Pipe PVC-C PN16

  Datasheet (PDF)

The Georg Fischer industrial PVC-C pipe (SDR 13.6 / S 6.3) is an engineered post-chlorinated polyvinyl chloride piping solution developed for demanding industrial applications requiring elevated thermal performance, high mechanical rigidity, and broad chemical inertness exceeding conventional PVC-U systems. Manufactured to DIN 8079 and DIN 8080 dimensional standards, this metric pipe features a nominal pressure rating of PN16 at 20 degrees C and is supplied in standard 5000 mm rigid lengths with plain ends ready for cold solvent cementing. Finished in agate grey (RAL 7038), the pipe exhibits high impact resistance, dimensional stability, and long-term durability in aggressive indoor and outdoor operating environments.

Designed for high-temperature and chemically aggressive fluid conveying, PVC-C maintains continuous operational integrity up to 80 degrees C under pressure. The chlorinated polymer formulation delivers superior resistance against strong mineral acids, caustic alkalis, oxidizing agents, and saline solutions, including sulfuric acid up to 96% when combined with Dytex solvent. This makes it a preferred choice across the chemical process industry, industrial effluent treatment, metal pickling, electroplating, automotive surface preparation, semiconductor manufacturing, and demineralized water distribution networks where metallic alternatives succumb to pitting and electrochemical corrosion.

As an authorised Georg Fischer distributor, BigWeld provides complete industrial piping systems engineered for reliable long-term performance. Jointing is completed via solvent welding into metric PVC-C fittings, producing permanent, leak-proof homogenous connections capable of sustaining full line pressure. The smooth internal bore ensures minimal friction loss, preventing sedimentation and scaling throughout decades of service. The pipe seamlessly integrates with Georg Fischer metric fittings, actuation valves, and flange adaptors manufactured to ISO 727, ISO 15493, and EN 1092 standards.
