International Plastics Unplasticised Polyvinyl Chloride pvc-u Manuale Utente
Unplasticised Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC-U) is the most
widely used of all plastics used for pipe installations. It is
rigid, versatile, and is suitable for both above or below
ground installations.
widely used of all plastics used for pipe installations. It is
rigid, versatile, and is suitable for both above or below
ground installations.
It has excellent chemical resistance which, when
combined with smoothness of bore, eliminates build up of
scale and gives good flow characteristics. It is odourless
and tasteless, and is suitable for conveying potable water
and many food or dairy products.

and many food or dairy products.
PVC-U is suitable for use at temperatures from 0˚C to 60˚C
at a wide range of operating pressures, depending upon
the system chosen. It is lightweight and easy to install,
using cold solvent welded joints which require no special
tools.
