Article Introduction When it comes to plastic pipe fittings, PVC is the first word that comes to most people’s minds these days. PVC pipe fittings have been in use for over 50 years since their first manufacture. Plastics offer several advantages over metal pipes. PVC pipes are the first choice for plastic pipes and fittings. Also known as PolyvinylChloride, PVC is one of the most common thermoplastic polymers used all over the world. It is naturally white and very fragile plastic before the addition of plasticizers. PVC is generally produced in two forms a rigid or unplasticized polymer and another as a flexible plastic. PVC pipe fabrication involves shaping and assembling PVC pipes using techniques like cutting, welding, bending, and…
Article Introduction When it comes to pvc pipes and fittings, a tight connection between pvc pipes is crucial. Without the right bonding, your home could suffer from leaks, flooding, and water damage. Thankfully, joining PVC plastic pipes is easy and quick as long as you’re accurate and use the right glue, tools, and techniques.

Article Introduction In the last decade lifestyles have evolved and yesterday’s luxuries have now become basic needs. One example is bathing with hot water 365 days a year. With these evolving lifestyles, special attention needs to be given to the safe and durable use of appliances and associated accessories which deliver these services (hot water plumbing systems). A hot water bath not just gives us comfort, relaxes us but cleans us well around the year. Washing and cleaning becomes easier with hot water. Further, it is believed that a few glasses of warm water a day can help you maintain a robust health. Through the following article content, let you understand why CPVC pipe & fittings are the preferred choice…
Article Introduction PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) pipes are widely used in both residential and industrial applications due to their durability, affordability, and resistance to corrosion. Despite these benefits, PVC pipes can sometimes experience unwanted movement or shaking. This issue often arises from water pressure changes, mechanical vibrations, or thermal expansion. If left unaddressed, PVC pipe shaking can lead to excessive noise, wear and tear, and even damage to the piping system over time. In this article, we will explore the common causes of PVC pipe shaking and provide practical solutions how to keep PVC Pipe from shaking. Causes of PVC Pipe Shaking Understanding the causes of PVC pipe shaking is crucial for implementing effective solutions. Below are some of the most…
Article Introduction CPVC pipe is made from Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride compound, which is made from PVC resin. The CPVC resin is obtained by chlorination of PVC, to obtain a more stable polymer and overcome the limitations of PVC in terms of temperature resistance. The vicat softening temperature of CPVC Pipes is more than 110°C & the heat distortion temperature is in the range of 100-110°C, making it an ideal choice for both hot and cold water. Through the following article content, you can have a deeper understanding of CPVC pipes ! The Effects of Hot Water on Water Piping Many plastic piping systems can withstand cold water at high pressures. However, as the temperature of water rises, plastic materials start…
Article Introduction Cutting pvc pipe is a relatively easy task, but you’ll need the right tools to make a clean cut, CPVC and PVC are common types of rigid plastic pipe commonly used in home plumbing systems. The tools and techniques used to cut and prepare these pipes are similar. This guide outlines how to cut PVC pipe by choosing the best and safest methods based on the different PVC pipe sizes ! Choose Your Pipe 1. PVC pipe：Use PVC pipe for cold water, irrigation, main gas lines and drain-waste vents. PVC can become brittle with sun exposure. It’s available in 10-foot and 20-foot lengths that range from 1/2- to 6-inch diameters. Connect lengths for longer stretches with primer and…
Article Introduction In the pipe market, CPVC pipe’s main competitor is polypropylene (PPR pipe). PPR is relatively new to the market, which has some homeowners, plumbers and trades questioning which product is better for their homes. If you are considering CPVC pipes or PPR pipes for your piping system, the following article will give you some information on how to choose ! PPR Pipes vs CPVC Pipes Temperature resistance: CPVC pipes: The operating temperature of CPVC pipes can reach up to 93-100℃, which is 30-40℃ higher than PVC. It can withstand higher temperatures and is suitable for high temperature environments. PPR pipes: PPR pipes have excellent high temperature resistance and can be used for a long time…
Article Introduction In everyday life people often wonder, what is the difference between PVC and CPVC pipes and fittings? Is PVC a cheaper alternative? Can I substitute one for the other? Are the fittings the same size? How different will they be? The truth is, the two materials are quite different. We will start with some chemistry and then describe the various uses of each. PVC or UPVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) and UPVC (Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride) are synonyms. PVC is essentially a rigid material that uses plasticizers to make it softer. In this article, we will focus on the differences between UPVC and CPVC. What is PVC? & What is PVC pipe Used For ? The full form of PVC pipe…
Article Introduction PVC pipe is an affordable choice for home plumbing. It doesn’t corrode, is flexible and easy to install, and can be used with many different connections.
