Made of CPVC, this pipe withstands salt solutions, acids, and other harsh substances. 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 wastewater treatment. It’s comparable to Corzan.

To prevent leaks in threaded connections, apply a sealant to the male threads. Threaded connections can be taken apart as needed for maintenance and repair. For metal threads, use PTFE tape. For plastic threads, apply a non-hardening, plastic-compatible sealant. Tape or sealants with PTFE are not recommended for plastic-to-plastic connections. When making a threaded connection be careful not to overtighten the threads. To prevent cracks and leaks, finger tighten the fitting, then wrench-tighten one to two turns.

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