Thomsun PN-16 PPR Pipe, 90mm x 4m, High-Pressure Plumbing Pipe for Hot & Cold Water

PN-16 indicates the pipe’s nominal pressure rating of 16 bar at standard testing conditions. This means it’s designed to handle relatively high working pressures in typical plumbing and water-supply applications.

Key specs: 90 mm outer diameter, 4 m length, PN-16 pressure rating, made from PPR-C resin, resistant to corrosion and chemicals, compatible with PPR socket fittings for easy installation.

Common uses include cold and hot water distribution in residential and commercial buildings, radiant floor heating systems, and general piping networks in industrial settings where chemical resistance and durability are important.

For a proper installation, use compatible PPR socket fittings and a heat-fusion (socket fusion) process. You’ll typically need a PPR fusion tool, a pipe cutter, deburring tools, and clean rags. Cut the pipe square, deburr the edges, dry-fit to verify alignment, and then fuse with the fittings according to your tool’s instructions.

This pipe works with standard PPR socket fittings, such as elbows, tees, adapters, and valves designed for PPR-C systems. Use only compatible PPR fittings and ensure clean, burr-free joints for reliable fusion.

Follow local plumbing codes and installation guidelines. Wear appropriate PPE when cutting and fusing, ensure proper ventilation, and store the pipe away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to maintain material properties. Use compatible fittings and tools to ensure safe, reliable joints.

Measure the piping run carefully and account for fittings and bends. PPR systems can expand with temperature, so plan for slight expansion allowances. When in doubt, consult installation guidelines for expansion loops or spacing recommendations specific to your project.

If you need to return this product, you can request a return within the store’s specified window, provided the item is in unused, original condition and packaging. Return processes and eligibility are subject to the store’s terms and conditions.

Common issues include poorly fused joints, which can cause leaks, and expansion-related gaps under temperature changes. Ensure proper fusion procedure, correct melting time, and clean, burr-free ends. Always pressure-test the system after installation to verify joints are watertight.
