Anyone got any thoughts comments about this product/seller.
Considering Bunnings sell the same @ $67 there is something smelly about this.
Could it ...would it be Chinese plastic :oo: or something less sinister, I'll be over in Adel and will already have a load of 100mm on the ute roof racks so dont want to be too nosey... who me roflmao:
DWV pipe needs to be certified for use and this pipe may be out of tolerance and may not be able to be used in water plumbing applications. Still perfectly adequate for DC use.
About 10 years ago pipe on line had some for a similar price - turned out the inside of the ducting was dimpled.
Unsure how much it would affect the flow but probably not much especially on 6".
Just watch out if it is out of tolerance. It's not so bad if it's slightly smaller but unusable if its slightly bigger.
i bought a 6m length of the 150mm pipe yesterday. The guy serving me was friendly and happy to cut the pipe into 2m lengths (the maximum I can fit in my car) without charging extra. I asked whether it was a special item/order and he said no, they generally stock it.
As far as I can see the pipe is fine. The only "defect" I noticed was a dent near one end (nothing big enough to affect function). I test-fitted it into a 150mm Holman coupler I bought from Bunnings and it seemed to be good: not too tight, not too loose.
I photographed the label and markings in case they mean something to someone:

another bit of info for Adelaidians.
while (still) setting up my system I was caught in a tight spot and needed 2 piece urgently, down to local Reece plumbing got 2 x 150mm DWV 88* elbows and paid $30 each...:oo:.
this week was in Adelaide and visited Samios plumbing Melrose park (granted they gave me trade price supposedly) but same item was $13.75 just a look out for decent pricing locally and then Bob's friends have 5f. DWV Plain Bend FF 88° 150mm $15.53 + GST + freight (maybe)
