Copper Water Tubes/pipes

The copper tubes/copper pipes are available in straight lengths and pancake coils. Sizes outside
our standard range can be produced upon request.

Tubes are ANSI/NSF Standard 61 listed and produced under a Quality Management System
which has been approved and registered by recognised quality organisations to the requirements
of ISO 9001.

Copper water tube, as well as related products and joining methods, must meet stringent
standards and specifications for health effects and performance. Among the important
requirements copper tube must meet are:

ANSI/NSF 61: Drinking Water System Components-Health Effects. This is the health standard
for all plumbing products and materials that come in contact with potable water. Copper water
tube, copper fittings, and copper and brass plumbing valves and fixtures are covered by NSF
Standard 61. The Standard specifies that copper tube be evaluated at a pH of 6.5, rather than at
the pH of 5 and 10 for other material types.

ANSI/ASME B16.22: Wrought Copper and Copper Alloy Solder-Joint Pressure Fittings. As its
name implies, this specification governs the elbows, tees and other solder-type fittings used to
join standard plumbing tube. The copper used in these products has the identical 99.9 percent
purity as standard copper water tube.

ASTM B32: Standard Specification for Solder Metal.This specification covers the solders used
to join copper tube and fittings. Today's plumbing solder contains no lead.
ASTM B 88: Standard Specification for Seamless Copper Water Tube. This specification covers
Copper UNS No. C12200 seamless copper water tube suitable for general plumbing, and similar
applications for the conveyance of fluids, and commonly used with solder, flared or compression
type fittings. The type of copper water tube suitable for any particular application is determined
by the internal or external fluid pressure, by the installation and service conditions and by local
requirements. Means of joining or bending are also factors that affect the type of tube to be used.
