1 in. Furniture Grade PVC Pipe
The Premier PVC Pipe
FORMUFIT 1" Furniture Grade PVC pipe is dimensionally identical to standard 1" Schedule 40 plumbing-grade PVC pipe which is available from most home centers or hardware stores, but designed to last much longer and outperform standard plumbing pipe.
UV Resistance
All FORMUFIT PVC pipe is UV resistant. This keeps the pipe from becoming yellow, dull and brittle. The pipe is designed for outdoor and fluorescent lighting applications and a lifetime of use.
Increased Strength
1" Furniture PVC pipe is ideal for medium sized structural jobs, where strength is critical, but size should be easy to manage. 1" Furniture Grade PVC pipe has a far different appearance than its plumbing grade counterpart pipe, as it has a shiny, bright surface that is free of printing or manufacturer’s markings. Excellent for crafts, project stands and science projects.
Dimensionally Equivalent
Furniture PVC pipe has the same outside and inside diameters as standard Schedule 40 PVC plumbing pipe. Since it uses the same sizing system as Schedule 40 PVC it is 100% compatible with standard and furniture grade PVC fittings. PVC uses a nominal sizing system, which means ‘in name only’ so all of our 1 in. Size PVC pipe fits with our 1 in. Size PVC fittings.
