What this pipe is used for
Every application below is one the PVC-U Pressure Pipe is specified for, with the manufacturer's note that supports it.
Drinking-water supply
Most ideal for carrying drinking water as they are not subjected to contamination.
High-pressure water supply
Nominal pressures PN6 to PN20, up to 20 bar at 20°C.
Industrial or infrastructure projects
Immune to chemical, electrolytic and galvanic action, and self-extinguishing, which eliminates the need for fire resistant coatings.

Advantages
Odourless and hygienic
These pipes are most ideal for carrying drinking water as they are not subjected to contamination.
High corrosion resistance
Being immune to chemical, electrolytic and galvanic action these pipes are free from corrosion.
High chemical resistance
Pipes offer excellent resistance to acids, oxidizing agents, alkalis, oils and domestic effluents.
Smooth bore
Pipes have a smooth inside surface and hence better flow characteristics in comparison to conventional drainage pipes.
Self-extinguishing quality
This eliminates the need for fire resistant coatings.
Maintenance free
Corrosion resistance property of the PVC-U pipes eliminates the need for painting or coating.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 20°C | 6.0 bar | 8.0 bar | 10 bar | 12.5 bar | 16 bar | 20 bar |
| 30°C | 5.1 bar | 7.0 bar | 8.9 bar | 11 bar | 14 bar | 16.2 bar |
| 40°C | 4.1 bar | 5.5 bar | 7.0 bar | 8.8 bar | 11 bar | 14.0 bar |
| 50°C | 3.5 bar | 4.5 bar | 5.0 bar | 7.1 bar | 9.1 bar | 10.5 bar |
For temperatures greater than 20°C, the maximum working pressures of PVC pipes should be reduced.
