More about Historical - Polypropylene Water Pipe

This CP describes pipes made from polypropylene random copolymer (PP-R) that are intended for the distribution of hot and cold water within buildings, and able to sustain a pressure of 160 psi at 73 degrees F, as per ASTM F2389. While the market for PP-R pipes features a variety of specialty products, we have focused on a “standard” product; that is, no added antimicrobial treatment (more common in Asia than US), and no composite fiberglass reinforcement. Were any of these options specified for use in construction, the health profile for this CP would likely change considerably.
