Multilayer Composite Pipe Innovative FlowGuard® Bendable composite pipe combines the corrosion-resistant benefits of CPVC with the flexibility and strength of aluminum in this one-of-a-kind, multi-layer pipe. Designed specifically for use under-slab, this new bendable piping system is significantly less expensive than type L copper.
FlowGuard® Bendable consists of an inner layer of CPVC, a middle layer of butt-welded aluminum and an outside layer of CPVC. All of the layers are bonded with an adhesive that has been proven by ASTM testing to withstand water temperatures up to 180F (82°c). Assembly of the pipe incorporates an internal bushing and the standard ASTRAL CPVC fitting, along with the use of one-step solvent cement.
This kink-resistant system allows for long runs of potable water pipe to be bent and protrude through concrete with all joints made above grade. Its excellent combination of flexibility and rigidity keeps the pipe workable, yet it stays in place. This unique combination results in reduced installation time which translates into a lower installed cost compared to other piping options.
