What is sdr pipe?

SDR pipe, also known as Standard Dimension Ratio pipe, is a type of thermoplastic pipe commonly used in the construction industry for various applications such as water and sewage transportation, irrigation, and drainage systems. SDR pipe is manufactured in a wide range of sizes and pressure ratings to suit different requirements.

The SDR value of a pipe indicates the ratio of the pipe's outside diameter to its wall thickness. A higher SDR value indicates a thinner wall thickness, which results in a higher pressure rating for the pipe. SDR pipe is commonly available in SDR 11, SDR 17, and SDR 26 ratings.

SDR pipe is typically made from materials such as PVC (polyvinyl chloride), HDPE (high-density polyethylene), or PP (polypropylene). These materials are chosen for their durability, corrosion resistance, and flexibility, making SDR pipe suitable for use in various environmental conditions.

In addition, SDR pipe is easy to install, lightweight, and cost-effective compared to other types of pipes. It is also known for its long service life and low maintenance requirements, making it a popular choice for construction projects.
