Charlotte Pipe PVC16012B0600 Sdr 26 Pvc Pipe 1-1/4 in

Product Description

The Charlotte Pipe Foundry PVC16012B0600 is a 1-1/4-inch SDR 26 solid wall PVC pressure pipe in a 20-foot length with a bell end. It carries a 160 psi pressure rating and is manufactured to ASTM D-2241 standards, making it appropriate for potable water distribution and other pressure-rated piping applications. The solid wall construction and SDR 26 dimension ratio deliver consistent wall thickness and reliable performance under sustained pressure. Plumbers and pipefitters install this pipe in residential and light commercial water service systems where a rated, code-compliant PVC pressure pipe is required.

This pipe is suited for underground and above-grade pressure piping in residential water service, irrigation, and related pressure applications. The bell end simplifies solvent-welded or gasketed joint connections and eliminates the need for a separate coupling at each joint. NSF Standard 14 and 61 listings confirm the material is evaluated for use in potable water systems, making it appropriate where health-code compliance is required.

Key Features

• 160 psi working pressure rating at standard service temperature
• SDR 26 dimension ratio provides uniform wall thickness along the full 20-foot length
• Solid wall construction for consistent structural integrity
• Bell end configuration speeds joint assembly and reduces fitting count
• ASTM D-2241 compliance ensures dimensional and material conformance
• NSF Standard 14 and 61 listed for potable water service

Compatibility

Designed for use in SDR 26 pressure piping systems using standard 1-1/4-inch PVC pressure fittings and solvent-cement or gasketed joints rated for ASTM D-2241 pipe in pressure water service applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC requirements. Shut off and depressurize the supply line before cutting into any existing system. Use PVC-rated solvent cement and primer appropriate for pressure service, and allow full cure time before pressurizing. Avoid exceeding the 160 psi rated working pressure and account for temperature-related pressure derating in elevated-temperature service environments.
