PVC

  • Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is a commonly used thermoplastic material for manufacturing piping system components such as valves, fittings, flanges, and other specialty products. PVC is highly resistant to a wide variety of fluids, making it an ideal choice for applications that require excellent chemical and corrosion resistance
  • The ASTRAL PVC materials are in compliance with ASTM D1784 and conform to the ASTM Cell Classification 12454-B, which is formally designated as Type 1 Grade 1. The recommended maximum service temperature for PVC products is 60°C (140°F)

Specifications

The following are the ASTM and ISO standards related to Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC) piping and fittings:
  •  ASTM D 1784 for Rigid Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC) Compounds
  • ASTM D 1785 for Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC) Plastic Pipes, SCH 40 & SCH 80
  • ASTM D 2466 for Socket type Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC) Plastic Pipe Fittings, SCH 40

Features

Durable and lightweight:

  • The ASTRAL Aquarius+ Industrial Piping System is not only strong and durable, but also lightweight, making it easy to transport from one location to another. Additionally, the system boasts high tensile and impact strength. It is worth noting that this piping system is lead-free.

Easy to Install – Simple & Leak Proof Joints

  • ASTRAL Aquarius+ pipes can be easily cut, shaped, welded, and joined together. The jointing process is simple and quick with the help of the special IPS solvent cement provided by the company, which ensures that the joints are 100% leak-proof.

Resistant to Fire:

  • The ASTRAL Aquarius+ Industrial Piping System has inherent fire resistance properties and once the heat source is removed, it stops burning.

UV Stabilized:
