General grade
Although CPVC is based on PVC, and shares a few of the same characteristics, it is still a unique polymer. CPVC is a high temperature grade (up to 200°F) chlorinated polyvinyl chloride that provides excellent corrosion resistance, high heat resistance, chemical resistance, inherent flame resistivity, good tensile strength, weather-ability and is easily fabricated. These characteristics make CPVC a useful material in a wide range of markets including the chemical processing and metal finishing industries.
CPVC can be easily machined with standard wood-working tools. In addition, CPVC can be fiberglass backed, hot-gas welded with rod, cemented, (solvent bonded) riveted, and threaded.
