Piping Materials and Cost Ratios

Installation cost ratios of common piping materials as

• Alloy 20
• Carbon steel (reference = 1)
• CPVC
• FEP lined steel
• Stainless steel 316L
• FRP - Vinyl ester
• FRP - Epoxy
• FRP - Polyester
• Glass lined steel
• Hastelloy
• Monel
• Nickel
• Polypropylene lined steel
• PTFE lined FRP
• PTFE lined steel
• PTFE lined 304L Stainless steel
• PVC
• PVDF
• Rubber lined carbon steel
• Saran lined steel
• Stainless steel 304L
• Titanium
• Zirconium

related to pipes in carbon steel are indicated in the chart below:

• PTFE - PolyTetraFluoroEthylene
• FRP - fibreglass
• PVDF - PolyVinyliDene Fluoride
• FEP - Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene

Installed cost ratios are based on a 100 m (400 ft) DN 50 (2") pipe installation.
