General Features Specifications: These characteristics are of even greater importance to engineers that to carry out supply and sewerage schemes, industrial plant installations, etc. At a minimum cost and maximum reliability. 1- Light Weight: UPVC pipes are incredible light. Their specific weight is one fifth of steel pipe. This cuts down transportation coasts and facilitates the installation of pipes reduces its cost. 2- Ease to Install: UPVC pipes are quick and easy to install, with a complete of fittings, using solvent cement or rubber joints. Joints are leakproof. UPVC Pipes can be cut easily for installation. . 3- Ease of Maintenance: UPVC pipes can be quickly repaired with a minimum of complication or cost. 4- Non â?? corrosion: UPVC pipes resist corrosion caused by acid , alkalis, oils, moisture and the media inside and outside the pipe . It is particularly reliable for resistance to the severe climatic and soil conditions. 5- Sanitary: UPVC pipes are entirely non-toxic . It will not affect the taste, smell or colour of water or liquid nor react with any liquid to cause a precipitant. 6- Low Flow Loss: UPVC pipes have a mirror-smooth surface which minimize and impede deposits and corrosive scales. 7- Mechanical Strength: UPVC pipes have a great tensile strength yet they are flexible enough to withstand displacement in the pipeline .They will not dent or flatten under pressure. 8- Fire Resistance: UPVC pipes will not support combustion. In the event of fire, flames are unable travel along the pipe . It is self extinguishing. 9- Insulator: UPVC pipes are ideal for electric conduits. Because UPVC in itself is an integral insulator, it climates the possibility of electrolytic corrosion which so often destroys underground piping.
