PPR Pipes and Fittings: All Types and Applications

PPR pipes and fittings have become the first choice in construction,water supply system,drainage system. As a professional PPR pipes and fittings manufacturer from China, We will comprehensively analyze the types of PPR pipes and fittings, accessories classification and purchase points, to help you create a safe and reliable pipe system.

PPR Pipes and Fittings

PPR Pipe Technical Characteristics

1. Material Advantages

PPR (random copolymer polypropylene) uses advanced type III polypropylene as raw materials,includes:

Temperature range: -20℃ to 95℃ (instantaneous up to 110℃)

Working pressure: PN10-PN25 (1.0-2.5MPa)

Linear expansion coefficient: 0.15mm/m·k

Thermal conductivity: 0.24W/mk

2. Environmental Certification

According to NSF, WRAS, KTW and other international drinking water certification, lead content < 0.1μg/L, in line with GB/T17219 health standards.

The Main Type of PPR pipeline

Classification By Pressure Level

TypesWorking Pressure (Mpa)ApplicationsWall Thickness Range
PN101.0 MPaCold water system, low pressure irrigation2.0-3.5 mm
PN161.6 MPaMultistory building water supply system2.3-4.2 mm
PN202.0 MPaHigh temperature heating, industrial piping2.8-5.4 mm
PN252.5 MPaHigh pressure steam systems, special industries3.5-6.5 mm

Sort By Function

Cold water pipe (marked by blue line): Suitable for water supply system ≤40℃

Advantage of PPR Pipeline System

1. Comparison of installation efficiency

Hot melt connection: 15-30 seconds/connector

Traditional threaded connection time: 3-5 minutes/connector

The comprehensive construction efficiency is increased by 60%

2. Service life Comparison

MaterialLife expectancyMaintenance cycle
PPR50 years +Maintenance-free
Galvanized pipe15 yearsAnnual overhaul
Copper pipe25 years5 year detection

3. Cost of PPR Pipe System Analysis

The initial cost is 40% lower than copper tubing

Maintenance costs are reduced by 80%

Combined use cost savings of 65%

PPR Pipe Manufacturer

Professional Purchasing Guide

1. How to Choose High Quality PPR Pipes And Fittings

Observe the incision: The incision of high quality pipe is smooth and without burrs

Combustion test: No black smoke when burning, transparent melt droplets

Light transmittance: Light opaque design to prevent algae growth

2. Suggestions for PPR Pipe System Build

S5 series (wall thickness 2.0mm) is recommended for cold water system.

S3.2 series (wall thickness 2.8mm) recommended for floor heating system

S2.5 series (wall thickness 3.5mm) should be selected for the main riser of high-rise buildings.

3. Key Point of PPR Pipes And Fittings Installation

Hot melt temperature: 260±5℃

Heating time formula: PPR pipe diameter (mm)/10 x 1.2 seconds

Cooling time: 15 minutes in summer, 30 minutes in winter
