Hayward manufactures products from compounds of PVC, CPVC, natural PP, Glass Filled PP (GFPP), PVDF, Eastar® and Polyetherimide.
These materials are nonconductors and, as such, are immune to electrolytic and galvanic corrosion. Equally important, they contain
nothing to leach out and contaminate sensitive fluids.

Benefits of Hayward thermoplastic valves and flow control products include:

NONTOXIC
Hayward PVC and CPVC products are suitable for use with potable water and are consistent with National Sanitation Foundation (NSF).
Where applicable, Hayward products are made to ASTM and ANSI standards. See specific products in this catalog for NSF / ANSI 61
and 372 compliance.

CORROSION RESISTANCE
Hayward thermoplastic flow control products are resistant to corrosion in applications where metal valves may corrode. They are dielectric,
meaning they will not support a charge, and will remain free from the ionization and corrosion that may occur with metal valves.

EXTENDED SERVICE LIFE
Hayward thermoplastic valves will outlast most metal valves and are not affected by normal weather conditions. They will provide
years of maintenance-free service.

LOW THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY
Hayward thermoplastic products have much less thermal conductivity than metal valves so that heat gain or loss is greatly reduced.
Pipe insulation is rarely required for thermoplastic piping systems.

IMPROVED FLOW RATES
Hayward thermoplastic valves have a high flow coefficient and, as compared to metal, will not pit, rust or corrode. Their interior walls
are molded with an ultra-smooth finish that will remain smooth throughout the valve’s service life—resulting
in a more consistent flow rate over time.

HIGH TEMPERATURE SERVICE
Hayward flow control products are capable of handling corrosive chemicals at elevated temperatures—up to 240°F with
Glass Filled PP (GFPP).

EASY INSTALLATION
Hayward thermoplastic flow control products are generally 1/3 to 1/2 the weight of similar size and type metal valves.
They are simple to install and result in reduced handling, labor and installation costs.

ECONOMICS
When evaluating the economics of Hayward thermoplastic flow control products over metal equals, consider not only
the initial cost savings, but the reduced freight, lower installation and maintenance costs and the extended service life of the valves.
Hayward thermoplastic flow controls are a cost effective alternative to metal products
