SKI became one of the first companies in India to make PVC riser pipes with SS couplings for the India Mark 2 hand pump, based on French technology. They are made for places where the water is so corrosive that metal parts fail quickly.
Why we developed PVC riser pipes with SS couplings
In many places the water is so corrosive that downhole gun-metal, mild-steel and cast-iron components corrode very quickly whenever they stay in contact with it. We developed these pipes specifically for places like these. We also add special additives to the pipe, so it resists breakage in most conditions.
Solving the weak-end problem
While standard PVC riser pipes work well in corrosive water, they tend to break at the ends under heavy load. To fix this, we developed a special PVC riser pipe with SS ends for the India Mark 2, as shown in the pictures on this page. As a result, these pipes offer much better value for money than metal pipes.
Dedicated manufacturing
We run specialised equipment, personnel and factory space dedicated exclusively to these PVC pipes with SS ends. Consequently, their quality matches, and often exceeds, that of German and French counterparts.
Where to use them
These pipes are made for the India Mark 2 hand pump, in places where the water is corrosive and metal riser pipes would not last. If you also need a stainless steel option, see our SS components page.
