Bacteriostatic Round Copper Tube A Wide Variety Of Sizes

 
Our Advantages
 
1. We have more than 10 years of experience in copper pipe production and complete testing equipment. The pipe's blasting pressure, tensile strength and elongation are all above the national standard. Ensure stable quality of ex-factory products and meet the requirements of users under various natural conditions.
2. Through the strict control of the production process and mold management, the wall thickness of the copper tube is ensured to be more uniform, which makes it more resistant to pressure and more durable.Copper tubes with uniform wall thickness can withstand greater pressure, lower probability of blasting leakage, longer service life, and customers have more choices of wall thickness.
3. Our copper tubes are all produced with high purity electrolytic copper plate (purity more than 99.95%), with excellent surface quality, no inclusion, trachoma, cracking and other phenomena, eliminating the possibility of refrigerant leakage in these defective places.
 

Copper is one of the most popular materials used in plumbing, but it cannot be very clear to differentiate between copper pipe and tube. Both are made of copper, but each has distinct characteristics that make them suitable for different applications. Let’s explore what makes these two materials unique, so you can decide which is suitable for your needs.

Copper Pipe vs. Tube:

The main difference between copper pipe and tube comes from usage and characteristics. Copper pipe is typically used for plumbing, while the copper tube is used in heating and cooling systems in residential, commercial, or industrial settings. However, both types of copper piping are highly resistant to corrosion and do not require additional treatment before installation.

Copper Pipe:

Copper pipes are hollow cylinders that range from 1/8-inch up to 8-inch in diameter. It is usually sold in rolls or lengths and can be cut down with a saw or pipe cutters. The ends of the pipes must be threaded before they can be attached to another piece of pipe or a fitting. This type of piping is best suited for projects where there will be no movement or vibration because the connection points may become loose over time if exposed to those conditions.

Copper Tube:

Copper tubes are also hollow cylinders, but they are smaller than copper pipes—generally ranging from 1/16-inch up to 2-inches in diameter—and come pre-cut with threads on each end so they can be attached directly to other components without any additional preparation. This makes them a great choice for projects with movement or vibration because the connections remain more secure over time than those made with copper pipes. Additionally, copper tubes can handle higher temperatures than copper pipes, so they are often chosen for hot water lines in homes or businesses and air conditioning systems in industrial facilities.

Copper pipe is typically used for plumbing applications, while copper tube is generally used for electrical applications.

Copper pipe is made from a single piece of copper, while the copper tube is made from multiple pieces of copper that are welded together.

Copper pipe is typically less expensive than the copper tube.

Copper pipe is available in various sizes and lengths, while copper tube is only available in a limited number of dimensions.

Copper pipe can be cut with a hacksaw, while copper tube must be cut with a tubing cutter.

 
FAQ
 
1. Why use copper tubing?
Copper tubing is often preferred in plumbing applications due to several of its unique properties:
Excellent conductive material, great for transferring heat in HVAC setups
Difficult material for bacteria to grow on, ideal for use in water-carrying applications
Copper tubing is a strong and durable material that doesn’t corrode easily, yet offers enough flexibility for buildings and systems that require tight bends and cornering
 
2. What tool can you use to cut copper pipes?
Copper tubes can be cut using a tubing cutter or a hacksaw.
