20mm PPR Pipe — Hot & Cold Water Supply Pipe (Per Metre)
The Backbone of Every Modern Plumbing System
The 20mm PPR Pipe is the go-to choice for residential and commercial hot and cold water distribution systems. Made from premium Polypropylene Random Copolymer (PPR), this pipe is engineered to handle the demands of modern plumbing — from high-temperature hot water lines to high-pressure cold water supply — without corroding, scaling, or degrading over time. Its smooth green exterior and clean inner bore make it easy to work with and built to last for decades.
Key Specifications
- Outer Diameter: 20mm (DN20)
- Material: Polypropylene Random Copolymer (PPR) — food-grade, non-toxic
- Colour: Green — standard PPR pipe colour
- Temperature Rating: Suitable for hot water (up to 95°C) and cold water systems
- Pressure Rating: PN20 — suitable for high-pressure water supply systems
- Connection Method: Heat-fusion (butt welding) — permanent, leak-free joints
- Inner Surface: Smooth bore — minimises friction loss and prevents scale build-up
How It Connects
PPR pipes are joined using a heat-fusion welding tool that melts both the pipe end and the fitting socket simultaneously. When pressed together, they fuse into a single, monolithic joint — stronger than the pipe itself and completely leak-proof. No glue, no clamps, no thread tape required.
Common Applications
- Residential hot and cold water distribution
- Bathroom, kitchen, and utility room water supply
- Overhead tank and borehole supply lines
- Commercial and industrial building plumbing
- Solar water heater and boiler feed lines
- Chilled water and air conditioning systems
