Many parts of the country have started using Pressure Class pipe as their standard specification for ductile iron pipe. Pressure Class pipe is thinner and uses less iron, therefore reducing the cost of the pipe. In addition, the pipe classifications are more in-line with the pressure ratings offerd in some alternate materials.  Pressure Class rated DI pipe will withstand the stated working pressure while retaining all the added benefits of being made of ductile iron.

There are other regions of the country, however, that still rely on the proven history of the heavier classes, commonly referred to as Thickness Class.  Job requirements such as depth of cover, trench type, soil conditions, etc. will help determine what pipe class will be best suited for a specific project.  Additionally, the certain product applications, such as flanged pipe, will determine the class. The minimum wall thickness needed for flange fabrication is thickness Class 53.
