For more than a quarter of a century PVC Type I , Grade I, Schedule 40 piping systems have been successfully used for pressure and drainage systems in industrial, residential, commercial and agricultural installations. PVC Schedule 40 is ideal for applications where transmission of liquids or materials does not exceed 140° F. The life expectancy of plastic systems far exceeds that of metal systems and required maintenance is simpler and less costly. Systems are not adversely affected by environmental agents and buried systems are not adversely affected by normal soil contaminants. The inherent insulating qualities of PVC Schedule 40 provides substantial benefits in temperature control, and in commercial installations, sound transmission is greatly reduced. Joining is accomplished through solvent cementing, threading or flanging, insulation is generally not required, and extensive material handling and fabricating equipment is not necessary. Many fitting configurations available up to 24" in diameter upon request. PVC Schedule 40 Fittings are produced in accordance with the following standards - ASTM D1784, ASTM D2466 The Maximum Continuous working pressure of the fittings is equal to 150 PSI at 73.4°F (23°C). No provisions have been made for pressure surges, water hammer, or other conditions which should be considered.
