Vectus ASTM Pipes and Fittings (also known as uPVC pipes and fittings) are the most suitable, easy, and economical solution for the distribution of potable water. ASTM Pipes are technically superior, cost-effective, and offer many advantages over conventional G.I. piping systems. uPVC Pipes and fittings are very easy to install and functionally most suitable for cold water plumbing applications. This hygienic system is endowed with many good features. It is a value-added long term plumbing solution for the building industry, residential and offices.
These uPVC pipes and fittings are non-toxic and lead-free which makes them safe for carrying potable water. The jointing process for uPVC pipes/ASTM pipes and fittings is accomplished quickly and easily using inexpensive tools; hence, reducing labor and installation cost. Vectus uPVC pipes are manufactured as per ASTM D 1785 and uPVC fittings are manufactured as per ASTM D 2467 wherein, pipes are available in SCH 40 and SCH 80.
The available range of uPVC pipes and fittings varies from 15 mm to 100 mm with threaded and non-threaded options. uPVC Pipes are extremely resistant to chemicals, abrasion, and corrosion. They can bear pressure and hence do not break down under the toughest of conditions. Its internal smooth surface reduces friction and hence prevents internal rusting and also helps maintain the durability of the pipes. Moreover, due to its low thermal conductivity, it is very energy efficient.
Benefits of Vectus uPVC pipes and fittings -
Lightweight:- These pipes are also strong and ultra-light in weight which makes the overall handling and installation way too easy.
UV resistant:- uPVC pipes are made of UV-resistant materials and do not lose this property even after exposure to intense sunlight.
Simple and leak-proof joints:- Jointing of uPVC pipes and fittings can be done speedily with the special solvent cement supplied by the company which ensures 100% leak-proof joints.
Optimum flow rates:- Smooth inner surfaces of Vectus uPVC pipes ensure high flow rates and low frictional losses. This system is free from rusting and offers good resistance to scale formation.
