1. Different raw materials. PPR pipe is mainly made of copolymer polypropylene, so PPR pipe is also called type three polypropylene pipe, while PVC is made of polyvinyl chloride material. The two pipes have different performance characteristics due to different main materials. It is also because of the raw materials that PPR pipes are mostly hot melt during installation, and PVC pipes are mostly glued.
2. Different wall thickness. The wall thickness of the PPR pipe is divided into four parts, six parts, etc., the wall thickness of the four parts is 2.3mm, and the thickness of the 6 parts is 3.5mm. PVC pipes are calculated with a diameter of 6mm and a wall thickness of 2.0mm, a nominal diameter of 8-10mm and a wall thickness of 2.5mm.
3. Different uses. PPR pipe is used as a water pipe, divided into cold water pipe and hot water pipe. PVC pipes are suitable for wire penetration through walls and sewage pipes.
