uPVC 50mm Pressure Pipe – 1m length

The uPVC 50mm Pressure Pipe is pressure rated, providing a means of discharging
ground water, effluent water and sewage from our pumping systems. It is a
professional choice due to its long-term strength characteristics, impact
resistance and cost effectiveness.

The pipe we supply has been approved by the Water Regulations Advisory Scheme
(WRAS) and conforms to European Standard EN ISO 1452-2 – Plastics piping systems
for water supply and for buried and aboveground drainage and sewerage under
pressure – Unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-U) – Part 2: Pipes
(ISO 1452-2:2009).

Connection Methods

Solvent Weld Fittings

The pipe and socket fittings are joined using PVC solvent weld glue, creating a
homogeneous seal by fully bonding the two components to form a watertight union.

Threaded Fittings

Male and female threaded fittings are screwed together and sealed using PTFE
(polytetrafluoroethylene) tape to stop water tracking through the joint.

Metric and Imperial Pipe Measurements

Metric and imperial pipe diameters are measured differently. Using the correct
measurement is crucial when specifying or ordering pipework.

Metric Pipe

Metric pipe is measured by its outside diameter.

Imperial Pipe

Imperial pipe is measured by its inside diameter, as illustrated in the images
below.
