PVC-U Imperial Pressure Pipe Class C

Our PVC-U Pressure Pipe meets the requirements of WRAS, made from plasticised polyvinyl chloride (PVC).

PVC-U is one of the most widely used materials for pipe installations. It is highly suitable for both interior and exterior applications. Due to a Smooth bore it has both good flow characteristics and good resistance to abrasion. PVC-U is light to handle and can be easily jointed.

Our range of Imperial PVC-U Class C pressure pipe is supplied plain ended and available in sizes from 2”n.b to 4”n.b, it is rated at 9 Bar pressure at 20°C supplied in 6 metre lengths (2 1/2" is supplied in a 5 metre length).
