RAW MATERIALS & MACHINERY

Raw Materials for uPVC Pipe

  • The direct raw material required for the envisaged pipe production is compounded PVC resin. PVC uncompounded resin, unlike some other thermoplastics, is not suitable for direct processing. To confer the required processing and end instability, it is necessary to mix additives to the PVC resin, like stabilizer, filler, color masterbatch, PE wax, etc.
  • PVC resin is compounded with other ingredients in a high-speed mixer. The compounded resin is fed to the double screw extruder where the inserts and die body for the required pipe diameter are fitted.
  • MPI imports raw materials from the USA, Turkey, Thailand, Taiwan, India, China, and all around the world.

OUR PRODUCTS and SERVICES

uPVC Pipes

These are widely used as sewage pipes and exterior drainage pipes. They are incredibly strong, stiff, and cost-effective. They are resistant to chemical erosion and reactions in different temperatures and operating conditions. They are typically used for plumbing and draining applications including waste pipes, drainpipes, and downspouts.

uPVC pipes, as well as fittings, have a number of advantages over their counterparts; some of which are:

  • They have great strength and flexibility as compared to other PVC materials.
  • They are relatively non-toxic.
  • Unlike other materials, uPVC pipes are 100% leakproof.

Thus, there is no room for worry about water leakage when opting for uPVC pipe installation.

uPVC pipes do not break even under the harshest weather conditions, including exposure to salts and chemicals that may cause corrosion in pipes made from commonly used materials such as copper and steel.

PROPERTIES

  • General: The physical, chemical, and mechanical properties of uPVC pipes and fittings demonstrate their superiority in utility and applications over the conventional system.
  • Density: The density of uPVC is approximately 1.43g/cm3, which is almost 1/6th the weight of cast iron and steel, thus making it much cheaper to transport and easier to handle during installation.
  • Opacity: The wall of the uPVC pipe does not transmit more than 0.2% of visible light.
  • Mechanical Strength: uPVC pipes and fittings are suitable even in varying conditions because of their mechanical strength. This can be gauged from the fact that the tensile, flexural, and compressive strength of uPVC is around 450 kg/cm3.
  • Hygienics: uPVC pipes and fittings offer the most hygienic means of fluid transportation. They are highly capable of fighting attacks by fungi and are not subject to contamination. The inside surface is extremely smooth, does not support any growth, encrustation or fuming, and no odor or taste is transmitted to the fluid being conveyed. This property is of prime importance for the transportation of potable water to towns and villages.
  • Chemical Resistance: uPVC is unaffected by most concentrations of acids, alkalis, organic chemicals, oils and fats. This resistance to corrosion by most chemicals makes uPVC pipes and fittings indispensable for contemporary industrial applications and for sewerage purposes.
  • Flexibility: Being a thermoplastic material, uPVC is more capable to withstand deformation due to earth movements. uPVC pipes and fittings, in this respect, are considerably more popular than metallic and asbestos cement pipes, which can collapse under stress.
  • Fire Resistance: uPVC pipes and fittings do not support combustion and are self-extinguishing, a fact that has been proven over a considerable amount of time.
  • Pressure Rating: The nominal pressure of uPVC pipe is the working pressure of the pi at 20oC. If the operating temperature is between 25-45oC, a supplementary derating factor should be applied. uPVC Pipes are not recommended for operating above a temperature of more than 60oC or 140oF.

Maruti Plastic Industry PLC's uPVC pipes impart smooth and better flow in comparison with traditional pipes. Not only this, they offer excellent resistance against corrosion, chemicals, and electrolytes. Their 100% hygienic and odorless nature makes them ideal for conveying water from one place to another. Some of the other uses of these pipes include irrigation, industrial/chemical effluent disposal system, distribution of oils and gases, transportation of acid and slurries, telecommunication cable duct, and many others.

MPI uPVC pipes are available in different colors like black, gray, yellow, orange, and blue.

Slotted PVC Well Casings

Maruti Plastic Industry PLC produces a full range of slotted uPVC pipes that can be used for the removal of surface and ground waters. Pipe sizes can range from 100mm up to 400mm and can be supplied with a full range of fittings.

  • Purpose and use: Slotted pipe systems are designed for gravity drainage ground and surface waters in many applications. They can be used especially for controlling the moisture content of road/motorway formations and sub-base. They are used to collect large quantities of roadway surface water and act as the main drain as well. The use of slotted pipe has increased more and more as engineers began recognizing the benefits of the system
  • Size range: Pipes can be supplied in a range of size and wall thickness to suit any application
  • Jointing: Pipes can be provided with either plain end, solvent weld, or rubber seal type joint.

APPLICATION and HANDLING

STORAGE

  • Store away from excessive heat.
  • Avoid contamination by oils, petrol, or greases.
  • uPVC sewer and drainage pipes stored for an extended period (more than 3 months), should be completely covered with an opaque UV resistant material.
  • The storage area must be flat and leveled, with no sharp objects or projections, and able to support the complete plan area and weight of the material being stored.
  • Pipes should be stored in a bundled beehive configuration not exceeding 1m in height.
  • Lengths should be evenly supported at spans not exceeding 1m.
  • Socketed pipes should be stacked with sockets at alternate ends protruding; ensuring pipes are evenly supported.
  • For temporary storage on site, the ground should be leveled and free from stones or sharp objects likely to damage the pipe.
  • Carefully store pipes in tapered stacks or cross stacks not more than 1m in height. It is important that each pipe have an even bearing throughout its entire barrel length.
  • Pipes of different sizes should be stacked separately. Where this is not possible, larger diameter pipes should be placed at the bottom.

HANDLING & TRANSPORT

  • While uPVC pipes and profiles are light and easy to handle, they should not be maltreated. The protection of the prepared pipe ends is particularly important.
  • Pipes or profiles should never be dropped on hard surfaces.
  • The dragging of pipe or profiles along the ground is not permitted.
  • Pipes should be transported by a suitable vehicle, having a flat and leveled load bed with no sharp objects or projections and able to support the complete plan area and weight of the pipe being transported.
  • During transport, the pipe should be supported along the length on timber battens not less than 75mm wide, at spans not exceeding 1mtrs.
  • During transport, all loads should be securely anchored with suitable ratchet webbing load straps so as to prevent movement and chaffing of the pipe.
  • The loading and unloading of pipes should be undertrained and experienced supervision.
  • Wideband slings of a non-metallic material should be used when lifting pipe bundles by crane.
  • Do not use hooks, chains, or hawsers.
  • Lifting points along pipe lengths or pipe bundles are to be evenly spaced.
