Hi,

Where do you find PVC Piping 50mm class 6 in black?

Midrand or Pretoria if possible.

How much should it cost for a 6m length?

Thanks,
Cameron

Where can I buy from the wholesaler/manufacturer. R32 a metre is a bit ridiculous.

Hi Cam

You must immigrate to the Free State. At Prestige Irrigation you will pay R70 a 6m length, and a very friendly sale lady to help you.
Very Happy

So off I go to Plasticor to get class 6 piping and fittings.

One of the guys there kept asking me why are you using class 6 pvc for a swimming pool pump because that piping takes up to 16 bar pressure and a swimming pool pump can barely make 2 bar..

He recommended I just use the standard white pvc piping that is SABS approved but doesn't have a class rating.

He also claimed the blue pvc goes brittle in the sun and the white doesn't.

Any comments?
