Types of plastic PVCu MDPE HDPE Polypropylene Polybutylene ABS
Polypropylene Waste pipes Overflow CWSC Degrades in direct sunlight Feels slightly greasy to touch Not solvent welded
Polybutylene Cold water Hot water Central heating Push fit Compression Not solvent welded
ABS Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene Commercial water Waste Overflow Solvent welded Degrades in sunlight
PVCu Unplasticised polyvinyl chloride Cold water Soil pipes Waste and overflow pipes Guttering and downpipe Not suitable for hot water Solvent weld Push fit
MDPE Medium density polyethylene Underground mains (blue) CWSC Degrades in sunlight Fusion welded Push fit Compression
HDPE High density polyethylene Underground mains (black) Degrades in sunlight Fusion welded Push fit Compression
Bending Plastic pipe is usually fabricated using fittings on waste pipes. Polybutylene (hot, cold and central heating) is flexible and can be laid around corners, if supported.
X dimensions On plastic, the X dimensions are manually measured and worked out
Soil and waste plastic PVCu plastic is used for push fit and solvent welded soil, waste pipes, overflow pipes, guttering and below ground drainage. 110mm, 50mm, 40mm, 32mm and 21.5mm
soil and waste plastic Polyethylene (PE) is used a lot in the plumbing trade Medium density polyethylene (MDPE), is hardwearing and is used for water mains (blue) and gas mains (yellow). It degrades when exposed to UV light. 20mm-63mm in coils. The most common is 25mm cold water service pipe High density polyethylene (HDPE), was used some years ago and is still found in properties but it was superseded by MDPE
