Diamond Plastics PVC Pipe Plant Tour- 54" and 60" Line

This brief video provides an insight to the inner workings of PVC pipe production at Diamond Plastics. It provides the basics of the materials, production processes and quality assurance that goes into producing superior quality, sustainable Corrosion Free PVC Pipe. This video includes the new 54" and 60" line.

This was an interesting, informative and entertaining video with excellent videography and narration. Simply put, civilised countries rely on these very highly engineered pipes for potable water and sewage removal and processing along with countless industrial, manufacturing and agricultural usage. Life as we know it simply couldn't function without such underground networks. The test pressures were quite remarkable, I would never have imagined that the pipes would be subjected to such high proof pressures. It certainly instills confidence that these pipes will continue to give decades of trouble free service.

[@davidchristensen6908]

There are some people that dislike PVC. They don’t want it used on drinking water or waist water. Every pipe made leaves it’s mark on any water that flows through it. Nothing you can do about that but for longevity and ease of repair PVC has its place.

Worked at a plant and a mixer for 2 years when I was younger but they one made to to 12" pipes

[@steves2694]

I've always wondered how the die is held in place inside the extrusion tube. How to hold it in place while there's continuous flow around it, without causing a break in the circumference of the tube during extrusion. I'm guessing its held early in the molten flow stage, a blade bracket of sorts, thin enough to allow 'healing' to occur beyond die location?

[@rogerswanson9974]

It has a plug on the inside that is chained to mandrel inside and air pressure. I worked at plant outside Macon Ga. 1990

[@rickystarr10]

a section in the die assembly is known as a spider and that keeps the inner parts rigid you are right it separates and then heals back together, all the dies and puller and saw on this line was made by a Company in Mcpherson Kansas called Midwest Industries

[@rogerswanson9974]

This is true, that was the first thing I noticed when I started working there. Ironically McPherson ks is where I was born and grew up. 60s and 70s graduated 81.

Saying that they are making the largest PVC pipe in the world , I laughed . I still remember hauling a 60 inch extrusion die from Blue Mountain Pipe in BC to Toronto , Ont. because they wanted to move their large pipe line to Toronto . That was 98 .

[@rtonce]

Is pvc pipe easily recyclable? If developments plans change, can it be easily pulled up and reused elsewhere? Can it withstand desert dry and heat (+60 deg C) conditions to be used in irrigation projects? How much better would ceramic or concrete be?

[@anthonythorp7291]

I worked sewer and water in the 80's. Back then PVC was not recyclable and had no UV protection against sunlight.

[@wthomas7955]

How is the "extrusion die" held in place?

[@radharcanna]

Impressive pipes. Why were the large blue pipes referred to as ‘cast iron’?

[@markhull1366]

I picked up on that too. Either it was a typo on the script or possibly it is because those pipes conform to the same diameter specs as cast iron ones do. I know sometimes they have to make transitions from cast to pvc in the field.

[@balurammeena2968]

Great video, at 8:25 and 8:39 though when the pipe is leaving the tester why is the pipe so dusty if it was just made? That doesn't make sense to me.

[@anthonythorp7291]

It's dust from cutting the pipe to length and cutting the spiket bevel.

[@jakezgab8576]

The producer could have dialed back the background music, too loud.

[@jmowreader9555]

I wonder how they profitably transport 60-inch pipe. A flatbed trailer is 102 inches wide, so only 50 feet of that big pipe will fit on one truck. Do they insert smaller pipes into the bore of the big one?

One thing I've always wondered is they make all these pipes then stack them outside for who knows how long. We all know uv light isn't good for things, especially plastic. Wouldn't it be better to have them in a warehouse or something? How can the company guarantee the sun hasn't already damaged the pipe? Just curious, not hating or complaining.

[@Taylor-xh8uh]

They actually infuse a uv resistive chemical into the PVC so it won't be harmed by sunlight👍

Go to a sewer company which installs pipe that size. You could probably ask them for a piece. Or give the guy in the yard where they store clean up from their jobs and give him a few bucks for a hunk of what is really trash taking up space on their property. Otherwise you will pay too much.

[@anthonythorp7291]

Crazy guess, $5,000 each. 4 ft metal culvert is 3,000. I stopped at a place that made solid wall black plastic pipe and was told their biggest thickest pipe is $900 per foot of lenght. Worked sewer and water in 80' and 90's. We installed a special concrete pipe with a sprayed in liner. It was $30,000 per 20 ft pipe.
