Developed by Underwriters Laboratories (UL), the CRR value is a factoring system comparing the thinnest exposed area of a threaded schedule 40 pipe after a mating threaded coupling is attached and tightened. The UL assigned CRR value implies relative life span of the exposed area.
Zinc protection is not considered when assigning the CRR value. See zinc life chart for added value of galvanized coating
