What is the difference between pipe and hoses?
Generally a hose is flexible and a pipe is not. I was laying pipe in your girlfriend last night... whereas she and her friends are hose. I hope that helps.
Is PVC flexible?
The smaller sizes are more flexible. Colder temps affect flexibility.
What are 5 important pipes?
Five important types of pipes are: PVC Pipes: Widely used for plumbing and drainage due to their resistance to corrosion and lightweight nature. Copper Pipes: Known for their durability and excellent heat conductivity, commonly used in water supply lines and refrigeration. Steel Pipes: Often used in construction and industrial applications for their strength and ability to handle high pressures. PEX Pipes: Flexible and resistant to scale and chlorine, making them popular for residential plumbing systems. Cast Iron Pipes: Traditionally used for sewer and drainage systems due to their durability and sound-dampening properties.
Why is it a disadvantage for hydraulic systems to have flexible tubes?
If the hoses ("tubes") expand, the pressure available at the working device will be lower, reducing the force available. Also, if the hoses are moving around because they are flexible, they are more likely to get worn or damaged.
Why do plumbers use copper pipes?
because the pipes don't rust as easy, and silver and gold are too expensive. That is another persons answer. Here are the main 3 reasons plumbers use copper pipes. Copper pipes are relatively non-toxic-unlike lead. Copper pipes do not suffer corrosion-as iron does. Copper pipes are relatively soft and easy to work with-unlike both iron and lead. However more and more homes are now using the plastic pipe such as Pvc and Cpvc which seems to serve the same purpose and are also safe, although both can be used, you still need to find out what code calls for in your city or town an abide by it.
What advantages do flexible pipes have over ridged metal pipes during an earthquake?
Flexible pipes can protect against somemovement.
What advantage do flexible water pipes have over rigid pipes during an earthquake?
Flexible water pipes can better absorb and withstand the ground movements during an earthquake, reducing the risk of pipe breakage and water leaks. This flexibility helps prevent water damage and potential flooding, making them a safer option for seismic-prone areas.
Are rigid pipes less likely or more likely to burst than flexible pipes during an earthquakes?
Rigid pipes are more likely to burst since they are more brittle and cannot travel as far when subject to strain.
What are the differences between PVC and ABS pipes in terms of their durability, flexibility, and chemical resistance?
PVC pipes are more flexible and resistant to chemicals compared to ABS pipes. However, ABS pipes are generally more durable and impact-resistant than PVC pipes.
Are no lead water pipes less quality than pipes containing lead?
Lead was used for water pipes because it is cheaper, more malleable, and more flexible, and can be welded together easily. But it should not be used for water pipes of any kind because of the risk of water contamination. Metals such as copper are more expensive but superior in performance, and modern PVC is much lighter and easier to use for drainage pipes, and for pipes not carrying great pressure.
Are cigars and pipes safer to smoke than cigarettes?
No they are not, pipe and cigar smoking to decreased lung function.
What is the scientific element of the wind singer?
Is pipes and pipes and more pipes.
What is difference between PVC and uPVC pipes?
The main difference between PVC (polyvinyl chloride) and uPVC (unplasticized polyvinyl chloride) pipes is the composition of the material. PVC pipes contain added plasticizers to make them more flexible, whereas uPVC pipes are rigid and do not contain plasticizers, making them better suited for pressure applications such as water supply lines. uPVC pipes are also more resistant to chemical corrosion and are typically used in plumbing and drainage systems.
What helps pipe lines from breaking during an earthquake?
By using PVC pipes because they are strong and flexible. Also Lead pipes work too, but lead is very poisonous.
Is twitter more safer then Facebook?
yes twitter is more safer than Facebook.
Are lead pipes safe for use in plumbing systems?
Lead pipes are not considered safe for use in plumbing systems because lead can leach into the water supply, posing health risks such as lead poisoning. It is recommended to replace lead pipes with safer alternatives.
How do you spell safer?
That is the correct spelling of "safer" (more safe).
