacturing and fulfillment across facilities in Florida, Alabama, and Kansas.

FORMUFIT products have a glossy, smooth finish, no manufacturer markings or stampings, tapered fitting ends with sockets about 20% longer than standard, and UV-resistant, impact-resistant construction that resists yellowing and fading.
