Why Should We Choose PVC Ventilation Pipe for Mining?

Some Advantages of PVC Ventilation Pipe

PVC is one of the oldest and most widely used plastics, with many desirable properties and possibilities. PVC is affordable and recyclable, and has been thoroughly researched to ensure its safety. Therefore, the ventilation duct made of PVC coated fabric also takes into account the characteristics of PVC.

First of all, PVC is a waterproof and mildew resistant material. The underground construction environment is very humid, so water and mildew resistance are very important. Prolonged exposure to mold can cause irreversible damage to workers’ respiratory system. The PVC pipe can be 100% waterproof, which ensures that the inside of the air duct is dry, ensuring that dry air can be transported. In addition, mold inhibitor is an indispensable additive when we make PVC pipes. It makes the ventilation ducts less likely to get moldy like canvas even if they are soaked in water.

In addition to being waterproof and mildew resistant, another advantage of PVC ventilation ducts is that they are very flexible and easy to bend. As we all know, the underground construction environment is very complex, and you may encounter a variety of geographical conditions. PVC pipe is very flexible and can be bent and deflected arbitrarily, which makes it able to cater to complex environments.

Furthermore, PVC ventilation pipes also have anti-static and flame retardant characteristics. Through the anti-static and flame retardant treatment of the air duct cloth can deal with dust, flammable and explosive mining environment.

Finally, the cost performance of PVC ventilation pipes is very high. It is lightweight and easy to install and maintain. Compared with steel pipes, the quality of PVC pipes is very light, and it does not need to spend too much labor cost when installing. In addition, it is also a very simple matter to maintain and repair PVC pipes. It supports repair methods such as glue, zipper repair tape, Velcro repair tape and portable heat gun.

Since PVC pipes have so many benefits, what reasons are there for us not to choose them?
