A 1 1/2″ CPVC Pipe is a chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC) pipe designed for hot and cold water distribution systems, industrial piping, and chemical applications. It is known for its high-temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, and durability compared to standard PVC pipes.
Key Features:
✅ Size: 1 1/2 inches (nominal bore)
✅ Material: CPVC (Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride) – Enhanced strength and heat resistance
✅ Standard Lengths: Typically available in 3m, 5m, or 6m lengths
✅ Wall Thickness & Pressure Rating:
-
SDR 11 or SDR 13.5 (varies based on pressure requirements)
-
Can handle hot water applications up to 200°F (93°C)
✅ Usage Applications: -
Hot & cold water supply (residential and commercial)
-
Industrial fluid transport
-
Fire suppression & sprinkler systems
-
Chemical-resistant pipelines
✅ Benefits: -
Corrosion-resistant – Does not rust or scale like metal pipes
-
Lightweight & easy to install – Requires CPVC solvent cement for strong joints
-
High-temperature & pressure handling
