INTRODUCTION
AL-AMAL Company for Plastic Pipes and Fittings (AL-SHARIF) was formed in 1995 with the aim of
developing a professional UPVC/CPVC/HDPE/PP-R/PP-H pipes and fittings industry.
Since the company has bought AL-AMAL’s plastic pipes factories with their well known and trusted
brand name and sign, AL-AMAL Co. is considered one of the largest leading companies in the plastic
pipes and fittings field in the Middle East.
Since its foundation, AL-AMAL has a steady growth with high quality standards to fulfill the require-
ments of its customers specially for UPVC/ CPVC/HDPE/PP-R/PP-H pipes with more than 42000 Tons
per year, Fittings with more than 8000 Tons per year, and it already started in 1st. September 2008
production of PP-R with capacity more than 3000 Tons pipes per year, and 1200 Tons of fittings per
year, AL-AMAL’s Pipes and Fittings are produced according to DIN, BS, ASTM, ISO and Egyptian
standards demand.
There is also the facility of manufacturing products with special specifications according to cus-
tomer requirements.
As AL-AMAL’s target is to become the major producer in the field of plastic pipes and fittings, a
strategic program has been carried out to improve the quality standards and increase the quality
and variation of production by having its plant in the 10th of Ramadan City, equipped with new in-
jection moulding machines and new moulds with advanced automated tooling and up-to date know
how which permit high capacity of pipes and fittings with exceptionally high consistency in terms of
dimensional accuracy, mechanical strength and surface finish.
AL-AMAL UPVC/CPVC/PP-R/HDPE/PP-H Pipes (AL-SHARIF) are well accepted and widely used in
domestic water system, warming, cooling, all types of industrial process pipe works, water distribu-
tion and water treatment as well as irrigation systems.
A new range for the production of all systems required for AL-AMAL’s customers has been taken
into consideration in its near expanding plans.
The most highly advantage is the well equipped laboratory which is established according to the
best international standards to control raw materials, final products and also for the research which
is one of the important targets of AL-AMAL to update and develop its products.
Customers can depends completely on AL-AMAL and consider it their partner in the business.

THE ADVANTAGES OF UPVC PIPES SYSTEM
The group of materials known as unplasticized PVC is one of the most important developments of
the last few decades as it reduces the cost and improves the reliability of pipeline installations. The
properties can be varied by small additions of modifying agents which have definite and controlled
mechanical properties.They can be fabricated to close dimensional tolerances, light without being
weak. . Rigid without being brittle.
Furthermore, these materials can be converted into pipes and fittings by vary direct processes of
extrusion or injection moulding even though these processes demand heavy elaborate machinery
and very precise process.
The principal reason for the great economy of AL SHARIF pipes is not. So much their cost per meter
as delivered to site but rather the dramatic reduction in installation costs which can be achieved
by intelligent exploitation of their light weight. Higher availability in longer lengths. Their easy of
jointing and their immunity from corrosion. These characteristics are of even greater importance
to engineers now that the need to carry out water supply and sewerage schemes. Industrial plant
installation . etc. at minimum cost and maximum reliability.
NON – CORROSION
UPVC pipes resist corrosion caused by acid, alkalis, Salts, oils, moisture and the media inside and
outside the pipe.
NON – TOXIC
UPVC pipes are entirely non-toxic. It will not affect the taste, Smell or colour of water or liquid nor
react with any liquid to cause precipitation.
LOW FLOW LOSSES

UPVC pipes have a mirror – smooth surface which minimize resistance and impede the build – up of
deposits and corrosive scales.
MECHANICAL STRENGTH
UPVC pipes have great tensile strength yet they are flexible enough to with stand displacements in
the pipe line. They will not dent or flatten under pressure.
LIGHT WEIGHT
UPVC pipes are incredibly light. Their specific weight is one fifth of steel pipe this cuts down trans-
portation costs and facilitates the installation of pipe and reduces its cost.
EASY OF INSTALLATION
UPVC pipes are quick and easy to install, with a complete range of fittings using solvent cement or
rubber joints are leakproof UPVC pipes can be cut easily for installation.
EASY OF MAINTENANCE
UPVC pipes can be quickly repaired with a minimum of complication or cost.
6
FIRE PROOF
UPVC pipes will not support combustion. In the event of fire, flames are unable to travel along the
pipe. It is self extinguishing.
INSULATOR
UPVC pipes are ideal for electric conduits. Because UPVC itself is an integral insulator, it eliminates
the possibility of electrolytic corrosion which so often destroys underground piping.
PROVEN EXPERIENCE
UPVC pipes have been used worldwide for 45 years in all climates.The experience of its many users
have proved it is supreme quality, economy ease of installation, and its non – corrosive qualities.

TRANSPORT, STORAGE AND HANDLING
PIPES
On trucks the 6 or long pipes must be fully supported on the loading area. Avoid loading at the same
time with sharp objects. Pipes should not be thrown or dragged along the ground.
Pipes should be given adequate support at all times. Pipes should not be stacked in large piles,
especially in warm temperature conditions as the lower layers may distort, resulting in difficulties in
jointing and pipe alignment. Any pipe with ends prepared for jointing (sockets and spigot joints, A
joints, etc.) should be stacked in layers with sockets placed at alternate ends of the stacks and with
the sockets protruding to avoid unstable stacks and the possibility of imparting a permanent set to
the pipes.
For long –term storage, pipe racks should provide continuous support, but if this is not possible
timber of at least 3 in. (75mm) bearing width at spacing not greater than 3 ft.(915mm) centers for pipe
sizes 160mm and above, should be placed beneath the pipes and at 6 ft. (1.8m) centres at the side,
if the stacks are rectangular. These spacing apply to pipe size 160 mm and above. Closer supports
will be required for sizes below 160mm in such pipe racks. Pipes may be stored not more than seven
layers, or 6 ft.(1.8m) high, whichever is the lesser. But if different classes of pipe are kept in the same
racks, than the thickness classes of largest diameter must always be placed at the bottom.
When loading pipes on to vehicles, care must be taken to avoid their coming into contact with any
sharp corners such as cope irons, loose nail-heads, etc. as pipes may be damaged by being rubbed
against these during transit. Whilst in transit . pipes shall be well secured over their entire length and
not allowed to project unsecured over the tailboard of the lorry pipes may be off-loaded from lorries
by rolling them gently down timbers, care being take to ensure that pipes do not fall one upon an-
other, nor on to any hard or uneven surfaces.

Rubber sealing rings should not be stored in the open period, nor should they be exposed to sun-
light.
It is recommended not to keep rubber sealing rings on stock for too long time it cannot be avoided
to keep them in stock for several years, they should be kept free of tension in a cool place without
radiation of light, if possible. In rooms where no electrical equipment is in operation.
Rubber sealing rings should not come into contact with chemicals, grease or fuels.
18
FITTINGS
Store fittings in their original packaging. If they must be removed from their boxes, separate them by
geometric type and size. Never combine your plastic fitting inventory with metallic materials. Avoid
storing Fittings near an open flame or source of extreme heat.

EXPANSION AND CONTRACTION
All piping products expand and contract with changes in temperature. Linear expansion and contrac-
tion of any pipe on the longitudinal axis relates to the coefficient of thermal expansion for the specific
material used in the manufacturing of the product. Variation in pipe length due to thermal expansion
or contraction depends on the coefficient of thermal expansion and the variation in temperature ( T).
It should be noted that change in pipe diameter or wall thickness with piping material properties re-
maining constant does effect a change in rates of thermal expansion or contraction.
Approximate coefficients of thermal expansion for different pipe materials are presented below. Ex-
pansion and contraction of PVC piping in response to change in temperature will vary slightly with
changes in PVC compounds. However, these coefficients can be considered reasonably accurate.

SOLVENT WELDING UPVC PIPES AND FITTINGS
CUTTING
Pipe must be squarely cut to allow for the proper in-
terfacing of the pipe end and the fitting socket bot-
tom. This can be accomplished with a miter box saw.
DEBURRING
Use file to remove burrs from the end of pipe. A slight
chamfer about 15° should be added to the end to per-
mit easier insertion of the pipe into the fitting. Failure
to chamfer the edge of the pipe may remove cement
from the socket, causing the joint to leak.
INSPECTION AND CLEANING

Visually inspect the inside of the pipe and fitting
sockets and remove all dirt, grease or moisture with
a clean dry rag. Measure the fitting socket depth and
mark this distance on the pipe O.D. Clean the surface
of the pipe and fitting socket by using a cleaner.

25
APPLICATION OF SOLVENT CEMENT
Apply the solvent cement evenly and quickly around
the outside of the pipe at a width a little greater than
the depth of the fitting socket. Apply a light coat of
cement evenly around the inside of the fitting socket.
JOINT ASSEMBLY
Immediately insert the pipe into the socket up to the
entry mark, align pipe and socket, hold in position for
a few seconds.
CLEAN UP
Remove all excess cement from around the pipe and
fitting with a dry cotton rag. This must be done while
the cement is still soft.
AFTER JOINTING
Joints should not be moved or distributed for 10-15
minutes then the jointed pipe may be handled with
care allow 4 hours if the jointed pipe lengths are to
be laid in a trench.
TESTING
Allow 8 hours to elapse before applying working
pressure or 24 hours for tests pressure with pipe
sizes up to 50 mm, it is possible to reduce this time.
Allow 1 hour for each 3.5 atmospheres of pressure.

Brushes must be clean and dry before commencing solvent welding Brushes must be thoroughly
cleaned after use by washing out in cleaning fluid.
Do not dilute solvent adhesive with cleaning fluid.
Use Solvent adhesive and cleaning fluid in a well ventilated area.

Keep away from naked flames and do not smoke. Always replace lids of containers, in any event,
attention is drawn to the instructions printed on the containers.
When laying continues runs of pipe, joints may be made quicker than the setting times advised
above. The joint will not be disturbed with long lengths, providing that the pipe is not twisted or the
previously made joint lifted out of place.
