Detailed Product Description
PPR-FB-PPR Pipe
PPR-FB pipes installation does not differ from the installation of polypropy-lene pipes ,the same equipment and skills are required.
1. Improved mechanical resistibility
he essential difference of the pipes is their good mechanical resistibility even under high temperatures. On the diagram below you see the advantages of the new pipes over the pipes of other materials . PPR-FB-PPR pipes can bear much higher pressures, and with the growth of temperatures this ability does not decrease so sharply as with other types of pipes.
2. Improved pressure resistance
Scientific tests have proved that PPR-FB-PPR pipes reveal high pressure resistance and the coefficient of resistance is 25% higher than of ordinary polypropylene pipes.
3. Better thermal resistance .
The PPR-FB-PPR pipes can stand the rise of temperature up to 145C, which is 30 degrees higher than with ordinary polypropylene pipes. This quality meets the American standard ASTM D-646 Lab. Such a variety of working temperatures makes it possible to use the new pipes in hot countries, as well as in countries with cold climate.
4. Ultra-violet protection.
Specific additives included into polypropylene in the process of extrusion protect the outer layer from ultra-violet radiation; ordinary polypropylene pipes lack this feature.Such peculiarity makes it possible to use the new pipes much longer and to install them outside the buildings.
5. Low thermal expansion coefficient.
Thermal expansion coefficient of this pipe is 4 times lower than that of ordinary PPR pipes.
