Leak proof joints Rubber seals are provided with the thread at every joint ensuring 100% leak proof. Not pressure tight, No rubber seal & hence NOT Leak proof.
Strong threaded joints Specially designed square Threads, which DO NOT corrode, rust or deteriorate. Threads are prone to rust and corrosion easily.

Why PVC For Column Pipes ?

For many years, Metal pipes have been used with submersible pumps to get the water from ground. These pipes are corrode and scaled in their life span and giving troubles to the owner in terms of qty of water and also the pumping cost. PVC has excellent chemical and corrosion resistance to a broad range of fluids. So PVC can give trouble free service for many years.

Secondly, among all thermoplastics also, PVC is the material which can be compounded and modify keeping in the mind of special characteristics required for pipes to be used with submersible pumps. This versatility is not observed with other thermoplastics like Polyethylene (PE). Hence PVC contributes to major usage as piping material globally.

Why SAGAR Column Pipes ?

SAGAR column pipes have been developed as a result of SAGAR's constant endeavor to develop superior yet economical piping solution for submersible pumps. The compound has been developed at SAGAR's R & D lab after many trials and constant research with the help of German technology. SAGAR's expertise in introducing better compound in Indian Market, comes true yet another time with introducing completely Eco Friendly column pipes

Handling And Storage

Handling

The pipe should be handled with reasonable care. Because Column Pipes are much lighter in weight than metal pipe. There is sometimes a tendency to throw it around. This should be avoided.

The pipe should never be dragged or pushed from a truck bed. Pallets for pipe should be removed with a fork lift. Loose pipe can be rolled down timbers, as long as the pieces do not fall on each other or on any hard or uneven surface. In all cases, severe contact with any sharp objects (rocks, angle irons, forks on forklifts, etc.) should be avoided.

Storage

If possible, pipe should be stored inside. When this is not possible, the pipe should be stored on level ground which is dry and free from sharp objects. If different schedules of pipes are stacked together, the pipe with the thickest walls should be at the bottom.

The pipe should be protected from the sun and be in an area with proper ventilation. This will lessen the effects of ultraviolet rays and help prevent heat built-up.

If the pipe is stored in racks, it should be continuously supported along its length. If this is not possible, the spacing of the supports should not exceed three feet (3’).

When storage temperatures are below 0°C (32°F), extra care should be taken when handling the pipe. This will help prevent any problems which could be caused by the slightly lower impact strength of uPVC pipe at temperature below freezing.
