Key Products/TechnologiesKeyProducts/Technologies
PB (Polybutylene) Piping System: Piping materials manufactured with advanced PB technology and materials, characterized by excellent durability, economic feasibility, and workability. The system undergoes precise quality control with a tolerance within ±0.1mm according to Push-fit standards, ensuring perfect connection of pipe, sleeve, O-ring, washer, and grab ring connector components. Applicable in various fields including water supply, hot water, heating, industrial, and agricultural piping, offering easy installation and maintenance with the double-pipe method.PB(Polybutylene)PipingSystem:PipingmaterialsmanufacturedwithadvancedPBtechnologyandmaterials,characterizedbyexcellentdurability,economicfeasibility,andworkability.Thesystemundergoesprecisequalitycontrolwithatolerancewithin±0.1mmaccordingtoPush-fitstandards,ensuringperfectconnectionofpipe,sleeve,O-ring,washer,andgrabringconnectorcomponents.Applicableinvariousfieldsincludingwatersupply,hotwater,heating,industrial,andagriculturalpiping,offeringeasyinstallationandmaintenancewiththedouble-pipemethod.
CPVC (Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride) Piping System: Heat-resistant rigid vinyl chloride pipes with enhanced heat resistance, pressure resistance, impact resistance, mechanical strength, and corrosion resistance through chlorination. TKG Aikang has contributed to the innovative transition in the domestic fire-fighting sprinkler piping material market by successfully producing CPVC piping systems using in-house technology. Key advantages include corrosion resistance, hygiene, self-extinguishing function in fire, low friction loss, reduction of heat loss and greenhouse gases, and construction and cost efficiency.CPVC(ChlorinatedPolyvinylChloride)PipingSystem:Heat-resistantrigidvinylchloridepipeswithenhancedheatresistance,pressureresistance,impactresistance,mechanicalstrength,andcorrosionresistancethroughchlorination.TKGAikanghascontributedtotheinnovativetransitioninthedomesticfire-fightingsprinklerpipingmaterialmarketbysuccessfullyproducingCPVCpipingsystemsusingin-housetechnology.Keyadvantagesincludecorrosionresistance,hygiene,self-extinguishingfunctioninfire,lowfrictionloss,reductionofheatlossandgreenhousegases,andconstructionandcostefficiency.
Firefighting Mechanical Equipment (Sprinkler Heads, Water Flow Control Valves, Flexible Sprinkler Pipes): Sprinkler heads and water flow control valves are developed through extensive testing and research from the design stage.
