Unique Features:

EN 1057 R220 Copper Pipe is made from high-purity copper (C12200), offering excellent thermal and electrical conductivity. This makes it an ideal choice for applications where heat or electrical transfer is critical, such as in HVAC and refrigeration systems. The R220 grade of copper provides a balance of mechanical strength and flexibility, allowing the pipe to be easily bent without compromising its durability or integrity. The pipe’s low oxygen content (0.02% max) ensures superior resistance to oxidation and corrosion, making it particularly well-suited for long-term use in potable water and gas systems. Its malleability makes it easy to install and adapt to complex system layouts without the need for additional fittings.
