Polypropylene cross (PPR) d.20

Polypropylene crossbar (PPR) is an important element in plumbing and heating systems due to its exceptional durability and efficiency characteristics. It is made of polypropylene, a plastic material known for its resistance to high temperatures and pressure.

Type: Polypropylene cross The polypropylene cross (PPR) is designed to connect and distribute water flow in four directions, used in piping systems for hot and cold water, as well as in heating systems. Its rugged construction and efficient design make it ideal for use in a variety of applications, including residential and commercial installations.

Diameter: 20 mm This type of cross has a diameter of 20 mm, which makes it suitable for medium-sized pipes. The diameter size is important to determine compatibility with other components of the piping system and ensure optimal water flow.

Pressure (bar): 16 Polypropylene crosspiece is designed for pressure up to 16 bar. This ability to withstand high pressure makes it suitable for drinking water and high pressure heating systems. Its strength and ability to maintain integrity under pressure make this spider a reliable choice for long-lasting installations.

Material: PPR The material used to make this cross is polypropylene (PPR), a thermoplastic polymer known for its excellent properties. Polypropylene provides chemical, thermal and mechanical resistance, able to withstand high temperatures and the corrosive effects of a variety of chemicals. In addition, PPR has a smooth internal surface that minimizes deposits and reduces pressure loss, thus ensuring efficient water circulation.

The benefits of using a PPR cross include:

Durability and strength: Polypropylene is a durable material that can withstand harsh operating conditions and mechanical wear. This ensures a long service life of the installation.
High Temperature Resistance: PPR is able to withstand high temperatures, making it ideal for hot water and heating systems.
Non-toxic and safe for drinking water: The material does not release toxic substances into water, making it safe for use in drinking water systems.
Easy to Install: Polypropylene is lightweight and easy to handle, simplifying the installation process and reducing time and labor costs.
Corrosion Resistant: PPR does not corrode, ensuring trouble-free operation and reducing the need for frequent maintenance.

The 20mm diameter, 16 bar pressure resistant polypropylene cross is therefore an essential component of any modern piping system. Selecting this type of spider provides optimal performance, safety and durability, making it ideal for use in a variety of industrial and domestic applications.
