Plastic Metric Pipe | McMaster-Carr

Connect this pipe to standard-wall plastic pipe fittings for a variety of residential and commercial low-pressure plumbing and water supply applications. It’s made of PVC, which has good corrosion resistance. Connect to unthreaded female socket-connect fittings using a PVC primer and cement (also known as solvent weld).

Pipe for drinking water meets NSF/ANSI Standard 61.

Pipe that meets ASTM D1784 and ASTM D1785 adheres to specifications and testing requirements for material quality.

Bend radius is the point to which you can bend pipe or tubing without damaging it. The smaller the measurement, the better the bend.

Warning: Never use plastic pipe fittings and pipe with compressed air or gas.

CPVC Pipe for Hot Water

Made of CPVC, this pipe can withstand high temperatures up to 170° or 200° F. It meets NSF/ANSI Standard 61 for drinking water. Also known as Schedule 80 pipe, it has thick, strong walls for use in heavy duty industrial plumbing and water supply applications, such as water processing and waste water treatment. Pipe has good corrosion resistance. It is comparable to Corzan.

Connect unthreaded pipe to unthreaded female socket-connect fittings using a CPVC primer and cement (also known as solvent weld).

Warning: Never use plastic pipe fittings and pipe with compressed air or gas.

Sealants cannot be sold to Colorado, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Massachusetts, Maryland, Maine, Michigan, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Northern Virginia, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, or Utah due to local regulatory limits on VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds).
