No
joints means no leaks. |
| • |
HDPE
pipe actually gains strength
in lower temperatures and will
expand at
higher temperatures to avoid
breaking. |
| • |
HDPE
pipe is designed to bend to
a radius of 25 times its diameter.
This
means fewer 90 degree bends
overall, less chance for water
hammer, a
reduction in leaks and easier
installation, ideal for new
constructions. |
| • |
HDPE
pipes strength and flexibility
allows the pipe to absorb vibrations
and
stress caused by soil movements.
With its ability to be compressed
or deformed without permanent
damage, pipe has even withstood
the destructive forces of earthquakes. |
| • |
Performs
well in rocky conditions. |
| • |
HDPE
pipe can be buried at a shallow
depth. |
| • |
There
are no joints to pull apart
– a distinct advantage,
where ledge rock prohibits excavation
and very little cover is available. |
| • |
Weatherability. |
| • |
HDPE
pipe can withstand long exposure
to inclement weather conditions,
excessive sunlight and ultraviolet
rays, making it an excellent
pipe for bridge
crossings. |
| • |
Withstands
full vacuum. HDPE pipe will
not collapse, even under a full
vacuum, when the correct size
is used for a required application.
This allows
for perfect utilization as intake
piping at pumps stations. |
