Re: PPR Pipes
I use it on few sites without any problem. Just make sure that is composite, faser-composite type or special as this one.
That is because of thermal stretching of pipe which is high for normal (no composite). Stretching of composite pipe is comparable with steel pipes.
Fittings are same.Last edited by nike123; 02-10-2009 at 11:47 AM.
