Chlorinated Poly (Vinyl Chloride) or CPVC pipe and fittings are made to surpass the quality we’ve grown used to with PVC. These fittings just like the pipes have the qualities that make them the new standard for potable water distribution, handling of corrosive fluid in the chemical industry and are part of the standard fire suppression system in construction.
CPVC piping and fittings are praised for their environmental friendliness because of its inherent durability allowing for longer service life and are corrosion resistant. They are also very easy to install and work with. It’s not surprising the CPCV made pipes and fittings are widely accepted by safety and handling codes set by construction standards.
Diverse Selection of CPVC pipe fittings are ideal for hot and cold water distribution with the ability to bear up to 400 psi pressure rating at room temperature. They are able to hold 100 psi pressure at 180ºF.
Because they are resistant to most everyday household chemicals, they are ideal for residential use. One special quality the CPCV has for pipes and fittings is that they’re not inherently combustible. That means without an external source of fire, they naturally do not burn up by itself. And even if they are exposed to heat and flame, they naturally expunge them.
CPVC pipe fittings are the preferred kind of fittings that match their counterpart pipes in both material and design. They allow for varied diameters from ¼” to 12″ following the Standard Dimension Ratio or SDR including those from Sch 40 and Sch 80.
