Frequently Asked Questions
What are the primary applications for ABS pipes?
ABS pipes are primarily used for industrial drainage, vent systems, pressurized liquid lines for irrigation or saltwater, and both interior and exterior sanitary waste systems.
What is the maximum operating temperature for these pipes?
These ABS pipes can perform efficiently at operational temperatures up to 93°C (200°F).
How does ABS compare to PVC piping?
ABS is generally more rigid and durable than PVC. It also offers better resistance to mechanical damage at lower temperatures and is approved for potable water systems.
Can ABS pipes be installed underground?
Yes, ABS pipes are highly advisable for both underground and above-ground applications due to their ability to withstand earth loads.
Are these pipes resistant to corrosion?
Absolutely. ABS pipes do not rust, rot, or corrode, and their smooth interior finish prevents waste collection and ensures superior fluid flow.
What specifications are available?
We provide ABS pipes in both Schedule 40 and Schedule 80 dimensions to meet different pressure and durability requirements.
