Plastic pipes are cylindrical and hollow and have tubular sections. They allow the flow of fluids, such as water and slurries, gases, small masses of solids, and powders. Plastic hot and cold pipes are used for water plumbing, radiator connection, and underfloor surface heating and cooling applications. They are made of materials such as cross-linked polyethylene (PEX), polyethylene-raised temperature (PE-RT), polypropylene random copolymer (PPR), chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (C-PVC), and polybutylene (PB).
The most suitable pipes for hot and cold water supply and heating systems are cross-linked polyethylene (PEX) or solid wall polybutylene pipes, multi-layer pipes, and barrier pipes. They are often available in straight lengths or coiled shapes with nominal diameters ranging from 10 mm to 110 mm. Plastic pipes offer many advantages over steel, cast iron, and copper pipes. One of the prime advantages is that plastic is simple to cut and transform into any shape or size on the job site, reducing the labor costs required for their installation.
