Product Overview
The GF Piping Systems PVC-U PN16 Straight Pipe (Model: d63 x 4.7mm x 5M) is a premium industrial solution engineered for reliable fluid transportation in challenging environments. Constructed from unplasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC-U), this pipe offers exceptional chemical resistance and durability, complying with DIN 8061/8062 and EN 1452 standards. With an outer diameter of 63mm, wall thickness of 4.7mm, and 5-meter length, it is rated for PN16 (16 bar) pressure at 20°C, ensuring leak-free performance in medium-to-high pressure systems. The plain-end design supports solvent cementing for quick, secure installations, making it ideal for industrial and municipal infrastructure projects.
Technical Features & Performance
This PVC-U pipe delivers robust thermal stability, operating efficiently between 0°C and 60°C, while its lightweight construction (≈2.5kg/m) reduces handling costs compared to metal alternatives. The material’s high tensile strength (≥45 MPa) and impact resistance make it suitable for corrosive media, including acids, alkalis, and wastewater. GF’s advanced extrusion technology ensures uniform wall thickness and dimensional accuracy, minimizing pressure loss and maximizing flow efficiency. Certified to ISO 9001 and ISO 14001, the pipe aligns with global quality and sustainability benchmarks. Optional bio-based PVC-U variants further reduce CO₂ emissions by up to 90% during production without compromising performance.
Applications & Advantages
Designed for versatility, the pipe excels in diverse sectors such as petrochemical processing, water treatment, and microelectronics. Its non-toxic formulation meets drinking water standards, while flame-retardant properties enhance safety in industrial settings. The 10-year warranty and GF’s worldwide technical support network ensure long-term reliability. With over six decades of expertise in PVC-U systems, GF Piping Systems provides a trusted, cost-effective solution for modern automation and infrastructure needs, balancing performance, compliance, and environmental responsibility.
