        Is there any type of pipe that would be stronger than PVC, (it breaks to often) but not corrode like galvanized pipe ( water is high in mineral content and eats galvanized pipe) for use in my well? It’s about 130 feet down to where the pump is.

          you can use poly pipe it is the type that is buried underground. it comes in rolls. i would suggest a minimum of 160 psi& be sure to use a torque arrester if you have a submersible pump.

            YES 160 PSI WITH BRASS FITTINGS N 2 S.S CLAMPS ON EACH FITTING HAVE FUN
