Physical Properties of PVC Ductwork

GF Harvel PVC Duct systems perform well in many aggressive environments that are not suitable for other types of materials. Due to the unique properties of the PVC material, GF Harvel PVC Duct maintains high tensile strength and modulus over a moderate temperature range, low thermal conductivity, good electrical properties, and excellent chemical resistance to a variety of aggressive substances. Well-balanced physical properties are crucial to ensure the material selected can handle anticipated system requirements. Appropriate construction practices are determined and applied based on the physical properties of the material selected. GF Harvel PVC Duct provides construction advantages due to the material’s inherent corrosion resistance, light weight, ease of fabrication, and other labor-saving characteristics. When combined with the longevity of a properly designed system, significant cost savings can be recognized.
