Polyethylene pipe
Polyethylene Pipe (PE Pipe or HDPE Pipe) is made from ethylene, which can be derived from either crude oil or natural gas. PE pipe (polyethylene Pipe) is extremely strong, durable, flexible, corrosion free and chemical resistant. These features make it perfect for a variety of underground conditions and help it last up to 100 years. The smooth walls allow for less friction, which increase
flow through the same diameter as that of other pipes.
PE Pipe When installed, the pipe is joined by a heat fusion process, which prevents leakage. By using PE pipe, municipalities save a vast amount of water and reduce repair rates. This translates into a significant cost savings for the life of the pipe.
PE pipe can carry potable water, wastewater, chemicals, hazardous wastes and compressed gases. PE is the preferred piping material for natural gas distribution because there is no tolerance for leaks and no worries about corrosion.
