Pili increases the bacterial ability to adhere to tissues and colonise by multiplying rapidly. Bacteria without fimbriae or pili are generally non-pathogenic.

They are sometimes called "sex pili", in analogy to sexual reproduction, because they allow for the exchange of genes via the formation of "mating pairs".
