With the continuous development of modern technology, various new pipes are gradually introduced into our lives. PPR glass fiber tube and steady state tube are two of the more common tubes. This article will introduce in detail from the perspectives of their differences, selection methods, advantages and disadvantages, and material characteristics, in order to better understand these two pipes.IFAN factory 30+ years manufacture experience support color/size customization support free sample.Welcome to consult for catalog and free samples.This is our Facebook Website: www.facebook.com.
The difference between PPR glass fiber tube and steady state tube
PPR glass fiber pipe is a polymer composite pipe made of random polymerization of polypropylene. The material is relatively light and the surface is relatively smooth, so it is usually used as a cold water pipe, hot water pipe and heating pipe. The steady-state pipe is composed of polymer and engineering plastics, and is a pipe material with excellent mechanical properties, heat resistance and corrosion resistance. Compared with PPR glass fiber pipe, it is more suitable for occasions requiring higher pipe stability in construction and industrial fields.
Daily selection method
For ordinary civilian cold water pipes and hot water pipes, we can choose PPR glass fiber pipes, because it is not only economical in material price, but also has good compression resistance. At the same time, for those occasions that require high-precision fluid transfer, we should choose a steady-state tube. For example, some petrochemical, chemical, pharmaceutical and food companies have high requirements on the corrosion resistance and high-pressure stability of pipelines. At this time, it is best to choose stable pipelines.
The advantages and disadvantages of PPR glass fiber tube and steady state tube
Advantages of PPR glass fiber tube:
- Safe and durable: the material is a new type of plastic product, which gets rid of the shortcomings of the traditional short-board telephone line products, acid and alkali resistance and wear resistance, and has a long service life;
- Heat transfer performance: For the case of transferring hot water, the heat transfer performance of the PPR glass fiber tube is good, which can ensure the temperature of the hot water;
- Energy saving and environmental protection: this kind of material does not contain dangerous elements, can be recycled, and can fully reflect the environmental protection awareness of modern society.
Disadvantages of PPR fiberglass tube:
- Poor cold resistance: In a low temperature environment, the toughness of the material decreases and cannot withstand severe cold weather;
- Weak pressure resistance: due to the low hardness of this material, it may be easily broken when facing some harsh physical environments;
- Easy to deform: especially after a long time of use, the material will be easily deformed due to external pressure.
Advantages of steady state tubes:
- High stability: The stable pipeline material is compounded with polymer and engineering plastics, which has extremely high stability and can be used under high pressure and high temperature conditions;
- Corrosion resistance: This kind of pipeline material has good corrosion resistance, long service life, and does not require excessive maintenance;
- High pressure resistance: Because the hardness of some materials is harder than that of PPR glass fiber tube, it has a large depth of compression resistance and can withstand greater pressure.
Disadvantages of steady state tubes:
- The price is relatively expensive: Compared with the price of PPR glass fiber pipe, the price of steady-state pipe is higher, so it cannot be commonly used by ordinary people;
- Weak wear resistance: Although this material has high hardness, the corresponding wear resistance is relatively weak and cannot withstand excessive friction;
- Heavy weight: Since this material is a high-strength material, it is heavy and not suitable for some occasions that are easily stressed.
- Material characteristics of PPR glass fiber tube and steady state tube
PPR glass fiber tube material features:
- Lightweight and easy to install;
- Low thermal resistance, can transfer strong temperature and heat;
- Acid and alkali resistance, not easy to be corroded by chemical substances, long service life.
Stable tube material features:
- Good rigidity and freedom;
- High temperature resistance, can be used in high temperature and high pressure environment;
- Significantly low flow resistance, saving energy and electricity, improving the efficiency of the entire system.
To sum up, both PPR glass fiber tube and steady state tube have their own advantages and disadvantages. When choosing, we need to distinguish according to the needs, and choose the tube that suits us, so as to achieve better use effect.
