When asbestos cement pipe was first developed by reinforcing concrete with asbestos, the benefits outweigh the risks for many manufacturers. Composed of basic raw materials such as asbestos fiber, Portland cement and silica sand, asbestos cement pipe was highly resistant to corrosion, wear, chemical and biological reaction and extremes of temperature and moisture.
If asbestos fibres are in a stable material such as bonded in asbestos-cement sheeting such as fibro and in good condition they pose little health risk. However where fibro or other bonded asbestos sheeting is broken, damaged or mishandled fibres can become loose and airborne posing a risk to health. Disturbing or removing it unsafely can create a hazard.The asbestos-cement combination also created a pipe relatively light in weight compared to metallic pipe materials.
