De-greased copper pipes are particularly important in applications where cleanliness and the absence of contaminants are critical, such as in medical pipeline installations and equipment, semiconductor manufacturing, and food processing industries.
Copper pipes are commonly used in plumbing and other applications due to their excellent corrosion resistance and heat conductivity. However, during the manufacturing or handling of copper pipes, they may come into contact with oils or greases, which can be detrimental to their performance in certain applications
Removing grease and oil residues ensures that the copper pipe can function effectively and maintain the purity of the substances it carries.
Degreased copper pipe must meet the highest of levels conforming to the following with BS EN 13348, BS EN 1057, BS 2871 Part 1 Table X, EN 7396, and HTM 02-01.
