PVC Type 1 Grade
Type 1 Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) is a versatile thermoplastic that is utilized for its chemical resistance, excellent strength-to-weight ratio, flame resistance, and cost effectiveness. These characteristics combined with Type 1 PVC’s durability, low moisture absorption, and mechanical strength make it ideal to replace wood and metal in a variety of commercial and industrial applications. The material is an excellent option where electrical conductivity is prohibited.
