PN20 PPR Pipe (SDR 6)

THERMALINO PPR pipe PN20 (SDR 6) is a PP-R pressure pipe to EN ISO 15874-2 for hot and cold domestic water supply, supplied in 4 m lengths from Ø20 to Ø110 mm and joined by socket fusion. As a ppr hot water pipe it serves taps and showers at an operating temperature of 70 °C, maximum 95 °C.

The PN20 PPR Pipe (SDR 6) from the THERMALINO Eternal line is a thick-walled pressure pipe in PP-R (polypropylene random copolymer), made to EN ISO 15874-2. Its SDR 6 wall gives it the PN20 nominal pressure class, so it can carry hot water as well as cold. It is made from prime-grade PP-R raw material, and the material does not release harmful substances such as BPA into the water, which keeps drinking water hygienic. The pipe is intended for domestic hot and cold water: supply lines, risers and branches to taps, showers and other draw-off points in houses, apartment buildings and commercial buildings. The operating temperature is 70 °C, with a maximum of 95 °C. Permissible pressure falls as temperature rises, so the pressure at each temperature and service life is given in the technical data sheet. For central heating and radiator circuits, a glass-fibre reinforced PPR pipe is the recommended choice because of its lower thermal expansion. The pipe is supplied in 4 m straight lengths in nine sizes, from Ø20x3.4 to Ø110x18.3 mm, and in white, grey double strip and green double strip. Sizes are given as outside diameter and wall thickness, in millimetres. Installation is by socket fusion with PP-R fittings: the pipe end and fitting socket are heated on a welding tool and pushed together to form one homogeneous, leak-tight joint without threads, sealants or glue. Socket fusion makes installation quick and clean, and the finished system needs no maintenance during its service life.
