CPVC PIPES & FITTINGS.
RAKSHA CPVC Pipes & fittings are used for potable water transportation, these pipes are manufactured using copper tube sizes(CTS) making a easy to replace Copper / Iron pipes. These pipes are manufactured in two different standard dimensional ratio of SDR -11 and SDR-13.5. These pipes meet ASTM-D 2846 and ASTM-F 442 respectively . Raksha cPVC fittings are manufactured using raw material precured from france and using world calss machinary. Raksha pipes and fittings can withstand upto 93o C at working pressure.
Raksha CPVC Pipes also comes in Iron pipe size [IPS] from 65mm to 100mm which meet the requirement of SCH 40 and SCH 80 of ASTM-F 441.
Sizes : 15mm to 100mm.

SOLVENT WELD FOR THREADED FITTINGS
As per ASTM-D 2846 in SDR-11 series.
- Fittings for ASTM plain ended pipes are available in SDR-11 series.
- They are joined by use of heavy duty solvent cement, is a permanent homogenous joint.
- Such type of a joint is also referred as cold welding.
| Performance Characteristics | RAKSHA CPVC | COPPER | G.I. |
|---|---|---|---|
| Scaling & Pitting | No scaling, smooth water flow | Scaling reduces water flow | Very high scaling reduces water flow |
| Corrosion Resistance | High | Medium | Low |
| Leakage | No Leakages | Required skilled manpower to prevent leakages | Highly susceptible for leakages |
| Installation | Easy & Cost Effective | Requires skilled manpower | Slow & requires skilled manpower |
| Thermal Conductivity | Low thermal conductivity reduces heat losses | High thermal conductivity increased heat losses | Very high thermal conductivity increases heat losses |
| Range of Fittings | Wide range of fittings | Limited range, needs cutting and welding frequently | Limited range of fitting |
| Special Tools | Cutter or Hex-Saw blade & Solvent cement required for plumbing | Required metal cutting torch, solder brushes etc. | Required heavy tools for pipe cutting & threading |
