“KANTAM” Sewerage Waste Rainwater (SWR) Pipes & Fittings

KANTAM S.W.R. system is manufactured from a specially formulated unplasticised polyvinyl chloride compound (pvc). These pipes & fittings are tough and durable with high tensile and impact strength and are manufactured in accordance to IS: 13592 – 1992 & fittings to IS: 14735 – 1999. Rubber rings confirm to IS:5382.

Features & Benefits

  • Considerable saving in time, labor and costs due to lightweight, high impact strength, easy and quick assembly.
  • Corrosion free and hence offers great resistance to oils, fats, alcohols, aromatic and chlorinated hydrocarbons.
  • Smooth inner surface eliminates problems of clogging and chocking.
  • Simple, quick and firm joints with special quality ‘T’ shaped rubber ring joints. Its double sealing effect virtuallyeliminates the possibility of leakages.
  • High temperature tolerance upto 60oc. The tolerance temperature is higher when pipes are not flowing full.
  • Made form high quality PVC that offers thermal expansion of 7x105mm/m/0c resulting in high resistance to effectsand variation in environmental temperature.
  • UV stabilizers added during manufacturing process makes ‘Kantam’ SWR Systems more durable and resilient to thedamaging effects of sun-rays.
  • Injection molded fittings offers superior finish and smart looks.
  • Properly and carefully installed ‘Kantam’ SWR systems ensure upto 50 years of trouble free performance.

Jointing Instructions

  • Cut the pipe square to the required length.
  • Chamfer the edge of pipe; remove all burs, dust and dirt.
  • Apply Kantam lubricant on the external surface of the chamfered end of the pipe and on the rubber gasket, fit rubberring into the groove.
  • Check ring seal to ensure it is in position in the housing.
  • Push pipe fully into socket and mark depth in the socket.
  • Withdraw pipe until the mark is 12mm away from socket. This gap essential for thermal expansion and contraction.

Installation on walls/ concrete

  • Mark layout line on wall and fix the pipeline accordingly.
  • Apply a thin coat of PVC solvent cement followed by a light sprinkle of dry sand in slots without a cementbase, before inserting pipes and fittings.
  • Allow it to dry.
  • Repeat process while jointing PVC material to CI/AC materials.
