HDPE pipe and fittings are quickly becoming the material of choice for engineers, contractors and customers in a variety of industry applications including municipal, industrial, energy, geothermal, marine, mining, landfill, HVAC, gas, oil, mining and agricultural applications.
High density polyethylene pipes are strong, durable, flexible and lightweight. When fused together, HDPE offers a zero leakage rate due to the seamless nature of the piping system. HDPE pipe is non-toxic, corrosion and chemical resistant, has a long service life and is suitable for trenchless installation methods, therefore providing a more environmentally sustainable footprint.
HDPE Mining Tailing Pipe
HDPE pipe is easier to handle and install than other pipe materials, resulting in significant cost advantages and return on investment. As HDPE is approximately one-eighth the density of steel, there is no need for heavy lifting equipment during installation. the flexibility of HDPE allows bending without the need for additional fittings and can be easily installed in continuous lengths over uneven terrain.
HDPE is particularly suitable for trenchless applications because of its seamless functionality and flexibility, allowing bending radii of 20 to 25 times the outer diameter of the pipe. HDPE is commonly used for directional drilling, ploughing, river crossings, pipe bursting and sliding. HDPE piping systems require fewer fittings and can be welded into seamless, leak-free pipes, resulting in significant labour and equipment savings.
HDPE pipes can be hot-fused together to form a joint that is as strong as or stronger than the pipe itself, while being virtually leak-free. Butt fusion and electrofusion are the most common and reliable welding techniques used to weld HDPE, offering significant installation advantages over traditional piping materials.
HDPE Dredge Pipe
HDPE pipes will not rust, corrode, crust or support biological scale or growth, and have excellent chemical resistance compared to traditional pipeline materials. HDPE is also unaffected by bacteria and fungi and is resistant to many organic substances.
Because HDPE pipe is smoother than steel, cast iron, ductile iron or concrete, a smaller diameter HDPE pipe can produce equivalent volume flow at the same pressure.
It has less resistance and a lower tendency to turbulence at high flow rates. HDPE's excellent chemical resistance and non-stick surface properties virtually eliminate scaling and pitting, maintaining excellent hydraulic properties throughout the life of the piping system.
