There are mainly the following types of copper pipe:
First, according to the material classification
1. Purple copper tube
- Characteristics: It has good electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance. Purple copper tube is soft, easy to process molding, widely used in refrigeration, HVAC, water supply and drainage and other fields.
- Uses: Commonly used in air conditioning, refrigerators and other refrigeration equipment, as well as waterways, gas pipes and other piping systems.
2. brass tube
- Characteristics: High strength and corrosion resistance, but also has a good thermal and electrical conductivity. Brass tube is yellow in color and usually composed of copper and zinc.
- Uses: Mainly used in the manufacture of valves, fittings, radiators and other products.
Second, according to the production process classification
1. drawn copper tube
- Characteristics: Produced through the stretching process, high dimensional accuracy, smooth surface. The wall thickness of drawn copper tube is uniform, which can meet the requirements of high-precision use.
- Uses: Widely used in electronics, electrical appliances, instrumentation and other fields.
2. rolled copper tube
- Characteristics: Adopting rolling process to produce, high production efficiency and low cost. The size range of rolled copper tube is large, which can meet the needs of different users.
- Uses: commonly used in construction, machinery, chemical industry and other fields.
C. Classification according to use
1. air-conditioning copper tube
- Characteristics: Specially used for air-conditioning system connection pipe, with good thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance. The size and specification of air-conditioning copper tube are usually determined according to the power and model of the air-conditioner.
- Uses: Indispensable in air conditioning installation and maintenance.
2. Watercourse Copper Pipes- Characteristics: Used in water supply and drainage systems, with good corrosion resistance and sealing. Watercourse copper pipes can withstand high pressure and are not prone to leakage.
- Uses: Widely used in domestic, commercial and industrial buildings.
3. Medical Copper Tube
- Characteristics: In line with medical standards, non-toxic, odorless and non-polluting. Medical copper tubes are usually used in the manufacture of medical devices and equipment, such as surgical instruments, dental equipment, etc. Uses: Provide safe and reliable products for the medical industry.
- Use: To provide safe and reliable materials for the medical industry.
In short, there are many types of copper tubes, and different types of copper tubes have different characteristics and uses. When choosing copper pipe, you need to choose according to the specific needs of use and environment.
