JM Eagle’s Blue Brute C900 PVC Pipe with IPS (Iron Pipe Size) Bell End offers a lightweight, economical solution for low-to-moderate pressure water and sewer systems. Designed for compatibility with standard IPS fittings, this pipe is ideal for potable water distribution, gravity sewers, and infrastructure projects where corrosion resistance and long-term reliability are critical. Available in blue, green, purple, or white, it combines AWWA compliance with effortless installation.
Key Features & Benefits
✅ IPS Bell End Standardization
- Seamlessly integrates with IPS fittings, valves, and existing infrastructure for simplified installations.
- Leak-resistant joints ensure reliability in systems requiring 125 PSI (DR32.5) pressure capacity.
✅ Zero-Corrosion Performance
- Built to withstand tuberculation, galvanic corrosion, and harsh soil conditions without linings, coatings, or cathodic protection.
- Smooth interior (C=150 flow coefficient) maintains hydraulic efficiency, reducing pumping costs and pipe-sizing requirements.
✅ Lightweight & Easy to Install
- 20-foot laying lengths (+/-1") minimize joints and accelerate installation timelines.
- Field-cut and bevel with basic tools—no specialized machinery needed.
✅ Certified Safe for Potable Water
- ANSI/NSF 61-certified, compliant with UL 1285, CSA B137.3, and ASTM D1784 (Cell Class 12454).
Technical Specifications
