Copper Pipe Technical Specs

Standards and Material Quality
Copper pipes meet the BS EN 1057 standards, made from phosphorus de-oxidised copper (Cu-DHP or CW024A). This ensures top-quality and reliability. A minimum copper content of 99.90% guarantees the pipes' exceptional purity and enhances their performance in plumbing systems.

Durability and Compatibility
The carefully controlled phosphorus content increases the pipes' durability and ensures they work well with a variety of fittings. This adaptability improves the pipes' overall usefulness in diverse plumbing applications.

Physical Properties
With a melting point of 1083°C and a density of 8.9 gm/cc, these copper pipes are built to withstand high temperatures and maintain their structural integrity in challenging conditions.

Flexibility and Strength
Categorized as 'Half Hard,' the pipes strike an ideal balance between being flexible enough for easy installation and strong enough for prolonged durability. The 'Half Hard' designation indicates that the copper has been partially work-hardened, making it both resilient and malleable for a broad spectrum of plumbing projects.

Copper Pipe Sizes

Brooks provides copper pipes in standard Irish sizes, suitable for a variety of plumbing needs in Ireland where the Imperial system is still in use. These sizes include:

• 1/2" Copper Pipe, 5.5M Length
• 3/4" Copper Pipe, 5.5M Length
• 1" Copper Pipe, 5.5M Length

Here's a quick comparison between Irish and British sizes for clarity:

Irish Size (Imperial)	Internal Diameter (ID)	Approximate Outside Diameter (OD) with Thickness
1/2"	12.7 mm	14.7 mm (Not exactly 15 mm)
3/4"	19.05 mm	21 mm (Not exactly 22 mm)

Ireland uses the internal diameter for sizing, which contrasts with the metric system's focus on the external diameter. This difference is crucial for plumbing compatibility and often requires adapters when integrating Irish Imperial with British Metric pipes. Brooks' selection ensures that customers receive the correct sizing for their specific plumbing systems in Ireland.
