Pipe Solutions for Every Application

At Core & Main, we know that every project has unique requirements. That’s why we offer a complete selection of pipe products designed to perform in municipal, commercial, industrial and residential applications. From water distribution and wastewater systems to fire protection and irrigation, our nationwide inventory and expert team ensure you get the right pipe at the right time for the job.

Types of Pipe We Offer:


Ductile Iron Pipe

Ductile iron pipe is the backbone of modern water and wastewater systems. Known for its superior strength and durability, it is designed to withstand high pressure, heavy loads and long service life in demanding environments.

Applications: Potable water distribution, wastewater systems, fire protection and municipal infrastructure.

Benefits: High tensile strength, excellent corrosion resistance (with protective linings/coatings) and long-term reliability.

Why choose ductile iron? When municipalities and contractors need trusted performance for critical systems, ductile iron is the industry standard.

Custom Fabricated Ductile Iron Pipe

Standard lengths aren’t always practical. Our custom fabricated ductile iron pipe is engineered to meet specialized project requirements from treatment plants to unique system layouts.

Applications: Water treatment facilities, complex plant systems, specialized infrastructure projects

Benefits: Built-to-spec with custom linings, coatings and end connections, eliminating on-site modifications.

Why choose Custom Fabricated Ductile Iron Pipe? When your project demands precision and customization, fabricated ductile iron ensures a perfect fit.

PVC Pipe

Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) pipe is one of the most widely used piping solutions thanks to its versatility and cost-effectiveness. It is lightweight, easy to install and resistant to a wide variety of chemicals, making it an excellent choice for water, sewer and drainage projects.

Applications: Potable water service lines, sanitary sewer systems, storm drainage and irrigation.

Benefits: Lightweight for faster installation, corrosion resistant and smooth interior walls for improved flow efficiency.

Why choose PVC? Contractors value PVC pipe for its low installed cost, durability and long service life in above-ground and underground systems.

HDPE Pipe

High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) pipe is engineered for flexibility and toughness in the most challenging conditions. Its ability to withstand ground movement and its fusion-welded joints make it a top choice for trenchless installation methods such as directional drilling or slip-lining.

Applications: Water distribution, industrial systems, energy, landfill and trenchless construction projects.

Benefits: Exceptional corrosion resistance, leak-free joints through heat fusion and long service life even in aggressive soil conditions.

Why choose HDPE? When durability and flexibility are required, HDPE provides a reliable low-maintenance solution with excellent total cost of ownership.

Corrugated HDPE Pipe

Corrugated HDPE pipe is designed for stormwater and gravity-fed systems where flow management is critical. Its lightweight design makes it easier to install while maintaining high performance.

Applications: Storm drains, culverts, gravity-flow drainage, agricultural irrigation.

Benefits: Lightweight for easier handling, strong structural integrity and resistant to abrasion and chemicals.

Why choose Corrugated HDPE? For cost-effective stormwater or agricultural drainage, corrugated HDPE offers both durability and ease of installation.

Copper Pipe

Copper pipe is a long-standing choice in the waterworks industry, valued for its reliability and proven performance in service applications. With multiple grades available, it adapts to a wide range of residential and commercial needs.

Applications: Service lines, small-diameter water distribution, plumbing and municipal projects.

Benefits: Naturally corrosion-resistant, easy to install and trusted for potable water systems.

Why choose Copper? For projects where dependability and proven safety matter, copper delivers a time-tested solution.
