PVC PIPE SCH80

PVC AND CPVC SCH80 PIPE IPEX BRAND PVC ( Polyvinyl Chloride) PVC is the most frequently specified of all thermoplastic piping materials. It has been successfully for over 60 years. PVC is characterized by distinctive physical properties, and is resistant to corrosion and chemical attack by acids, alkalis, salt solutions and many other chemicals. It is attacked, however, by polar solvents such as ketones and aromatics. Of the various types and grades of PVC used in plastic piping, Type 1, Grade 1 PVC ( Cell Classification 12454) conforming to ASTM D1784, is the most common. The maximum service temperature for PVC is 140° F ( 60° C) , under pressure with occasional exposure to boiling water ( 212° F, 100° C) . With a hydrostatic strength of any other major thermoplastic material used for piping. CPVC ( Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride) CPVC ( Cell Classification 24448 and 23447) conforming to ASTM D1748 has physical properties at 73° F ( 23° C) similar to those of PVC and chemical resistance similar to or generally better than that of PVC. The design stress of CPVC is also 2, 000 psi at 73° F ( 23° C) . The maximum service temperature is 200° F ( 93° C) under pressure with occasional exposure to boiling water ( 212° F, 100° C) . CPVC has proved to be an excellent piping material for hot corrosive liquids, hot and cold water distribution and similar applications above the temperature range of PVC.
