UPVC Pipes Overview

Material: Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride (UPVC)
Key Features:

• Non-Corrosive: Resistant to acids, alkalis, oils, salts, and moisture. Ideal for Saudi Arabia’s severe climatic and soil conditions.
• Lightweight: Easy transportation and installation, leading to reduced costs.
• Sanitary: Does not affect the taste, smell, or color of liquids.
• High Mechanical Strength: Suitable for high-pressure applications.
• Fire Resistance: Self-extinguishing and does not support combustion.
• Ease of Installation: Leakproof joints with solvent cement or rubber ring options.

Advantages

• Corrosion Resistance: Immunity to corrosion enhances durability.
• Smooth Surface: Low flow loss due to minimized friction and scale build-up.
• Flexibility: Accommodates deformation, suitable for ground movements.
• Versatility: Can handle a wide range of applications from water supply to industrial use.

Technical Specifications

• Standard Length: 5.8m or 6m (custom lengths available on request).
• Pressure Ratings: Classes range from 2 bar to 25 bar, depending on diameter and wall thickness.
• Colors Available: Grey, white, black, blue, and orange (custom colors available).

Manufacturing Standards

• Compliance: Meets standards such as SASO, DIN 8062, ASTM D1785, and BS 3505/3506.
• Sizes: Outside diameters range from 12mm to 800mm.
• Socket Types: Solvent Cement (SC/J) or Rubber Joint (R/J).

Applications

• Water Supply: Corrosion-free, sanitary pipes for potable water.
• Irrigation: Ideal for agricultural and sprinkler systems.
• Industrial Use: Resistant to most chemicals, suitable for complex industrial piping.
• Drainage: Reliable for waste, sewer, and ventilation systems.
• Electrical Conduits: Acts as an insulator, preventing corrosion in underground applications.

Fittings

• Mechanical Joints: Provide reliable, leakproof connections using lip-seal rubber rings.
• Durability: Resistant to abrasion, biological attack, and sunlight (UV resistance can be improved with protection).
• Ease of Handling: Lightweight fittings simplify the transportation and installation process.

Special Features

• Customizable: Lengths, colors, and configurations can be tailored to project requirements.
• Sustainability: Durable and eco-friendly, suitable for long-term use with minimal maintenance.
