The basic concept and unit of PVC pipe size,PVC pipe is a commonly used pipe material,widely used in construction,municipal,agricultural,industrial and other fields.When working with PVC pipe,it is very important to understand the basic concepts and units of PVC pipe size.Jiepeng Plastics will analyze from the following aspects and introduce the basic concept and unit of PVC pipe size.

　　1.The basic concept of PVC pipe size

　　The size of PVC pipe is usually described by three parameters:outer diameter,wall thickness and length.Among them,the outer diameter refers to the diameter of the outside of the pipe,the wall thickness refers to the thickness of the pipe wall,and the length refers to the length of the pipe.These three parameters are usually in millimeters(mm)as the unit.

　　2.Unit conversion of PVC pipe size

　　In actual use,it is sometimes necessary to convert the size of PVC pipes from one unit to another.The following are common PVC pipe size unit conversions:

　　-1 inch(in)=25.4 millimeters(mm)

　　-1 millimeter(mm)=0.03937 inches(in)

　　-1 meter(m)=1000 millimeters(mm)

　　-1 foot(ft)=304.8 millimeters(mm)

　　3.Standard specification of PVC pipe size

　　There are usually standard specifications for the size of PVC pipes to ensure the interchangeability and compatibility of piping systems.In China,the standard specifications of PVC pipes are usually formulated according to the national standard GB/T10002.1-2006.According to this standard,the outer diameter of PVC pipes usually ranges from 16mm to 630mm,and the wall thickness usually ranges from 1.0mm to 30mm.

　　4.Application range of PVC pipe size

　　The size of PVC pipes is usually selected according to different application scenarios.For example,small-diameter PVC pipes are usually used in household tap water,drainage,ventilation and other fields,while large-diameter PVC pipes are usually used in municipal,industrial,agricultural and other fields.

　　To sum up,understanding the basic concepts and units of PVC pipe size is of great significance for the correct selection and use of PVC pipes.In actual use,the appropriate PVC pipe size should be selected according to specific application scenarios and requirements.
