Product type
GI pipes, or Galvanized Iron pipes, are steel pipes coated with a layer of zinc to prevent rust and corrosion. This coating enhances the durability of the pipes, making them suitable for various applications in plumbing and construction. GI pipes are known for their strength and longevity, often used in water supply systems, drainage, and structural applications.
| Material | Galvanized iron |
| Diameter range | 15 mm to 150 mm |
| Length | Typically available in 6 meters or custom lengths |
| Wall thickness | 1.2 mm to 5 mm |
| Coating thickness | Minimum 45 microns |
When selecting GI pipes, consider the diameter and length required for your project. It's important to specify the desired wall thickness based on the pressure and type of fluid being transported. Additionally, inquire about the coating thickness to ensure adequate corrosion resistance. Certifications and compliance with local standards may also be relevant, depending on the application.
