JT-15001 Low-Pressure Irrigation PVC-U Pipe
Product Information:
The low-pressure irrigation PVC-U pipe is made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC) resin with organic tin stabilizers. The production process includes batching, high-speed hot mixing, cold mixing, quantitative feeding, extrusion, vacuum cooling, secondary spray cooling, traction, fixed-length cutting, flipping, stacking, and flaring. The pipe is typically gray in color and comes in 6-meter lengths, though length can be adjusted based on mutual agreement.
Product Features:
Excellent Mechanical Properties: The PVC agricultural irrigation pipe has great rigidity and strong resistance to external forces, making it suitable for underground water transportation without being easily damaged by external pressure.
Smooth Inner Walls: The pipe has low fluid resistance due to its smooth inner walls. It does not rust, accumulate deposits, or clog easily, ensuring efficient water delivery.
Corrosion Resistance: With good corrosion resistance and stability, it can transport water mixed with fertilizers without being corroded, while preserving the nutrients in the fertilizers to support crop growth.
Anti-Aging Properties: The pipe is formulated with antioxidants and light stabilizers, giving it excellent anti-aging performance. Whether exposed to long-term sunlight or buried underground, it maintains its performance. It has a lifespan of 20 to 50 years.
Comprehensive Fittings: A full range of pipe fittings and stable sizing ensure easy installation and prevent water leakage caused by large tolerance differences.
Stable and Safe: The pipe maintains water quality, ensuring that it doesn’t affect crops, making it ideal for producing non-toxic, pollution-free agricultural products.
Lightweight: The pipe is lightweight, making transportation, installation, and use convenient.
Application Fields:
The PVC-U low-pressure irrigation pipes are suitable for agricultural applications, such as sprinkler irrigation, micro-irrigation, canal seepage prevention, and low-pressure pipeline transportation.
Installation Instructions:
PVC-U pipes and fittings used for irrigation can be connected in two main ways: adhesive bonding and rubber ring connections. Adhesive bonding is more commonly used, and when done correctly, the connection strength exceeds the pipe strength.
I. Adhesive Bonding Method:
Clean the inner wall of the pipe fitting socket and both ends of the straight pipe, ensuring they are free from moisture and oil.
Measure the length of the straight pipe that needs to be inserted into the fitting socket, and mark the insertion depth.
Apply a thin layer of adhesive evenly on both the inner wall of the fitting socket and the insertion end of the straight pipe.
Insert the straight pipe into the socket, reaching the marked depth, and hold it for 15 minutes.
II. Flared Socket Connection Method:
Clean the inner wall of the flared socket and the outer wall of the insertion part of the straight pipe.
Measure the length of the flared section and mark the insertion length on the straight pipe (slightly shorter than the measured length).
Place the sealing ring in the groove of the flared end (with the sloped side of the ring facing outward). The insertion end of the straight pipe should have a 15° chamfer for easy insertion.
Align the insertion end of the straight pipe with the flared socket and insert it until it reaches the marked line.
This product provides a reliable, durable, and easy-to-install solution for various agricultural irrigation needs.

Application Scenarios:
The JT-15001 Low-Pressure Irrigation PVC-U Pipe is primarily used in agricultural irrigation, suitable for sprinkler irrigation, micro-irrigation, canal seepage prevention, and low-pressure water pipeline transport. Its high-efficiency water transport capacity, corrosion resistance, and long service life make it especially ideal for regions with arid climates and saline-alkaline soils, such as Latin America, Arab countries, and Africa. These regions often face water scarcity and soil degradation issues, so implementing an efficient and stable low-pressure irrigation pipeline system can help enhance irrigation efficiency, reduce water waste, and partially mitigate soil salinization.
Target Customer Groups:
Agricultural Enterprises: Large-scale plantation owners, agricultural production cooperatives, and farms are the primary target customers. These businesses focus on the stability and cost-effectiveness of irrigation systems, particularly those seeking to improve crop yields and irrigation water quality.
Irrigation Equipment Distributors: Local agents and distributors providing agricultural irrigation equipment and technical services are key partners for promoting this product.
Government and Non-Governmental Organizations: These organizations, which promote sustainable agricultural development projects, may fund or support the renovation and construction of local irrigation facilities, making them suitable customers for large-scale purchases or support of modern irrigation systems.
Small- and Medium-Sized Farmers: Farmers who need durable and affordable irrigation pipes, especially in areas affected by climate change, where there is a need to improve irrigation technology.
Business Opportunities and Market Potential:
Latin American Market:
- Market Characteristics: Countries such as Brazil, Argentina, and Chile have vast agricultural lands, and certain regions experience drought year-round, leading to high demand for water-saving irrigation technologies. Governments in these countries have provided a series of policy supports to promote agricultural modernization.
- Market Potential: These countries have relatively high levels of agricultural mechanization, but modern irrigation infrastructure is still lacking, especially among small farmers and cooperatives. Therefore, promoting low-cost, high-efficiency PVC-U irrigation pipes could be beneficial.
Arab Countries Market:
- Market Characteristics: Arab countries are characterized by dry climates, severe desertification, and water scarcity. Agricultural water use efficiency needs to be improved urgently. Through the promotion of micro-irrigation and other efficient water-saving irrigation technologies, PVC-U pipes will play an important role.
- Market Potential: Governments are heavily promoting agricultural water-saving projects and modern agricultural development, especially in countries like Saudi Arabia and the UAE, where large-scale agricultural projects are introducing high-efficiency irrigation technologies. Thus, irrigation pipelines have huge application prospects.
African Market:
- Market Characteristics: Most African regions have underdeveloped agricultural infrastructure, but with recent efforts by governments and international organizations to promote agricultural modernization and sustainable development, demand for low-cost, efficient irrigation pipelines is surging.
- Market Potential: The African market is a high-potential growth market, especially in large agricultural countries such as Ethiopia and Kenya. The use of PVC-U pipes can significantly enhance agricultural productivity and water use efficiency.
Recommendations for Distributors:
Industry Experience: Distributors with experience in agricultural irrigation and equipment installation can quickly expand the market and provide professional technical support.
Local Networks: Distributors should have good relationships with local agricultural businesses, cooperatives, and government departments to ensure effective product promotion.
Logistics and Storage Capabilities: Given the need for stable supply in irrigation systems, distributors should have solid logistics and storage management capabilities.
After-Sales Support: Distributors who can provide technical guidance, pipe installation, and maintenance services will be more likely to establish long-term partnerships.
Price Competitiveness: When targeting small farmers, distributors need to have some price negotiation space to ensure the product maintains a cost-effective advantage.
Key Customer Targets:
- Medium to Large Agricultural Companies: Enterprises with large-scale agricultural production needs and the financial capacity to invest in modern irrigation systems.
- Local Governments and Agricultural Promotion Organizations: These organizations are often key drivers of agricultural infrastructure development and can provide distributors with stable purchasing demand.
- Farmer Cooperatives: Groups engaged in farmland renovation and irrigation system upgrades through cooperatives.
