PPRC Pipe (Polypropylene Random copolymer)
PPRC (Polypropylene Random Copolymer) pipes are a type of polypropylene pipe made from a random copolymer of propylene and ethylene. They offer:
1. Improved impact resistance
2. Enhanced flexibility
3. Better resistance to stress cracking
4. Higher temperature resistance (up to 90°C/194°F)
5. Good chemical resistance
6. Corrosion resistance
7. Lightweight and easy to install
Applications:
1. Hot and cold water distribution
2. Central heating systems
3. Radiator connections
4. Industrial processing and chemical handling
5. Food processing and handling
6. Aquaculture and swimming pools
7. HVAC and plumbing systems
