PP-R UV Composite Pipe
A four-layer 25 bar composite pipe with a UV-stabilised black outer layer, for pressure lines that run in the open.
PN12.5/25 · 25 bar · OD 20–110 mm · 4 m lengths
- UV-exposed and outdoor pressure lines
- Hot and cold water at high pressure
- Well water and industrial transfer
What this pipe is used for
Every application below is one the PP-R UV Composite Pipe is specified for, with the manufacturer's note that supports it.
Outdoor or UV-exposed installation
Made to be rigid and have memory while being protected from harmful UV rays; 25 bar rating.
High-pressure water supply
PN12.5/25 — 25 bar at 10°C–30°C, with UV protection.

- Manufactured as per KS ISO minimum requirements
- Composition
- 4 layers (outer layer mixture of PP-R and UV stabilizer & inner layer)
- Pressure rating
- 25 bar (PN12.5/25)
- Length
- 4 metres
- Colour
- Outer layer black, second layer white, third layer maroon & inner layer white
- Manufactured to
- KS ISO minimum requirements
Advantages
Protected against UV rays
The UV protected layer is comprised of UV resistant materials which protect the pipe from flaking when exposed to sunlight over time.
Rigid with memory
The composite material provides rigidity with memory to the pipes allowing them to be laid straighter.
Chemical & mechanical endurance
They offer very high resistance against abrasion by hard particles. This is especially important in cases of well water or industrial applications, where the transferred liquids may contain abrasive particles.
Corrosion and chemical resistance
These pipes are resistant to corrosion and aggressive environment; their transmission capacity is high due to smooth inner surface.
Durability
It can endure the temperature and pressure strain of hot water systems. At the same time it is able to structurally withstand impacts even in cold weather installations without any risk of cracking or breaking, unlike other common types of plastic piping.
