Safe Water Technologies standard PVC laterals are fabricated from Schedule 80 PVC pipe. Stocked diameters include 1/2”, 3/4”, and 1-1/4”. Also available are pipe diameters of 1”, 1-1/2”, and 2”. One end is threaded MNPT. The other end is closed with a flat end plug. Generally, 3/4” diameter laterals up to 5” long receive 1/16” spacing between slots; from 5” to 8” long receive 1/8” spacing; and over 8” long receive 3/16” spacing. Laterals with 1-1/4” diameter typically receive 1/8” spacing between slots. Laterals 1-1/2” in diameter and smaller are slotted in three rows. Laterals 2” in diameter and larger have four rows of slots. To minimize pressure loss when in service, the open area of slots is engineered to be equal to or greater than 1-1/2 times the cross sectional open area of the pipe. Standard slot widths are 0.010”,
0.012”, and 0.020. Other slot widths, including 0.006”, 0.008”,
0.016”, 0.032”, and 0.125”, are available for a nominal
extra fee. Laterals are available in plastics other than Schedule 80 PVC,
including Schedule 40 PVC, SDR, CPVC, polypropylene, teflon, and PVDF.
