Why did I have to buy a steel pipe ?

Why is only steel used for some drainage pipes but not plastic ?

I wanted plastic they said it wasn't durable or something about erosion.

i much prefer sewer line pipe over black crappy pipe. it is smooth inside and has much thicker ends for connection. will not leak!!

If it's going to be buried, plastic of that style will just crush

Plastic can crush or deform. They use it with French drains ( shallow ) Depends really on the size and depth of the project .

Not even close to the same thing, but plastic is fine on situation

@Thrust just because I'm not a plumber, doesn't mean I can't lay pipe
