CPVC Pipes & Fittings
The best CPVC pipes in India are made by skipper pipes; their fittings are perfect for both hot and cold water distribution systems since they are made with premium raw materials and cutting-edge technology. Chlorinated polyvinyl chloride, or CPVC as it is more well known, is the chemical name for the unique plastic used to make these pipes.
What is CPVC Pipe?
Safe and clean drinking water can only be supplied through pipes that can withstand extreme temperatures and are resistant to chemicals. That’s where chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC) pipes come into the picture. The pipes are made by using a light chlorination process that gives them the necessary qualities to become suitable to supply potable water.
What makes our CPVC pipes special?
We proudly source superior CPVC compounds from the world-renowned Sekisui Chemicals Co Ltd., Japan. They are distinguished for their high chemical resistance and consequent prevention of corrosion and scale buildup.
The pipes exhibit low thermal expansion, leading to reduced heat loss. This makes them fire-resistant. Skippers Pipes stands as the trusted choice for those seeking the best CPVC pipes in India. Our pipes are also lead-free, hardly allowing bacterial growth, making them ideal for long-term use. Our CPVC Pipes come in SDR 11, which are NSS marked upto 2" are manufactured as per ASTM D 2846 and SDR 13.5 which are manufactured from 2" to 6" comes in SCH 40 and SCH 80 are of ASTM S 441. These pipes are cost-effective and conform to IS: 15778.
CPVC pipe fittings
Skipper solvent cement is best for joining our CPVC pipes. It has a fairly easy and quick fitting process and ensures a leak-proof joint. Fitting does not require electricity or a heat source. A fine-toothed hacksaw can be used to cut the pipes to required lengths. Our UPVC fittings conform to ASTMD 2467 and come in schedule 40 and schedule 80.
