The widespread application and main characteristics of water supply pipes


The development of plastic pipes in China is rapid, and the quality is constantly improving. Among them, polyethylene PE water supply pipes are widely used due to their unique advantages. Mainly used for building water supply, building drainage, building heating, gas pipelines, buried drainage pipes, electrical and telecommunications protective sleeves, PE steel skeleton composite pipes, agricultural and industrial pipes, etc. It has played an important role in urban water supply, urban gas supply, and farmland irrigation. Water supply pipe materials have the advantages of high strength, corrosion resistance, and non-toxicity, and are widely used in the field of water supply pipe manufacturing. Because it does not rust, it is an ideal pipeline to replace ordinary iron water supply pipes. Let's take a look at the widespread application and main characteristics of PVC water supply pipes together.

PVC water supply pipes are mainly made of sanitary grade polyvinyl chloride resin as the main raw material, and added with quantitative stabilizers, lubricants, fillers, colorants, etc. They are extruded by a plastic extruder, molded by an injection molding machine, then cooled and solidified. They are produced through processes such as molding, inspection, and packaging. Material characteristics of PVC water supply pipes: PVC has excellent chemical resistance throughout the entire working temperature range and a wide working pressure range. Due to its long-term high strength characteristics, rigidity, and cost-effectiveness, it occupies a considerable proportion in the installation of plastic pipelines.

1. The weight of PVC water supply pipe products is relatively light and easy to load and unload: low density, convenient construction.

2. Excellent corrosion resistance: With excellent acid resistance, alkali resistance, and corrosion resistance, it is very suitable for the chemical industry.

3. PVC water supply pipe has low fluid resistance: the inner wall of the pipe is very smooth, the roughness coefficient is small, and the fluid resistance is also small, which can effectively improve the hydraulic conditions of the pipeline network and reduce the operating cost of the system.

4. High mechanical strength: The tube has good pressure resistance, outstanding impact and tensile strength performance.

5. Simple construction: Pipeline connection construction is very fast and convenient, and the cost of engineering construction is low.

6. PVC water supply pipes have low cost: they are relatively inexpensive, convenient for transportation and construction, and have a long service life, therefore the overall cost is low.

7. PVC water supply pipes do not affect water quality: dissolution tests have proven that they do not affect water quality and are suitable for large-scale applications.
