What is the difference between GP pipe and GI pipe?
GP pipe and GI pipe are both types of galvanized pipes, but they are made in different ways. GP pipe is made by electroplating zinc onto thin sheets of carbon steel, while GI pipe is made by dipping the steel sheets in a molten bath of zinc. GP pipe has a smoother finish than GI pipe, which makes it more resistant to corrosion and rust. However, GP pipe is also more expensive than GI pipe. GI pipe is less expensive than GP pipe, but it is not as resistant to corrosion and rust. GI pipe is also more likely to have a rough finish, which can make it more difficult to clean. Which type of pipe is right for you will depend on your specific needs and budget. If you need a pipe that is highly resistant to corrosion and rust, then GP pipe is the better choice. However, if you are on a budget, then GI pipe is a good option. Here are some additional uses for GP and GI pipes: Water supply: GP and GI pipes are commonly used for water supply lines, both underground and above ground. Drainage: GP and GI pipes are also used for drainage lines, both indoors and outdoors. Plumbing: GP and GI pipes are used for a variety of plumbing applications, such as sewer lines, gas lines, and vent pipes.
