Steel pipe 28x1.5x6 m - thin-walled crimped galvanized carbon steel /6m/ PCTUBE-EU28

Application and Characteristics of 28 mm Steel Pipe

A steel pipe with dimensions 28x1.5 mm and a length of 6 meters is an element designed for installation systems where the combination of mechanical strength and corrosion resistance is crucial. Made of thin-walled carbon steel, it features single-sided galvanic zinc coating, which significantly extends its service life in environments with moisture or oxidation risk. This construction makes the product an ideal choice for installation in heating, ventilation, or technological systems where rigidity and resistance to high pressures are required.

Thanks to a wall thickness of 1.5 mm, the pipe behaves as a rigid element, facilitating the routing of installation lines without the need for additional supports at short intervals. Surface galvanization not only protects against rust but also facilitates the installation of press-fit connectors, ensuring clean and aesthetically pleasing joints. It is worth noting that this pipe is compatible with Press Carbon connectors and other system elements based on the PN-EN 10305-3 standard.

Installation and System Compatibility

A key feature of this pipe is its intended use with press-fitting (press) joining methods. This requires the use of appropriate mounting jaws – for a 28 mm diameter, jaws with profile B (often designated as profile V in Rems systems) must be used. This process guarantees a tight and durable connection without the need for threading or welding at the installation site.

In applications requiring operation at higher temperatures, the system allows for seal modification. The standard black EPDM elastomer (compliant with PN-EN 549) can be replaced with green fluorocarbon rubber (FKM). This enables the installation to operate within a wider temperature range without the risk of seal degradation. However, it should be noted that connectors dedicated to this pipe are not intended for potable water installations.

Basic technical data influencing material selection include thin-walled carbon steel and an outer diameter of 28 mm with a wall thickness of 1.5 mm. The entire surface is covered with a galvanic or electrolytic zinc layer for corrosion protection. The joining method requires the use of jaws with profile B (V), and the material meets the requirements of the PN-EN 10305-3 standard. In the case of threaded connection fittings, the pipe complies with standards PN-EN 10226-1 and PN-EN ISO 228-1.

System Durability and Warranty

The product is part of a broader ecosystem of pipes and connectors covered by a 10-year manufacturer's warranty. This means that with correct installation according to the instructions and the use of dedicated accessories (profile B jaws), the installation should perform its functions for many years without mechanical failures or leaks. Carbon steel provides adequate structural rigidity, while the thin wall optimizes material weight while maintaining the strength parameters required in standard industrial and construction installations.

It is worth paying attention to compliance with standards regarding connection threads – if the pipe is used at transition points to threaded components, it meets the requirements of PN-EN 10226-1 for tapered threads and PN-EN ISO 228-1 for parallel threads. This allows for seamless integration with various types of valve or pump fittings while maintaining full joint tightness.
