Types of polyethylene pipes

Pipe made of polyethylene, meshed, with medium to high density, which has been improved with the purpose of heat resistance and increased strength. In this way, it can be used for hot and cold water systems. Residential fire extinguishing systems and domestic water heating systems are the main uses of these pipes. Water pipes with a temperature above 200 degrees and the radiator system work with these pipes.

A special type of polyethylene pipe produced under the name of PERT. This pipe is also designed for high temperature. The changes in the polymer structure of this pipe will withstand very high temperatures and chemical corrosion. The ability to withstand very high pressure and very high temperature is one of the characteristics of this pipe. That is why it is used for all radiant heating and cooling systems. Like the PEX model, it can also be used for hot and cold water systems. It is also used for air conditioning system. In general, it has high resistance to pressure, high temperature and corrosion.

These pipes are classified as single-walled pipes, but due to the wide range of applications, they are considered in a separate category. The pipes that are made of LDPE will have the task of transferring water from the irrigation source to the micro pipes. These pipes usually don't have high flexibility, that's why you can use joints for corners.

To create joints in the pipe, a type of seal is used that doesn't cause pressure drop. Thin polyethylene pipes are also used for water to reach the plant. The diameter of the thin strips is different depending on the product that is planted.

HDPE pipes with high density for irrigation lines. Irrigation polyethylene pipe can be found from 1.6 cm to 20 cm size. These pipes are produced in coils. The life of these pipes is up to 100 years. It has high strength and will withstand high pressure.

LDPE pipes are a type of low density polyethylene pipes. These pipes are mostly used for drip irrigation. Pipes that do not pass a high flow rate. The size of these tubes is small and is usually between 1.6 and 3.3 cm. Its lifespan is much shorter than the high density model and it can last up to 15 years.

High density polyethylene pipe structure, also known as HDPE. Its structure has been developed in such a way that it can be used for underground projects. The transportation costs of such pipes are low compared to similar ones because they weigh less. The flexibility of the pipes is high. They don't have sensitivity and dryness during performance, that's why they won't be harmed. Resistance to wear and chemical corrosion and the possibility of transporting semi-solid fluids with high weight are the characteristics of this pipe. Its surface is completely grooved and ring-shaped. It has different types. One type of it is smooth inside and grooved outside, which is called S type. The other type is both the outer surface and the inner surface of carrogate, which is known as C, and the last type is ring-shaped connecting elements, which is known as D type. This pipe is used in flood drainage and sewage and sewage transfer. Subsurface drainage is simple.

Single wall pipes are one of the popular types of polyethylene pipes. It withstands pressure between 2 and 40 bar. It includes a wide range of diameters. It is used to transfer water and gas. It replaces PVC and GRP pipes. It is made in different grades. If you intend to buy a single wall polyethylene pipe, you will probably come across PE and a number next to it. This number indicates the amount of pressure that the pipe can withstand. For example, PE60 can withstand a pressure of 6 MPa. The higher the number, the higher the grade of the pipe and the higher its resistance. Single layer polyethylene is mostly used in rural water supply system. These polyethylene pipes can be used for pressurized irrigation and rain and drip irrigation systems. It is even used for gas supply and air conditioning systems.
