With good effciency,reliable channel interface, aging resistance and corrosion, etc. High Density Polyethylene(HDPE) Solid Wall Pipe could be popularly used in Potable Water ,sewer,Mining and Gas applications.They have the following advantages:
Features:
The high impact strength of HDPE pipes compared with other plastic materials ensures a greater resistance to the rigours of pipe laying conditions.
Damage Resistance:
HDPE has low notch sensitivity, providing a high level of resistance to the effects of external damage,especially important for pipe bursting operations and others where there is a likelihood
of such damage.
Abrasion Resistance:
HDPE pipes have excellent abrasion resistance providing long life in abrasive slurry applications. In most of these applications HDPE pipe outlasts other pipe materials such as mild steel and rubber lined steel.
Chemical Resistance:
Outstanding resistance to a wide range of chemical regents allows the use of polyethylene
systems in applications such as:Tailings pipelines and chemical treatment applications used in mining operations.
Flexibility:
HDPE pipes are flexible and can be bent to a minimum bending redius of 30 times the pipe's outside diameter.This flexibility is critical in applications such as submarine pipe lines,mine subsidence and earthquake prone areas. This inhereet resiliency and flexibility allows the pipe to absorb surge pressures,vibration and reticulated and stresses caused by soil movement.
Ease of installation:
HDPE pipes are easy to install with their light weight and long lengths.Polyethylene coiled pipes are widely used in applications such as stock watering, irrigation systems,communication,gas and reticulated water mains due to rapid installation and the ease and less frequent jointing.
High flow capacity:
HDPE pipes has lower friction factors than most non-plastice materials.The surface energy characteristics of HDPE ensure that material deposition is inhibited and the smooth bore characteristic is maintained over the working life of the pipeline.
Long life:
HDPE pipes has lower friction factors than most non-plastice materials.The surface energy characteristics of HDPE ensure that material deposition is inhibited and the smooth bore characteristic is maintained over the working life of the pipeline.
Trenchless construction:
HDPE pipes offer many advantages in slip lining,pipe bursting ,dierctional drilling and microtunnelling including features such as long lengths,corrosion resistance,light weight and ease of installation with minimum disruption.
