Casing Pipe
uPVC Casing Pipes (Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride) are specially designed for use as borewell and water well casings, providing a durable, non-corrosive, and long-lasting barrier for water extraction applications. They are highly valued as a superior alternative to traditional steel casing pipes due to their numerous advantages.
Key Features and Benefits:
- Corrosion and Chemical Resistance: uPVC material is non-reactive to the chemical effects of aggressive water (acidic or alkaline) and soil, ensuring a long service life and maintaining water quality.
- High Strength: The pipes are rigid and have high tensile strength, designed to withstand external hydrostatic pressure, especially in deep boreholes.
- Non-Toxic and Safe: They are lead-free and do not contaminate the water, making them ideal for potable water applications.
- Lightweight and Easy Installation: Being significantly lighter than steel pipes, uPVC casings are easy to transport, handle, and install, reducing labor and overall project costs.
- Smooth Inner Wall: The smooth surface minimizes frictional losses, ensuring an unhindered flow of water.
- Threaded Joints: Most casing pipes come with easy and reliable threaded joints for quick, leak-proof assembly without the need for welding or solvent cement.
Specifications and Types
uPVC casing pipes are primarily classified based on their intended borewell depth and structural strength, typically adhering to standards like IS 12818: 1992.
