Question 2

What are the exact specifications of this pipe?

Accepted Answer

Diameter: 20 mm; Wall thickness: 1.3 mm; Length: 3.75 m; Material: galvanized iron with a protective coating; designed for high-pressure and outdoor use while offering ease of installation.

Question 3

Is this pipe safe for potable water systems?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the galvanized iron pipe is suitable for potable water supply when properly installed with appropriate fittings and complying with local codes and standards.

Question 4

What are the common applications I can use this pipe for?

Accepted Answer

Common uses include water supply, irrigation, drainage, sewage, gas supply, and lightweight structural support in both indoor and outdoor projects.

Question 5

How do I install or cut and join this pipe?

Accepted Answer

Cut the pipe to length with a suitable metal saw, deburr edges, and join using compatible 20 mm galvanized fittings. Ensure all joints are properly sealed or threaded as required by your system, and support the pipe adequately to prevent sagging.

Question 6

What fittings work best with this 20mm GI pipe?

Accepted Answer

Use standard 20 mm galvanized fittings compatible with the diameter. Depending on your system, you may need threaded or slip-fit connections; always match the fitting type to the joint design of the pipe and ensure corrosion protection at joints.

Question 7

How should I maintain or care for this pipe over time?

Accepted Answer

The pipe is designed for low maintenance due to its galvanized coating. Regularly inspect for any coating wear or corrosion, keep the surface clean, and protect exposed joints from damage or impact to extend its life.

Question 8

What safety considerations should I follow when handling and installing this pipe?

Accepted Answer

Wear appropriate PPE (gloves and eye protection), handle with care to avoid bending or denting, avoid sharp edges, and ensure proper support and secure connections to prevent leaks or failures. Follow local codes for installation and use compatible tools and fittings.

Question 9

How does this pipe compare to PVC pipes for plumbing projects?

Accepted Answer

Galvanized iron pipes offer robust mechanical strength and better heat tolerance than PVC, making them suitable for higher-temperature or high-pressure scenarios. PVC pipes are generally lighter and cheaper, with easier cutting, but may not perform as well under high heat or certain outdoor exposure conditions.

Question 10

How does this 20mm GI pipe compare to a 25mm galvanized iron pipe in terms of use and performance?

Accepted Answer

The 25mm GI pipe provides higher flow capacity for larger fittings and heavier-duty runs, while the 20mm pipe is more compact and easier to handle for smaller-diameter applications. See: https://fepy.com/product/galvanized-iron-pipe-25mm-1-6mm-3m

Question 11

How does this pipe compare to a 20mm GI pipe with a thicker wall (e.g., 1.5mm) in terms durability and cost?

Accepted Answer

A thicker-walled 20mm GI pipe (1.5 mm) offers greater mechanical strength and resistance to internal pressure but may cost slightly more and be less flexible to install in tight spaces. Compare with: https://fepy.com/product/galvanized-iron-pipe-20mm-1-5mm-3m

Question 12

Is this galvanized iron pipe recyclable and environmentally friendly?

Accepted Answer

Yes, galvanised iron pipes are recyclable and considered eco-friendly due to their durability and potential for reuse or recycling at end of life. For alternative material comparisons, you can also explore eco-friendly options like PVC or stainless steel pipes on Fepy.
