Plastic pipes are flexible tubes made from synthetic materials, commonly used for transporting water, gas, and other fluids. They are lightweight, resistant to corrosion, and can be easily cut and joined, making installation simpler compared to traditional metal pipes. Common types of plastic pipes include PVC (polyvinyl chloride), CPVC (chlorinated polyvinyl chloride), and PE (polyethylene). These pipes are widely used in residential, commercial, and industrial applications due to their durability and cost-effectiveness. They can withstand various temperatures and pressures, making them suitable for both hot and cold water systems. Additionally, plastic pipes are often preferred for their lower environmental impact during production and installation.
