PVC-U Pressure Pipe

PVC-U Pressure Pipe

Our PVC-U pipes offer a range of key benefits for use across the water industry, including fatigue resistance and strength that ensures a long service life in water applications.

PVC-U is lightweight and offers an extremely smooth bore together with precision joints, providing unrivaled hydraulic capacity.

  • Sizes from DN15 to DN375.

  • Pressures from PN6 to PN18.

  • High toughness and strength.

  • Corrosion resistant for a variety of applications.

  • Light weight for more efficient installation.

  • Available in RRJ or SWJ.

Overview

It is corrosion resistant and the solvent cement joint system virtually eliminates tree root intrusion, leakage or ground water infiltration.

We offer a wide range of other high performance PVC pipe systems, including our collection of PVC-O and PVC-M pipes for use in both pressure and non-pressure applications.
