Unlike metal, plastics never rust, scale, or pit — they virtually last forever. Thermoplastics are abrasion resistant, chemical and corrosion resistant, nonconductive, lightweight, and operate at lower friction-loss levels than metals. Moreover, plastics are nontoxic and environmentally safe. Adding these benefits with ease of installation at substantially lower costs, thermoplastic piping system components are the proven choice for years of maintenance free system operations.

  • Features
  • Chlorinated PVC is used for higher temperature applications than PVC, especially for handling hot corrosive liquids. With similar chemical and corrosion resistance to PVC, increased chlorine content gives CPVC superior thermal resistance.
  • CPVC is not recommended for use with chlorinated or aromatic hydrocarbons, esters, or polar solvents such as ketones.
  • Spears® CPVC materials conform to ASTM Cell Classification 23447 (formerly designated as Type IV, Grade 1). The maximum recommended service temperature of CPVC products is 200° F (93° C).
  • Used in O-ring seals, EPDM is recommended for water, chlorinated water, dilute acids and alkaloids, alcohols, and has excellent resistance to ozone.
  • EPDM is not recommended for petroleum oils, di-ester lubricants, strong acids, or strong alkaloids.
