Pipe IVAR.C-STEEL - carbon steel inside/outside galvanized - 22mm; 1,5mm - 6m IVAR.IVCCT

Product detailed description

This carbon steel pipe is commonly used in industrial applications and sprinkler systems where corrosion resistance and durability are essential. It is typically installed in commercial and industrial buildings, including manufacturing facilities, warehouses, and large-scale infrastructure projects. The pipe is designed to handle pressurized air and industrial fluids, making it suitable for dry air systems and fire suppression systems. Installers must ensure correct sizing and compatibility with fittings and accessories to maintain system integrity and performance.

The pipe is manufactured from carbon steel and is galvanized both internally and externally to provide protection against corrosion. It is non-combustible and classified as A1 according to DIN 4202-1. It is not suitable for potable water distribution and should not be used in systems where drinking water is transported.

Technical parameters

Installation and connection

Installation requires standard pipe cutting and threading tools. The pipe is typically connected using threaded fittings with internal threads. Installers should ensure that the threads are clean and free of debris before tightening. Over-tightening can damage the galvanized coating and reduce corrosion resistance. Common installation mistakes include using incorrect thread sealants or failing to check for alignment, which can lead to leaks or stress fractures over time. It is important to verify that the pipe is compatible with the selected fittings and that all connections are secure and properly sealed.

Compatibility and accessories

This pipe is compatible with standard press fittings and threaded components designed for carbon steel pipes. It should be used with fittings that have internal threads matching the pipe's external thread size. When installing, it is necessary to order additional components such as elbows, tees, and couplings to complete the system. Installers should ensure that all components are made from compatible materials to prevent galvanic corrosion and maintain system integrity.

Technical background for designers

The pipe operates by transporting fluids or gases under pressure through a closed system. The carbon steel material provides high strength and rigidity, making it suitable for high-pressure applications. The galvanized coating protects against corrosion from both internal and external environmental factors. The pipe's performance is influenced by the quality of the galvanization, the accuracy of the threading, and the compatibility of the fittings used. Proper design and installation are essential to ensure long-term reliability and efficiency in the system.

Service and operation

Regular inspection is recommended to check for signs of corrosion, leaks, or mechanical damage. The galvanized coating should be inspected for any cracks or peeling that could expose the steel to moisture. If any damage is found, the affected section should be replaced to prevent further degradation. No specific service intervals are provided in the brief, but maintenance should be performed as part of routine system checks. The pipe's non-combustible properties make it suitable for use in environments with fire risks, provided that it is installed according to relevant safety standards.

Frequently asked questions

Can this pipe be used in potable water systems?
No, this pipe is not suitable for potable water distribution. It is intended for industrial and sprinkler systems only.

What type of fittings are compatible with this pipe?
