Technical characteristics of plastic pipes .Their size and weight

size, weight and specifications of plastic pipes

The use of lightweight components for industrial and residential areas promote the use of their consumers who do not have a technical background, independently and at home.

diameters metal pipes

Manufacturers of building materials to create a design with outer diameter range from 16 to 63 mm.The most common are considered to Ø 16, 20, 26 mm.To create a tap in the conventional flat wiring as typically used composite pipes having a size of 16 or 20 mm.With the combination of materials of different sizes you can achieve the best functional outcome for repair.

Weight composition pipe

Weight-PEX pipes at the moment has no precise standards on GOST, in this regard, to calculate the weight of the formula is used.Typically, the marking applied to the pipe weight not specified, but on the basis of data provided by the manufacturer to determine the weight is easy.We offer to pay attention to the technical characteristics of plastic pipes, mixed by for easy use and given in the table below.

TIP:

Please note that metal pipes are selected on the outside diameter, as opposed to metal.The wall thickness is also significant, without the knowledge of their width, the probability of error, choose the wrong valves and fittings.

marking plastic pipes

With self-purchase of products made of metal is necessary to correctly decipher the information contained in the marking is applied to the pipe.

Manufacturers usually indicate:

  1. manufacturer name
  2. Certificate Number conformity
  3. Designation of material used
  4. Specifications for the production of
  5. method polyethylene crosslinking
  6. outer diameter and wall thickness of the pipe
  7. transported medium
  8. Optionsexploitation
  9. date of manufacture

We recall the advantages of plastic pipes:

  1. -corrosion ability;
  2. Flexibility and ease of installation;
  3. Lightweight composition pipe;
  4. Long service life;
  5. increased bandwidth, unlike metal pipes;
  6. wide range of applications in various areas;
  7. affordability.

On the downside can also be attributed only consequences of improper use of materials, such as protection from surges temperatures, prolonged exposure to sunlight and pre-ground organization for the potential equalization within the planned pipeline.
