Copper Pipe
High strength at low temperatures. Commonly used in the manufacture of heat exchange equipment (such as condensers). Also used in the assembly of low-temperature pipelines in oxygen production equipment. Small-diameter copper pipes are often used to transport pressurized liquids (such as lubrication systems, hydraulic systems, etc.) and as pressure measuring pipes for instruments. Copper pipes are robust and corrosion-resistant, making them the first choice for modern contractors in the installation of water supply, heating, and cooling pipes in all residential and commercial buildings.
💰
Economical
Easy to process and connect, copper pipes save on materials and overall installation costs, offering stability, reliability, and eliminating the need for maintenance.
⚖️
Lightweight
Copper pipes do not require the thickness of ferrous metals. Lower transportation costs, easier maintenance, and less space occupied during installation.
🔧
Deformable
Copper pipes can be bent and deformed, easily made into elbows and joints. Smooth bends allow copper pipes to bend at any angle.
🔗
Easy to Connect
Simple and reliable connection methods make copper pipes quick and straightforward to install in any plumbing system.
🛡️
Safe & Durable
Leak-proof, non-combustible, does not produce toxic gases, and is corrosion-resistant. Withstands high temperatures and pressures, suitable for various environments.
Copper pipes are hard, resistant to corrosion, and withstand high temperatures and pressures, making them suitable for use in various environments. In comparison, the disadvantages of many other pipe materials are obvious. For example, galvanized steel pipes, commonly used in older residences, are extremely prone to rust, leading to problems such as yellowing tap water and reduced water flow after a short period of use. Some materials also experience a rapid decrease in strength at high temperatures, posing safety hazards when used in hot water pipes.
🌡️
Copper has a melting point as high as 1083°C, making the temperature of hot water systems negligible for copper pipes — ensuring long-term safety and performance.
🏛️
Archaeologists have discovered copper water pipes dating back 4,500 years inside the Egyptian pyramids — and they are still usable today.
Frequently Asked Questions
❓ What are the main applications of copper pipes?
Copper pipes are widely used in heat exchange equipment such as condensers, low-temperature pipelines in oxygen production equipment, water supply systems, heating and cooling systems, hydraulic systems, lubrication systems, air conditioning, refrigeration, water heaters, and oil cooler pipes in both residential and commercial buildings.
❓ What specifications and sizes are available for your copper pipes?
Our copper pipes are available with an outside diameter ranging from 2mm to 914mm and a wall thickness from 0.5mm to 80mm. Standard lengths include 1m, 2m, 3m, 4m, 5.8m, and 6m, and custom lengths can be produced as required.
❓ Which international standards do your copper pipes conform to?
Our copper pipes conform to multiple international standards including ASTM, JIS, DIN, GB, and EN, ensuring they meet the requirements of customers in various countries and industries worldwide.
❓ What grades of copper are used in your pipes?
We offer copper pipes in grades T1, T2, T3, TU1, TU2, and TU3, with a minimum copper content of 59%. These are non-alloy copper pipes with an ultimate tensile strength of ≥205 MPa and elongation of ≥40%.
❓ What processing services are available, and what are the trade terms?
We offer a range of processing services including bending, decoiling, welding, punching, and cutting. Available trade terms include Ex-Works, CIF, FOB, CFR, and CNF to accommodate different shipping and logistics needs.
❓ Why are copper pipes a better choice compared to galvanized steel pipes?
Unlike galvanized steel pipes, which are prone to rust and can cause yellowing tap water and reduced water flow over time, copper pipes are highly corrosion-resistant, leak-proof, non-combustible, and do not produce toxic gases. With a melting point of 1083°C, copper pipes maintain structural integrity even in high-temperature environments, making them a safer and more durable long-term solution.
