Steelex upvc pipe 4″ sch40

Summary Steelex upvc pipe 4″ sch40 ?

The Steelex 4″ Sch 40 UPVC Pipe provides a reliable, high-pressure solution for fluid conveyance systems, offering superior strength, corrosion resistance, and chemical resistance.
Professionals widely use it in water supply, irrigation, drainage, and industrial systems due to its pressure rating of 220 PSI.
Its ease of installation, combined with its long lifespan, makes it a highly cost-effective and durable choice for various high-pressure applications.

• Material: Un plasticized Polyvinyl Chloride (UPVC)
• Nominal Size: 4 inches
• Schedule Rating: Schedule 40 (indicating thicker walls and higher pressure capacity)
• Pressure Rating: Approximately 220 PSI at 73??F (23??C)
• ASTM Standard: Conforms to ASTM D1785 (Standard Specification for PVC Plastic Pipe, Schedules 40, 80, and 120)
• Color: Usually white or light gray

Features:

• High Pressure Rating: Designed to handle pressures up to 220 PSI, making it suitable for a wide variety of high-pressure applications.
• Corrosion Resistance: UPVC does not corrode or degrade when exposed to water, chemicals, or outdoor conditions, unlike metal pipes.
• Lightweight: Much lighter than metal pipes, making it easier to transport and install, reducing overall labor costs.
• Smooth Inner Surface: Provides low friction and efficient flow, which helps reduce pressure losses in fluid transport systems.
• Chemical Resistance: UPVC is resistant to a wide range of chemicals, making it ideal for use in industrial applications where exposure to corrosive substances is a concern.
• Safe for Potable Water: UPVC does not leach harmful chemicals into the water, ensuring safety for drinking water systems.

Pressure Rating (PSI):

The Steelex 4″ Sch 40 UPVC pipe has a pressure rating of 220 PSI (pounds per square inch) at a standard temperature of 73??F (23??C). However, as temperatures increase, the pressure capacity decreases slightly. For instance:

• At 80??F (27??C), the pressure capacity may decrease to around 200 PSI.
• At 100??F (38??C), the pressure rating will further reduce.

This makes it suitable for high-pressure water supply and fluid conveyance in residential, commercial, and industrial applications.
