Description
Premium Metric Pressure Pipe manufactured from PVCu is designed to comply with British Standards and is rated to 10 Bar at 20°C. This pipe meets the requirements of the Water Regulations Advisory Scheme for potable water and adheres to EEC safety standards for Vinyl Chloride Monomer (VCM).
With a temperature resistance range from 5°C to 60°C and exceptional abrasion and corrosion resistance, our PVCu fittings are an ideal alternative to metal systems, offering savings in labor, maintenance, and materials. The lightweight design ensures ease of installation with only basic tools, and the exceptional chemical resistance makes it suitable for various applications.
PVCu is widely recognized as one of the most popular thermoplastic materials for pipework installations. The tasteless and odorless properties of PVCu make it perfect for use in potable water systems and many food applications. Its extremely smooth bore provides excellent flow characteristics without sediment or deposit buildup.
