Catalogue advantages
Odourless and hygienic
These pipes are most ideal for carrying drinking water as they are not subjected to contamination.
High corrosion resistance
Being immune to chemical, electrolytic and galvanic action these pipes are free from corrosion.
High chemical resistance
Pipes offer excellent resistance to acids, oxidizing agents, alkalis, oils and domestic effluents.
Smooth bore
Pipes have a smooth inside surface and hence better flow characteristics in comparison to conventional drainage pipes.
Self-extinguishing quality
This eliminates the need for fire resistant coatings.
Maintenance free
Corrosion resistance property of the PVC-U pipes eliminates the need for painting or coating.

| 50°C | 3.5 bar | 4.5 bar | 5.0 bar | 7.1 bar | 9.1 bar | 10.5 bar |
For temperatures greater than 20°C, the maximum working pressures of PVC pipes should be reduced.
