HDPE Pipes - Advantages


PAPL HDPE pipes are manufactured on stae of the art German Battenfled Extruder and offer a number advantages over conventional pipes.

The following are some of the advantages


Flexibility
:
PAPL HDPE pipes are flexible. They are best suited for laying in hilly and uneven terrains as flexibility allowas the pipes to adapt to the contour of the land. Flexibility allowas easy handling, laying and also easy transportation therby reducing the overall installation cost. These pipes can be supplied in coils (from 20 mm to 110 mm OD) and in straight lengths.

Low specific weight : PAPL HDPE pipes are light in weight as compared to conventional metal pipes such as GI, CI, MS because of its lo materail density. Due to low weight they are easy for handling, reduce transportation costs, reduce manpower and minimum installation cost.

Good chemical resistance : PAPL HDPE pipes are generally non corrosive therby making them acceptable for use even in hostile environmental conditions. HDPE pipes are ideal for use in saline environments. Scale deposits and microbial growth do not occur in HDPE pipes.

Perfect weldability : PAPL HDPE pipes joined together by buttfusion welding and electrofusion welding techniques, which make these joints highly reliable.

Abrasion / Wear resistance : PAPL HDPE pipes have excellent resistance to abrasion/wear. Due to this unique property these pipes are used for sand stowing of mines, dredging in ports, dewatering of mines, transportaion of abrasive slurries e.g mineral ore concentrates, boiler ash, wood chips, paper pulps etc under high pressure.

Low coefficient of friction : PAPL HDPE pipes have the internal surfaces that are very smooth. smooth internal surface offer excellent flow charecteristics and minimum pressure losses.
Tough and Strong : PAL HDPE pipes are tough and impact resistant. They can easily withstand both internal soil pressures as well as external traffic loads when installed properly.

Good weathering resistance : PAPL HDPE pipes possess good weathering properties such as high environmental stress cracking resiatance(ECSR). The black color of the pipes ensures resistance against UV Radiations.
