Thick wall PVC pipe, that is, polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipe with a large wall thickness, is a plastic pipe material widely used in many fields.
What is Thick wall pvc pipe?
Thick wall pvc pipe, that is, polyvinyl chloride pipe with a large wall thickness, is a plastic pipe made by extrusion molding. Its main raw material is polyvinyl chloride resin, and various auxiliary materials such as stabilizers and lubricants are added to ensure the durability and stability of the pipe. This pipe material has many advantages, such as heat resistance, insulation, pressure resistance, impact resistance, etc., which makes it widely used in many fields.
Performance advantages
1. Heat resistance: Thick wall pvc pipe, especially PVC-C pipe, has a heat resistance temperature of 15 ° C higher than that of ordinary UPVC pipe, can maintain no deformation under 105 °C environment, and has sufficient strength.
2. Insulation performance: PVC-C power pipe can withstand high pressure of more than 30,000 volts, showing excellent insulation performance.
3. Compressive performance: After material modification, the ring stiffness of the pipe has been significantly improved, which is significantly higher than the regulations of the relevant national departments that the ring stiffness of buried plastic pipes should be above 8kpa.
4. High impact strength: Thick wall pvc pipe can withstand the impact of a 1kg weight and a height of 2m at a temperature of 0°C, showing good low-temperature impact performance.
5. Flame retardant properties: Both PVC and PVC-C materials have good flame retardant properties and can be extinguished immediately after leaving the fire. Especially for PVC-C materials, since the chlorine content is significantly higher than PVC, the flame retardancy and smoke density index are significantly improved.
Application areas
1. Building drainage and water supply: Thick wall PVC pipe is often used in the drainage and water supply systems of buildings. It can drain water quickly and effectively without being corroded by chemicals in the water.
2. Agricultural irrigation: It is often used in the agricultural field as the main pipe of the irrigation system to meet the irrigation needs of farmland.
3. Industrial application: In chemical plants, it is used for chemical substance transportation; in industrial production processes, it is used for wastewater treatment; in industrial mines, it is used as a discharge pipeline.
4. Power protection: Thick-walled PVC power pipes are often used as protective tubes for power cables because of their excellent insulation properties and pressure resistance.
Purchase and installation
Purchase: When purchasing thick wall pvc pipe, you should pay attention to its material, wall thickness, length, color and other parameters, and choose according to the specific use environment and needs. At the same time, you should ensure that the purchased pipes meet national or industry standards.
Installation: The installation should follow relevant standards and specifications to ensure the quality of installation. During the installation process, you should pay attention to the connection method, fixing method and sealing performance of the pipe.
In summary, thick wall pvc pipe plays an important role in many fields such as construction, agriculture, and industry with its excellent performance characteristics and wide application fields. When purchasing and installing, you should pay attention to its quality and performance to ensure that it meets the use requirements.
