Comparison of C and K grades of ductile iron pipes
Using more than 18 cast iron, after adding the spheroidizing agent, the centrifugal casting of ductile iron machine caused by high-speed centrifugal tube, known as "ductile iron pipe."".
C grade tube is the latest international standard for ductile iron pipes. The product standard is ISO2531:2009, which is compared with the original standard ISO2531:2003 class K pipe code. Pipe usage remains unchanged. But the new standard (C pipe) classification is based on the allowable work pressure grade of the pipe, while the original standard (grade K tube) is classified according to the pipe wall thickness grade.
The nominal pressure ratio of the C class pipe is lower than that of the K grade tube, and the applied pressure is low.
