How Is Unipipe Better Than Other Pipes?

The high pressure fittings rated at up to 70 bar have been tested to in excess of 280 bar without failure.
A unipipe aluminium system does not require any additional or special tools for assembling the pipes. It can be done using generic tools, unlike many other systems. Aluminium pipe fittings are also corrosion resistant which makes them an ideal option over black iron and galvanized metal.
