Description As part of a growing range of engineered drainage solutions, ACO PIPE® presents a wide range of socketed waste pipework systems in thin-wall stainless steel for above and below ground drainage applications. ACO PIPE® stainless steel socketed pipe systems provide the modern metal alternative to PVC-u and cast iron soil and waste pipework. ACO PIPE® socketed stainless steel systems significantly reduces installation time and associated costs along with long term maintenance and care costs. ACO PIPE® stainless steel pipework systems are manufactured from austenitic stainless steel in grades 304 and 316. All products are chemically pickled passivated for optimum durability and corrosion resistance. Surface treatment by means of electropolishing or varnishing is available. Recognised for long service and its easily cleaned characteristics, stainless steel's hard, smooth surface provides efficient flow for water and waste products. ACO PIPE® sockets are fitted with EPDM seals as standard for regular drainage applications above and below ground. For particularly aggressive chemical applications, 316 grade stainless steel with Viton® seals can be specified for the ultimate in system durability. Key Features & Benefits: Easy installation Highly corrosion resistant Lightweight and easy to handle Double sealed jointing system Simple push-fit assembly Low thermal expansion coefficient No painting required Aesthetically pleasing Electro-polished option Sustainable material Hygienic
