Product type
Ductile iron pipes are a type of pipe made from ductile iron, which is known for its high strength and durability. These pipes are produced using a process that enhances the iron's ability to withstand pressure and impact, making them suitable for a variety of applications. They are typically used in water and wastewater systems, as well as in industrial applications where robust piping is required.
| Material | Ductile iron |
| Standard sizes | 4 inches to 64 inches in diameter |
| Pressure ratings | Class 50 to Class 350 |
| Coating options | Cement mortar lining, epoxy coating |
| Joint types | Mechanical joints, push-on joints |
| Length | Typically 18 to 20 feet |
When selecting ductile iron pipes, buyers should consider the required pressure ratings and the specific application to ensure compatibility. It's important to specify the desired length, diameter, and any necessary coatings or linings. Additionally, buyers should inquire about the relevant certifications and standards that the pipes meet, as well as the quantity needed for their project.
