Plastic Coated Copper Tube is manufactured in a variety of options for use when copper tube is to be buried
or used in a potentially aggressive environment. Certain soils and building materials can contain chemicals that are
potentially corrosive to plain copper tube, requiring it to be protected to ensure longevity in service. Our plastic-coated
copper tube eliminates the need for on-site tape wrapping or sleeving, creating a savings on labor and ensuring a
professional looking installation.
