um. to answer your question, i would make a cannon out of play-doh. and that was kinda stupid wording. But i thought you would get my point that they are both plastic but ABS is thicker. But i guess you intelligence level is not that high, sorrynoname wrote:Super spudder, now you're just making yourself look like more of a dumbass.That one just made me laugh and shake my head in amazement. Would you make a Play-Doh cannon, because it's thicker?super spudder wrote: yes, that is what i have been telling these people. ABS is thicker than PVC there for, it can hold more pressure.

Spudblaster15: I don't think most of the people here are talking about pressure rated ABS pipe, due to its rarity. However, if everyone here IS referring to solid wall, pressure rated ABS pipe, then yes, it is obviously superior to pressure rated PVC. It is much more shock resistant (might not BLOW when dropped) and if it does fail, it will just split open.
Personally, I would never use cellcore PVC or ABS for anything. Solid wall DWV PVC versus solid wall DWV ABS.... hmm, I haven't used either extensively (used DWV PVC on my first 3 cannons or so), so I can't really say anything.

ABS IS NOT THICKER THAN PVC!ALL SCH-40 IS THE SAME THICKNESS IN THE SAME SIZE.super spuder wrote:yes, that is what i have been telling these people.

@ spudblster15: how is that comment not relevant. he is talking about ABS pipe, and if you look at the top of this page, it is about ABS pipe, sow how is it not relevant
The stupidity in this topic is disgusting!
PVC fittings are pressure rated, fuck what mcmaster says because I know!
Pressure rated fittings have a nsf-pw!
They may not carry a specific number but they still are pressure rated.
That cannon had a DWV bell reducer.
And probably some cell core PVC.
And to the person who said they would rather have cell core pvc than abs because pvc can take some pressure

in my area, there is two kinds of fittings DWV abs, or DWV pvc (which is the stuff in the video probly) the DWV abs is thicker than the DWV pvc. for the pipe , i think it is all the same thickness, but the fittings are different thicknesses.frankrede wrote:ABS IS NOT THICKER THAN PVC!ALL SCH-40 IS THE SAME THICKNESS IN THE SAME SIZE.super spuder wrote:yes, that is what i have been telling these people.

That cannon had a DEV bell reducer.
And probably some cell core PVC.

dwv is a sligtly cheaper quality, but the same type of plastic. i would draw the line at 80 psi, just to be safe. im sure it could take much more than that.
also, another advantage of abs over pvc is it weighs half as much, yet it is still just as strong.
i know it isnt pressure rated, but as i said in another post, coke bottles arent rated, yet people pump them up to 120 psi and feel "safe".

"physics, gravity, and law enforcement are the only things that prevent me from operating at my full potential" - not sure, but i like the quote
