HDPE or High-density polyethylene is made with petroleum, which is also known as polythene when it is used for manufacturing water pipes. It is highly appealing for its wide strength-to-density ratio and its higher resistance against different solvents. This material is used in the production of water pipes, which are used to supply water in a building as a municipal water system part. Furthermore, with its brilliant quality features, this HDPE material is also ideal to manufacture geomambranes, plastic bottles and plastic lumber etc. In addition, pipes made from HDPE material have resistance to acid and alkaline and are available with high flow characteristics. Therefore, according to their sizes and specifications, a pipe is provided with different range of pressure rating. Basically, size of a pipe ranges from 20 to 1600 mm and these products are available with long working life such as more than 50 years in a normal condition.
With features like high ductility, non-toxic nature, smooth yet rigid construction and fine finish, the pipes are designed with a facility to easy transport them anywhere as they are light in weight and have good flexibility. Other quality characteristics of these products include resistance to abrasion, twisting, earthquake and impact, low friction coefficient and improved capability. Both types of welding that is electro fusion welding and butt welding are applied on this product in order to provide rigid joints in a reliable manner. In addition, HDPE sockets or couplers both are useful to join these pipes mechanically to provide excellent performance.
