What does PVC stand for pipe?

PVC represents a pipe made of polyvinyl chloride resin,PVC is short for Polyvinylchlorid, the main component of polyvinyl chloride, adding other ingredients to enhance its heat resistance, toughness, ductility of a material. The top layer of this surface film is lacquer, the main component in the middle is polyvinyl chloride, and the bottom layer is backcoated adhesive.

PVC pipe models and specifications

PVC models and specifications mainly include PVC water supply pipes, PVC drainage pipes, PVC wire pipes, PVC agricultural irrigation pipes, etc. The specific specifications are as follows:

PVC water supply pipe specifications include DN15 (nominal diameter 15mm), DN20, DN25, DN32, DN40, DN50, DN65, DN80, DN100, DN125, DN150, DN200, etc. The wall thickness of these specifications of PVC water supply pipes varies according to the use pressure to meet the needs of different occasions.

PVC drainage pipe specifications include DN50, DN75, DN100, DN125, DN150, DN200, DN250, DN300, DN400, etc. The wall thickness of PVC drainage pipes also varies according to the use occasions to ensure the normal operation of the drainage system.

PVC wire pipe specifications include Φ16, Φ20, Φ25, Φ32, Φ40, Φ50, etc. The wall thickness and length of these specifications of PVC electrical conduit can be customized according to actual needs to ensure the safety and reliability of electrical lines.

The specifications of PVC agricultural irrigation pipes include DN20, DN25, DN32, DN40, etc. These specifications of PVC agricultural irrigation pipes generally have a larger flow rate and lower resistance to meet the needs of agricultural irrigation.

Selecting the appropriate PVC pipe specifications is crucial to ensuring the performance and safety of the piping system. Too small a pipe diameter may result in insufficient flow, while too large a pipe diameter may cause a waste of resources. Therefore, when selecting PVC pipes, it is necessary to comprehensively consider factors such as actual use conditions, flow requirements, soil properties, etc., and select the most suitable specifications.

How high temperature can PVC pipe withstand

There are hard PVC pipes and soft PVC pipes, and their high temperature resistance is different. Hard PVC pipes can withstand high temperatures of 70°, and soft PVC pipes can withstand high temperatures of 55°. Normal standards stipulate that the use temperature should not be higher than 45°C. Beyond this temperature, the performance of the pipe will decrease rapidly, and the higher the temperature, the easier it is to crack. If it is at high temperatures for a long time, it is easy to cause aging and damage to the pipe body, greatly reducing the service life.

If it is at high temperatures for a long time, it is easy to cause aging and damage to the pipe body, greatly reducing the service life. If it is higher than 90°C, it will begin to decompose slightly, release gas, and dissolve in water, which will be harmful to the human body. When using water pipes, it is best to understand the temperature resistance of the water pipes first to avoid damage to the pipes due to excessive temperature of the conveying medium.

How many meters is a PVC pipe

The standard length of PVC pipes is usually 4 meters, and each bundle contains 100 meters.

As a common pipeline material, the length standard of PVC pipes is relatively uniform in the market. Most PVC pipes on the market are 4 meters long. This standard length is suitable for a variety of application scenarios, including but not limited to drainage, water supply, wiring, etc. However, there are also some manufacturers that produce PVC pipes with a length of about 3 meters. These PVC pipes of different lengths can be selected according to specific needs to meet different project requirements.
