I have a choice to make on pipe material. ABS or PVC?? for drain lines in a RV.
This "RV" had been a F-700 truck. It rides much better tnow that it has a air bag rear suspension but it is still a moving vehicle
that hits potholes every now and then.
I see that all of the OEM that build RVs and campers use ABS. is it more vibration resistant than PVC ?
