PVC pipe has long been valued for its durability and ease of use. This plus the added benefit of being cost effective have made PVC pipe into one of the most widely used materials in the world. It isn’t surprising that other industrial and consumer products are also made of this versatile material. One such product is PVC duct. Used mostly by contractors and builders, PVC duct is a thin walled version of traditional PVC pipe. Because of its thin walls, duct is not used to carry pressurized liquids like standard pipe. Instead, it is used for light drainage, fume, and exhaust applications.
PVC duct is impressively strong and it possesses a host of other beneficial qualities like low thermal conductivity, flammability properties, and chemical and corrosion resistance. PVC duct pipe comes in sizes from 2 inch all the way up to 60 inch! Depending on size, duct can be made two ways: by extrusion or by rolling PVC sheet. Generally, smaller sizes are extruded while larger sizes must be rolled.
