expansion coefficient of copper pipes

Sep 29, 2024

Copper pipes (also known as copper pipes) are commonly used in water pipes, heating and refrigeration pipes, and can be used in different environments. Copper pipes combine the advantages of metal and non-metal pipes and are the best connecting pipes in hot and cold water systems. Copper pipes are fire-resistant and heat-resistant, and can maintain their shape and strength at high temperatures without aging.
The pressure resistance of copper pipes is several times or even dozens of times that of plastic pipes and aluminum-plastic pipes. It can withstand the highest water pressure in today's buildings. In a hot water environment, as the service life increases, the pressure-bearing capacity of plastic pipes decreases significantly, while the mechanical properties of copper pipes remain unchanged in all thermal temperature ranges, so their pressure-resistant capacity will not decrease, nor will There will be no aging phenomenon.
The linear expansion coefficient of copper pipes is very small, 1/10 of that of plastic pipes, and will not cause stress fatigue cracking due to excessive thermal expansion and contraction.
Copper pipes have greater strength, and while ensuring the effective inner diameter, the outer diameter is smaller, making them more suitable for concealed burial.
