PVC steel wire pipe is a kind of pipe commonly used in industry, which has the advantages of corrosion resistance, abrasion resistance, high temperature resistance, etc. It is widely used in the transportation of liquid, gas, dust and other media.
When buying PVC steel wire pipe, you need to pay attention to the following points:

5 factors for choosing PVC steel wire hose

  1. Select the material according to the application environment
    PVC steel wire pipe material mainly has PVC, PVC-U, PVC-C, etc. PVC material has poor corrosion resistance, applicable to the general environment; PVC-U material has better corrosion resistance, applicable to acid and alkali and other chemical media; PVC-C material has the best corrosion resistance, applicable to strong acid and alkali and other harsh environments.
  2. Select the pipe diameter according to the working pressure
    The working pressure of PVC steel wire pipe is related to the pipe diameter. The larger the pipe diameter, the higher the working pressure. Generally speaking, for applications with working pressure less than 0.5MPa, you can choose DN15-DN32 pipe diameter; for applications with working pressure more than 0.5MPa, you can choose DN32-DN200 pipe diameter.
  3. Select wall thickness according to the working temperature
    The working temperature of PVC steel wire pipe is related to the wall thickness. The thicker the wall thickness, the higher the working temperature. Generally speaking, applications with working temperature less than 70℃ can choose pipes with wall thickness of 0.3-0.5mm; applications with working temperature greater than 70℃ can choose pipes with wall thickness of 0.5-1.0mm.
  4. Choose according to the service life
    The service life of PVC steel wire pipe is related to the material, wall thickness, working pressure, working temperature and other factors. Generally speaking, the service life of PVC material is 3-5 years; the service life of PVC-U material is 5-8 years; the service life of PVC-C material is 10-15 years.
  5. Choose according to the price
    The price of PVC steel wire pipe is related to the material, wall thickness, specifications and other factors. Generally speaking, the price of PVC material is the lowest; the price of PVC-U material is slightly higher; the price of PVC-C material is the highest.

Common types of PVC steel wire pipe

PVC steel wire pipe can be divided into the following types according to the structural form of the steel wire:
Single-layer steel wire winding pipe: this kind of pipe winds a single layer of steel wire inside the PVC pipe. The structure of this pipe is simple, low cost, but the strength is poor.
Double-layer steel wire winding pipe: this kind of pipe winds two layers of steel wires inside the PVC pipe. This type of pipe has a more complex structure, higher cost, but higher strength.
Steel wire braided pipe: this kind of pipe weaves a layer of steel wire mesh inside the PVC pipe. This kind of pipe has the most complicated structure and the highest cost, but the highest strength.
