The service life of PVC steel wire pipe depends on many factors. Including the use environment, the installation quality of the pipe, the quality of the pipe material, etc. Generally speaking, good quality PVC steel wire pipe can be used for three to five years under normal conditions.
Factors affecting service life
Environmental conditions
Such as exposure to ultraviolet rays will accelerate aging, while underground use will be relatively longer lasting.
Use temperature
PVC steel wire pipe has limited tolerance to high and low temperatures. Therefore, extreme temperatures may affect its elasticity and durability.
Chemical substances
The chemicals that may be exposed or the pH of the water have a certain effect on the durability of PVC pipes.
Mechanical stress
Damage during construction or collisions with external forces will reduce the life of the pipe.
Installation quality
Good installation and maintenance can extend the service life of the pipe. Such as correct brackets, proper fixings, etc.
