All About UPVC Column Pipes

Author: Nirav Patel

Also known as rigid PVC, UPVC is made up of amorphous thermoplastic resin of vinyl chloride monomer, obtained through polymerization reaction by adding certain additives such as stabilizers, lubricants, fillers, etc. In addition to these additives, UPVC is blended with other modified resins. These resins (e.g. CPVC, PE, ABS, EVA etc.) maintain high viscosity even under high temperatures. So how is a UPVC Pipe different from PVC Pipe?

PVC-U Pipe and UPVC Column Pipes – The Difference

  • Construction Angle : PVC-U is widely used for constructing water supply and drainage embedded ray tubes. The main construction method involves hot melt adhesive and is thus not easy to install or construct. UPVC Column pipe, on the other hand, is widely used in the construction of water supply, drainage, sewer, etc. It is far easier to install, available in flange, and can be constructed without limitations.

  • Design Selection : PVC is generally used in the construction of water supply and drainage. They are lightweight, durable, bright and smooth, and have excellent physical and chemical properties. On the other hand, UPVC Column Pipe prevents dryness, corrosion, has a high mechanical strength, is non-toxic and ensures water tightness.

Properties Of UPVC Column Pipes

Here are a few important properties of UPVC Column Pipe:

  • UPVC Column Pipes never deteriorate from bacteria and other microorganism. Thus they work extremely well in agricultural fields, where different fertilizers and chemicals are used.
  • UPVC does not rust or corrode even under the harshest of weather condition. It never fades away and stays good for years to come.
  • In case of scratch, the surface of a UPVC Column Pipe can be easily polished.
  • They are durable, lightweight and recyclable.

Application of UPVC Column Pipe

UPVC Column Pipes are suitable for transporting water, chemicals across various fields such as:

  • Sewage and Industrial Disposal,
  • Abrasive Slurries,
  • Transportation Of Acids,
  • Venting System
