Why NYC contractors choose ValveAtlas steel pipe
FDNY Technical Memorandum acceptance. Every Aydin Boru sprinkler pipe is UL Listed and FM Class 1920 Approved, meeting FDNY acceptance criteria. Mill test certificate, UL certificate and FM certificate provided with every shipment for FDNY final inspection and C of F (Certificate of Fitness) ITM compliance.
Supertall Zone 2/Zone 3 high-pressure capability. ABP-SCH40-BLK Schedule 40 is rated for supertall Zone 2 and Zone 3 sprinkler systems exceeding 250 psi working pressure on One Vanderbilt, 432 Park Avenue, 111 West 57th and Central Park Tower. Mill test certificate confirms burst pressure margin for engineer-of-record high-rise submittal.
Schedule 10 lightweight economics. ABP-SCH10-BLK delivers 30 to 40 percent weight reduction versus Schedule 40, critical for Manhattan high-rise where hoist capacity and riser load are constrained. Grooved ends per AWWA C606 ship standard.
Ready-to-install grooved ends. All stock pipe ships with roll-grooved ends, eliminating contractor field grooving and reducing NYC labour costs (New York City union wage) by 15 to 25 percent on typical sprinkler riser installation.
Direct substitution for Bull Moose, Wheatland, Nucor and Victaulic VicPipe. Aydin Boru is UL/FM listed equivalent to Bull Moose Eddy-Flo, Wheatland WheatFlo, Nucor Allied and Victaulic VicPipe. FDNY accepts listed equivalent substitutions with engineer-of-record approval.
