Abstract: A composite pipe has a metal conduit sandwiched between inner and outer conduits of PVC/CPVC, each of which are adhesively secured to the interlaying metal conduit with a dried, solvent-free thin layer of a thermosetting bilayer adhesive which provides a bond with the metal, which bond fails in cohesive failure. Narrowly defined limits on the thickness of each conduit are found to provide a bendable composite pipe with an aluminum interlayer; and to provide a rigid non-bendable composite pipe with a steel interlayer. Making the composite pipe which meets required ASTM and NSF  test considerations requires unexpectedly critical process steps. A process for making the pipe is disclosed, as are PVC/CPVC  fittings which allow lengths of pipe to be solvent--cemented in them so as to seal the terminal ends of the pipe against infusion of fluid under pressure in the pipe, thus preventing delamination.
