Black pvc pipe fittings are pipe connection components made of polyvinyl chloride as the main raw material and carbon black and other modifiers. This special color treatment not only gives the pipe fittings a unique appearance, but also brings many performance advantages:
Material properties
Ultraviolet protection: Carbon black components can absorb more than 99% of ultraviolet rays, extending the outdoor service life by 50%
Weather resistance: Maintain stable performance in the temperature range of -30℃ to 70℃
Mechanical strength: Impact strength reaches 50kJ/m², which is 30% higher than ordinary white PVC pipe fittings
Specifications
Common sizes: 1/2 inch to 8 inches (DN15-DN200)
Pressure level: PN0.6-PN1.6 (6-16 kg pressure)
Connection method: adhesive, thread, flange and other options
Implementation standards
International: ASTM D1785, ISO 4422
Domestic: GB/T 10002.1-2006
Industry: CJ/T 272-2008 (for water supply)
Core advantages of Black PVC pipe fittings
Excellent weather resistance
Experimental data show that the outdoor service life of Black PVC pipe fittings can reach 2 times that of white products under the same conditions. In the exposure test conducted in Arizona, the impact strength of black pipe fittings decreased by only 15% after 10 years of outdoor exposure, while the white product decreased by 45%.
Excellent mechanical properties
Ring stiffness: SN8-SN16 (preferred for underground laying)
Compressive strength: up to 50MPa
Flexural modulus: 2800-3500MPa
Chemical stability
Can withstand various chemical media with pH values of 2-12, especially suitable for:
Industrial wastewater treatment
Chemical park drainage
Seawater aquaculture system
Easy to install
The weight is only 1/5 of the same specification of metal pipe fittings, and the installation efficiency is increased by more than 3 times. The unique black appearance is easier to identify in complex construction site environments and reduces installation errors.
