'''Plastic pipe''' is a tubular section, or hollow cylinder, made of [[plastic]]. It is usually, but not necessarily, of circular cross-section, used mainly to convey substances which can flow—liquids and gases (fluids), slurries, powders and masses of small solids. It can also be used for structural applications; hollow [[Pipe (fluid conveyance)|pipes]] are far stiffer per unit weight than solid members.
