Default pvc charge pipes?

has anyone out there used pvc piping as charge pipes? i have a lot laying around and was wondering if i can make my cold pipe out of pvc. i heard that they might explode under the pressure but on the pipe it says it can hold up to 280 psi.... ill only be running 10psi MAX.

They will work if you glue them up good enough to hold up the boost.
but they don`t deal with radiant heat very well and if it melt(or is it ABs pipings), fumes came out and ------- kill you
