    Hi,
    I want to move a water trough that has a 1/2 inch pipe going in. I’m not sure if it’s heavy or normal. I need to get another 70m or so but just wondering if normal gauge would do or would I need heavy?

    Get the correct pipe for where you intend to lay it. Heavy Gauge if there is going to be any traffic across it

    Use a pmac joiner which can have either heavy or standard gauge inserts

    Isn’t it Red print on pipe for heavy gauge and blue print for regular gauge.

    Can you check the print on tue existing pipe.
