Choosing metal tubing

When choosing metal tubing preferably galvanized steel, which, unlike neotsinkovannoy serves twice as much – 20-25 years. From the standpoint of corrosion resistance of copper tubing even better, but they have certain disadvantages: when combined with other metals, copper forms a so-called chemical vapor. As a result, during the operation begins to break down or [...]

Manufacturing technology of metal tubing

In plastic and metal tubing, of course, drew their relative cheapness, light weight, relatively simple installation, corrosion resistance on all Wednesdays and smooth inner surface, so that the head losses due to friction in them are 30% lower than in steel. PEX tubing does not rust and less prone to internal corrosion. But keep in [...]

How to increase the slope of PEX tubing

That is, the more complex network of tubinglines, the greater the potential for trouble.
Therefore, Plumbing systems must be periodically cleaned. For this tubingline provides so-called “audit” (sealing hatches) and “cleaning” (holes in the wall of the tube, closed tube).
They are put where the flow of water dramatically alter the character of motion, for example, to [...]

PEX pipe and polypropylene pipes

To date, replacing the usual metal and cast iron pipes are increasingly PEX pipe and polypropylene pipes.
PEX pipe – pipes made of chemically modified polyethylene. The technology of production and modification of polyethylene pipe to create a higher quality characteristics and possessing new properties.
pex pipe
This is achieved through a special technology so-called crosslinking, which provides [...]

Production of PEX pipe fittings

For the installation of PEX pipe fittings used or polyethylene, which is securely seal the area connections.
Production of PEX pipe has a rather wide range, among which there are PEX pipes, from the combined material. For example, the widely used PEX Pipe AL, made of metal plastic, having quality characteristics and indicators of resilience.
Scope PEX [...]

PEX pipe

PEX pipes are characterized by the fact that they do not lend themselves to corrosion and will not change their qualitative characteristics and properties when exposed to different kinds of building materials such as cement, plaster, concrete, lime, and others.
Another important advantage of plastic pipes and PEX pipes before the metal is their capacity to [...]
