Stainless Steel Socketed Pipe Systems

ACO has developed a range of stainless steel pipe systems for multi-drainage applications.

ACO Piperegistration mark stainless steel socketed pipe systems provide the modern metal alternative to PVC and HDPE soil and waste pipework. The range is completely compatible with ACO floor drains, channel systems and stormwater drainage products, which make up the complete portfolio for building drainage.

ACO Piperegistration mark is manufactured from austenitic stainless steel, grade 316. All products are chemically pickled and passivated for optimum durability and corrosion resistance.

ACO Piperegistration mark, pipes and fittings are available in 50mm, 75mm, 110mm, 125mm, 160mm and 200mm (external diameters) with pipes supplied as standard from 0.15 metre up to 6 metre lengths for optimum practicality and ease of assembly. 250mm diameter pipes are made to order.

Stainless Steel Socketed Pipe Systems

Key Benefits

1. Comprehensive range - pipe lengths up to 6 metres for diameters up to 160mm.

2. Ease of installation – components are lightweight and push fit for quick assembly.

3. Optimum joint integrity - components have a low coefficient of thermal expansion compared with HDPE (in particular) which tends to fail when operating temperatures vary between 10°C and 60°C.

4. Superior seal security - components comprise a unique double lip sealing system, ideal for extraneous conditions (see image below).

5. Long service life - components manufactured from grade 316 stainless steel for high corrosion resistance and low on-going maintenance (see page 4).

6. Quality design & manufacture - components exhibit better geometric concentricity, fitting design and weld quality than any other product in the industry.

7. Connection adaptability – components are suitable for either push-fit or weldup connection methods.

Reference Standards

ACO Pipe® is designed, manufactured, tested and checked according to the standards EN 1124-1 and EN 1124-2: Pipes and fittings of longitudinally welded stainless steel pipes with spigot and socket for waste water systems. Additionally, ACO Pipe® has been assessed and complies to AS3495: Stainless steel non pressure pipes and fittings.

  angles, branches, accessories and installation devices reduce the amount of on-site cutting and installation time

Operating Pressure

ACO Pipe®, pipes and fittings are fitted with a unique, double seal. The double seal arrangement provides added security for long term reliability.

ACO Pipe® is tested and approved for operating pressures in all gravity, syphonic and vacuum systems and is designed for a maximum working pressure of 0.5bar and 0.9bar (in clean vacuum applications). In the case where higher pressure may apply, it will be necessary to install the system with socket clamps. (See pages 20 and 24.)

7. A 10° bevel facilitates easy
  connection of sections.
  Where required, all joints can be fully circumferentially welded for extra security.

 

1mm minimum wall thickness provides a lightweight, easy to handle system that can withstand everyday wear and tear
