• Installation  is quite easier, saving in handling and Transportation Costs 
• Savings in pumping Costs due to less  Frictional  loss
• More discharge of Water, Better flow 30 % more flow than GI Pipe
• Longer life of the Pipe. Low maintenance and replacement costs
• Reduced installation Cost. Ensure speedy implementation of the scheme
• Considerably reduced cost due to Saving in Material cost and Installation cost both
• Uniform flow of Water throughout, no danger of contamination due to incrustations.

	G. I. Pipes	C.I. Pipes	Asbestos Cement Pressure Pipes	Rigid PVC Pipes
Weight	Heavy	Heavy	Lighter Than CI But heavier Then PVC	Light Pipe Weighs 1/6th of GI Pipe & 1/5th  of CI
Inside bore	Rough	Rough	Smooth	Mirror like Smooth
Co-efficient of flow rate	100, decrease Over the Period of use	100 for New Pipe 40-45 after 5 to 10 Years	140	150 , remains constant throughout its life.
Resistance to corrosion	Pipes are Susceptible to quality of water aggressive soil conditions	Pipes are Susceptible to quality of water aggressive soil conditions	Good	Good resistance to strong acid also alkalizes or salt men solutions
