Benefits Of Using Pipe Fittings Made From PVC Compound
The benefits and applications of PVC compound are so expansive that its impact on various industries is undeniable. In addition to being a highly cost-effective compound, its durability and versatility make it the ideal solution for industrial and home applications. PVC Pipe Fittings has become essential in modern construction projects, and there are various reasons why it is a preferred solution – today we’ll cover a few of the main ones.
Highly Chemical Resistant
There is little to no risk of pipe fittings made from PVC compound suffering damage or wear and tear due to exposure to harsh chemicals. Several tests have indicated that PVC compounds are almost entirely impermeable and resistant to strong acids, fluorides, aliphatic hydrocarbons, brine, alkalis, mineral oils, fats, alcohols, and various cleaning detergents. This makes it a perfect solution for water infrastructure creation as it will tolerate virtually all substances typically found in sewerage or refiltered tap water.
Tolerate Pressure Better Underground
Unlike traditional piping materials such as concrete, ceramic or clay pipes that crack or shatter with prolonged pressure, the nature of PVC compound (made from rigid injection compounds) makes it more flexible when moderate pressure is applied to it.
Invulnerable To Corrosion
Corrosion has become an increasing problem in terms of supplying clean drinking water because older piping solutions such as ceramic, concrete and various metal-based pipes eventually begin to degrade through corrosion and release micro contaminant materials into the water supply.
With PVC compound this isn’t an issue, as it is less vulnerable to both internal and external corrosion risks. In terms of corrosion damage when compared to breakage statistics in iron, concrete, steel and cement pipes, PVC pipe fittings have shown the least likelihood of suffering corrosion damage by a large margin.
