Plastic Extruder – What are the plastic pipes produced by Plastic Extrusion Machine？

The plastic extruder can continuously produce plastic pipes, so generally, the mass production of plastic pipes is mainly produced by extruders.

According to the materials used in the production of pipes, we can divide plastic pipes into many types.

The editor has sorted out several materials with the highest usage rate nowadays, hoping to provide you with some help.

Of course, the materials listed in this article are only common, and there are many new materials, side-door materials, etc., if you need more information, please call our company for details.

Plastic pipes are mainly used to make water pipes and cable pipes in daily life. With the development of urbanization in modern society, our feet and buildings are gradually changing. Our lives are almost full of pipes. Common classifications are as follows:

1. UPVC pipe (hard polyvinyl chloride plastic pipe, also often referred to as PVC pipe), this material has a small specific gravity, low strength, good chemical stability and self-extinguishing performance, and is often used for drainage, sewage, etc. ventilation system.

2. PE pipe (polyethylene pipe), the pipe produced by this extruder can be divided into high-density, medium-density and low-density polyethylene pipes according to the different density of the pipe. Because of its different physical properties, it can be used in different fields such as urban water supply pipes, agricultural irrigation, electric power, and cable communications.

3. MPP tube, PP-R tube. The major classification belongs to PP pipes, but the classification is refined due to different processing techniques. This kind of pipe is non-toxic and tasteless, has good temperature resistance, and is an ideal material for cold and hot water pipes. We generally use this kind of pipe for civil or industrial cold water systems, beverage transportation systems, hot water heating systems, and so on.

4. PB tube (polybutene tube), this material has higher physical strength, can obtain better creep resistance, and is simple to use. However, the selling price is relatively high, the pipe diameter cannot be produced with a large hole diameter, and certain aromatic hydrocarbons and chlorinated solvents will corrode it to a certain extent, so the actual use of the field is small or there are taboos.

5. ABS tube (acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene tube). This material has poor heat transfer performance and is not suitable for outdoor sun exposure. However, ABS pipe has the advantages of good heat resistance, corrosion resistance, creep resistance, non-toxicity, and tastelessness. Nowadays, this kind of pipe is mainly used in domestic water supply pipes and corrosive media.

6.PE-X pipe (cross-linked polyethylene pipe), this kind of pipe is relatively rare, and is now mainly used for heating pipes in buildings, central air-conditioning pipes, hot water supply pipes, and food delivery pipes in the food industry.

The above are six common plastic pipes of different materials. Our company can provide the plastic extruder production line equipment and auxiliary equipment required for the production of the above several types of pipes. You are welcome to visit the factory.
