The difference between PVC pipe and PPR pipe

In terms of raw materials, PPR pipe is produced by copolymer polypropylene material, PVC pipe is produced by PVC material; Wall thickness, wall thickness, PPR thin wall PVC pipe; The price is higher, the price of general PPR pipe; Use, PPR pipe for water supply pipe, PVC pipe for drainage pipe.

The specific differences are as follows:

1, different raw materials PPR pipe is produced by copolymer polypropylene material, and PVC pipe is produced by polyvinyl chloride material, the production of different materials, its performance is not the same. Color of PPR pipes and PVC products. The PPR pipe made of polypropylene material has bright appearance and good toughness. PVC pipe is milky white, the surface is more shiny, but no cross section, the material is weak.

2, different wall thickness PPR pipe is divided into four or six tubes, the wall thickness of 2.3 mm and 3.5 mm, respectively. PVC pipe diameter 6 mm wall thickness 2.0 mm, diameter 8 ~ 10 mm wall thickness 2.5 mm. PPR pipe diameter is similar to PVC pipe, but the wall thickness is not the same, PPR pipe wall is thick, PVC pipe wall is thin.

3, the price is different due to the material and wall thickness reasons, the production cost and price of PPR pipe and PVC pipe are also different. Generally speaking, the price of PPR tube is higher. 4, different use due to material reasons, PVC pipe than PPR pipe health and safety, home decoration generally choose PPR pipe as a water supply pipe, can be used for cold, hot water pipe, PVC pipe is often used for drainage, only as a cold water pipe
