Silver-Line offers drop pipe in both Sch 80 and Sch 120 (Threaded, Both Ends). These products are traditionally used in Well and Pump applications.
All threaded pipe is supplied with a plastic cap on each end to protect the thread until installation.
Silver-Line threaded pipe offers ease of installation with a chamfered and beveled end to ease the initial coupling of the threads and allow better tightening.
Warning: Do NOT use PVC piping systems to store or convey compressed air. Doing so may cause the PVC to shatter explosively and unexpectedly, resulting in severe injury and damage
Standard Compliances:
- ASTM D-1785, standard for pressure pipe

*Maximum depth recommendations are calculated per the formula below:
Maximum Depth = (Pressure Rating of Pipe – Discharge Pressure) * 2.31
Note: 1 psi = 2.31 ft.H2O
**Maximum Flow Rate is based on a water velocity of 5 ft/s to minimize excessive surge pressures.
We recommend that installers of Sch 80 or Sch 120 pipe in well applications should support the pump by using a cable or rope.
The length of the coupling used to join PVC threaded pipe should be at least 2 inches.
For the use of torque arrestors and centering devices, follow the manufacturer’s recommendations.
