How to Judge the Quality of PVC Hose Pipe?

In daily life, people often use PVC hoses, that is, water pipes. PVC hose can be used in many fields, but it will break before long after use. It's because people can't distinguish the quality and bought inferior PVC hose. Now we'll tell you how to distinguish the quality of PVC hose.


Environmental friendly PVC colloidal particles are used for PVC wire pipes, which are dried, heated, melted and extruded by the extruder, and then packaged in rolls after cooling.


Ⅰ. Wide application of PVC hose pipe

PVC hose products can be customized in a variety of specifications, sizes and colors as required. They are soft, wear-resistant, acid-resistant, cold-resistant, corrosion-resistant, oxidation-resistant, and have excellent flame retardancy and electrical insulation. The use temperature is -30℃-+105℃,  and the application range is very wide.


PVC hose can be widely used in the fields of electronic components, household appliances, automobiles, machinery, toys and stationery sports goods. This has also led to a lot of substandard products flowing into the market, people wasted their money on them, while the quality of PVC hose products is still very poor.


Ⅱ. Steps to judge the quality of PVC hose pipe

1. Measure


(1) Measure hose wall thickness:


To see whether the PVC hose pipe meets the specified hose wall thickness, we should also pay attention to that some pipes are evacuated, with hose wall thickness at both ends meeting the requirements. But its middle wall thickness is thinner, which does not meet the requirements for use. At the same time, the cost is reduced by evacuating.


(2) Measure length:


See if the PVC flexible hose pipe has reached the specified length. Some manufacturers reduce the price by shortening the length. Negative deviation is not allowed according to GB / t10002.1-2006.


2. Look at:


(1) Look at the gloss of PVC hose

A product with a good gloss and a very oily surface is a high-quality product.


(2) Look at the color of the PVC hose

The standard PVC-U pipeline is light beige. If the pipeline is white, it means that the calcium powder is added excessively. Some manufacturers add too much miscellaneous materials and recycled materials, causing the pipe to turn black and yellow.


3. Weigh


Weighing: compare the weight of two hoses with the same diameter, hose wall thickness and length. The calcium powder and impurities with high weight are added too much, and the material is impure, which can not meet the requirements.


4. Throw


If possible, you can step on the edge of the PVC hose to see if it can be easily crushed. Take a PVC hose and throw it to the ground. If it is broken, then the hose is a 'high calcium tablet'. Some manufacturers add excessive calcium powder in hose production in order to save costs and improve profits, so such hose is cheap. But its stiffness is much lower, and it's fragile and unqualified.
