UPVC Pipes Features And Applications

In UPVC &#;U&#; indicates Unplasticized, thus UPVC is Unplasticized  Polyvinyl Chloride which means it is manufactured or prepared without using the plastic. In the manufacturing process of UPVC, several chemicals are added.  UPVC&#;s manufacturing process begins with the raw materials that are mixed accurately to make a potent resin compound, and then pick out in molds at high temperatures, and cast into a die where the profiles are shaped before they are cooled, tested, packed, and distributed for fabrication. Thus the UPVC becomes a rigid and hard material and that is why UPVC pipes can withstand all kinds of external and internal exertion. It can be said that rigidity is in its gene. Unplasticized PVC is considered one of the stiffest polymers across PVC group. These pipes are being used widely in several sectors such as manufacturing, construction, transportation of fluids, and the plumbing industry. Well Casing and Screen Pipes made of UPVC are an ideal product for the protection of domestic, irrigation, industrial, and mining bore wells, keeping out the gravel pack and foreign particles and providing clean and clear water from the bore wells and tube-wells.

FEATURES OF UPVC PIPE

UPVC pipes are flexible and have exceptional bendability which makes them suitable for handling during construction.These pipes are rustproof and UV-resistant and due to their high flexibility quality they become durable and worthy. UPVC pipes are cost-effective, leak-proof, lightweight, and require no special maintenance. UPVC pipes also have superb electrical properties and low flammability. In addition to it, these pipes are recyclable, fire-resistance, and sturdy in nature.  It is a well-proven and experienced fact that metal pipes react with several elements of nature thus making them unsuitable for plumbing works. Metal pipes are not rustproof and corrosion-resistant. The supplied water remains safe from impurities wherever a UPVC pipeline system is installed and applied. UPVC pipes are highly energy-efficient and possess flame-retardant properties that do not support combustion. Being antimicrobial, these pipes are also completely safe to carry drinking water.

UPVC pipes are absolutely eco-friendly and can function both in extreme cold and hot temperatures. These pipes are non-reactive and high temperatures resistant up to 60°C which makes them the best medium for supplying drinking and other types of water.

They are not only cost-effective but also last longer than any other pipeline materials. In addition to it, by using the UPVC pipes we may reduce transport and labor costs of installation.  UPVC pipes are completely lead-free making them ideal for supplying potable water.  UPVC pipes have anti-corrosion properties resisting chemicals to react with the material and that is why the water or gas remains unaffected inside the pipeline

APPLICATIONS OF UPVC PIPES

UPVC pipes are used for several kinds of plumbing needs in water supply systems such as supplying potable water in bathrooms, kitchens, sinks, laboratories, etc. These pipes can also be used as ventilation pipes for disposing of corrosive gases from washrooms. UPVC is used for manufacturing electrical conduits in the electric industry, UPVC pipes are used to fulfill plumbing needs across water supply systems. Besides, these are used for Tubework casting and manufacturing raising mains for hand pumps as well. UPVC pipes are immensely used in the agricultural sector for irrigation purposes.

The pipeline transposing crude oil and other edible fluids is also made of UPVC as it prevents corrosion within the pipeline.  For agricultural purposes, it has extensive use in irrigation applications. Thus, UPVC pipes are widely used across households and industrial sectors.

What Are The Advantages Of UPVC Pipe?

When it comes to choosing a pipe for domestic, commercial, or industrial purposes, plastic pipes are known for durability. The plastic pipes which are commonly used for industrial and residential purposes are PVC, HDPE, UPVC, and CPVC pipes. Out of them, today we will discuss the advantages of u-PVC pipes to understand why it is preferred over PVC and CPVC pipes.



What are UPVC pipes?


U-PVC pipes stand for unplasticized polyvinyl chloride pipes. These pipes are enormously used in buildings, for the supply of potable water. As the pipes do not contain BPA or phthalates, it is sturdier than PVC pipes. These pipes are not only used in bathroom and kitchen sinks, these are also used in industries for fulfilling the supply and demand of industrial effluents.

Advantages of uPVC Pipes


Durability


If you have ever seen someone living with leaky pipes, you would know how difficult it is to stay in moist or wet spaces. This is why choosing a pipe that has better durability is important in long run. uPVC pipes and fittings have higher tensile and impact strength that enhances their durability making them a long-lasting solution for all plumbing needs.


Non-toxic


These pipes are BFA free as mentioned above, which makes them completely safe for transporting drinking water. Needless to say, these pipes are safe to use in the health and hospitability business as these pipes do not carry contaminated water.


At Utkarsh India, we have uFLO-"Lead-free" UV resistant UPVC pipes that do not contaminate the liquid flowing from the pipes. This ensures fluids like industry effluents or water do not get contaminated when flowing through the pipes and ensure your water do not contain carcegonic compound like Lead.


Non-combustible, Better Fire-safety


When it comes to thinking about fire hazards, plumbing is the last thing one considers. Albeit plumbing does not help in initiating a fire, however, fires can start during maintenance or installation of new pipes, when plumbers perform soldering work. To avoid unwanted fire breakout, UPVC is the right fit for the home. It is a self-extinguishing material, it does not promote fire.


Leak-Resistance


The UPVC pipes are available in a range of sizes, this reduces the number of joints in the pipes, hence reducing the risk of leakage in the pipes. Furthermore, the pipes are joint with solvent instead of soldering or metalwork that keeps the risk of leak to a minimum.

These pipes do not shrink or break due to hot water or cold water. The pipes can withstand up to 93 degrees which makes them suitable for both hot and cold water.


Easy To Install


These pipes can be easily installed with a few simple steps. With the help of solvent and cementing, the pipes are chemically fused. When the pipes coalesce together, it forms a strong bond that enhances the strength and durability of the pipe. In addition to that, the pipes are light in weight and do not require any electricity during installation, which is helpful for areas with no electricity connections.


Hassle-Free Maintenance


Changing or repairing a pipe, again and again, is not one dream of while choosing a pipe. This is what, Utkarsh India thrives by, to provide a pipe that does not need maintenance in years. UPVC pipes are resistant to chemicals or rusting, it does not break or leak. It can withstand the change in temperature, which makes it hassle-free to maintain. Furthermore, these pipes are not prone to scaling, this means they do not require frequent cleaning making them easier to maintain.
