Today, more PVC Pipes are being used than any other pipe product.
Characteristics
PVC is a thermosetting plastic. In other words, it can only be softened and molded into form once. If
it is softened and remolded a second time it will lose some of it's favorable characteristics. Recently,
'Fuseable PVC' has come to market to compete with the fuseable properties of HDPE Pipe.
PVC is very corrosion resistant. It is not a conductor and will not have an electrochemical reaction
with acids and bases that it comes in contact with. For this reason, PVC is sometimes used to coat
other materials for protection.
PVC also has a high chemical resistance. While it will react with some chemicals, there are a large
number of chemicals it will not react with, making it an excellent product for industrial applications.
PVC is not without it's faults. Studies have shown that UV radiation from sunlight not only discolors
the pipe, but also reduces it's impact strength.
PVC Sizes
The deeper you delve into pipe sizing and nomenclature, the more confused you get. This is because
as new materials have been developed over the years they tried to keep the outside diameter (OD)
the same and adjust the inside diameter (ID) to meet the characteristics of the new material.
Most PVC Pipe uses the Nominal Pipe Size (NPS) system. The characteristics for NPS pipe under 14"
in diameter have no logical explanation...data must be looked up on a chart.14" and larger NPS pipe
has an outside diameter equal to the pipe size.
The 'Schedule' system (Schedule 40, 80, etc.) is an NPS system. The dimensions of PVC schedule pipe
matches those of steel pipe. The steel pipe sizes were developed long before PVC was
invented...thus the PVC pipe was sized to match the steel pipe.
There are a couple of non-NPS systems that should be noted. Ductile Iron Pipe Size (DIPS) is a
system used for ductile iron pipe...it is derived from the original size of cast iron pipe, which has all
but completely been replaced by ductile iron pipe. C900 PVC pipe uses the DIPS system. Ductile Iron
Pipe and C900 PVC Pipe are major components of municipal water distribution systems...so having
uniform size enables the use of fittings, valves and tapping saddles on both types of pipe.
PVC Pipe Uses
Because PVC is mostly a 'rigid' pipe product, PVC pipe is an excellent pipe choice for just about any
application that does not require a 'flexible' solution. The most common uses for PVC are:

Water Distribution

Underground Fire Main Distribution

Gravity Sanitary Sewer Collection

Forcemain Sewerage Transmission

Irrigation Mains

Reclaimed Water Distribution

Electrical & Communications Conduit

Numerous Industrial Applications

PVC Pipe fittings are integral and essential part of PVC piping systems. These are required where
ever PVC pipes are used.
The efficiency of various PVC piping systems depend largely upon the quality of the fittings used in
pipe assembly. The most commonly used PVC pipe fittings are Sockets, Tees elbows, Bends, Joints
etc..
PVC pipes are fast replacing the conventional metallic pipes in many applications such as electrical
conduits, irrigation, sanitary fittings, portable water etc. They are also used in tube wells and due to
their chemical resistance properties they find applications in chemical plants too.
Over 70% of India's rural population does not have access to safe drinking water. Villagers have
to trek for miles to get water. It is estimated that at least 24 million people are living at risk in about
34,000 cholera, endemic villages, and small towns. The magnitude of the problem is so enormous
that it is essential to have a high performance and low cost scheme to convey extensively the
water now available to as many villages as possible. Such as system is now possible with PVC pipe
lines. PVC can replace conventional materials like steel, cast iron and asbestos cement and in
advanced countries it has already done so.
HDPE Pipes and fittings have a high degree of Corrosion resistance are height in weight, yet tough
and durable have excellent, hydraulic properties, excellent thermal properties, weather ability
HDPE Pipes & Fittings are used in various field viz agricultural and industry.
