Temperature Effects
PVC-U material is suitable for service temperatures between 0°C and 50°C, it is self-extinguishing and does not support combustion when the source of ignition is removed.
PVC-U material should not be used for continuous service temperatures above 50°C, as deformation of the pipe may result.
Impact Strength
PVC-U pipes and fittings have good impact resistance. However, at very low temperatures (e.g. Below 5°C) the impact resistance of PVC-U materials is reduced. Therefore, when installing PVC-U at low temperatures extra care must be taken when handling and inserting pipes and fittings.
PVC-U pipes are however installed in some of the coldest regions of Europe and North America in large quantities without difficulty.
Chemical Resistance
PVC-U materials must not be used with aromatic or chlorinated hydrocarbons, ketones, esters and ethers.
Colour and Markings
The Raccord fittings are manufactured in a dark grey colour.
Certifications & Approvals
Standards and approvals
The Raccord Plast fittings are manufactured with dimensions in accordance with Australian Standards AS/NZS1477 “PVC pipes and fittings for pressure applications”.
