Polyethylene Pipes (PE32 & PE100): Reliable, Leak-Tight, and Cost-Efficient
akpls PE32 (HDPE) and PE100 pipes outperform concrete and metal alternatives with low weight, flexibility, and strong chemical/UV resistance. They deliver long service life across potable water, sewer, stormwater, and industrial applications.
PE32 vs PE100 at a Glance
| Feature | PE32 (HDPE) | PE100 |
|---|---|---|
| Strength Class | Moderate; very flexible | High; 10 MPa MRS class |
| Pressure (SDR/PN) | Lower PN ranges | SDR11/17 etc. for higher PN |
| Typical Uses | Landscape, low-pressure water, irrigation | Potable networks, gas*, industrial |
| Jointing | Electrofusion / butt fusion (as specified) | Electrofusion & butt fusion widely used |
| Service Life | Long at low pressure | 50–100 years at high pressure |
*Gas networks require local approvals/standards.
Why Polyethylene?
- Lightweight & Fast Install: Lower handling, transport and labor costs.
- Leak-Tight Joints: Electrofusion and butt fusion ensure system integrity.
- Chemical/UV Resistance: No corrosion; minimal maintenance.
- Flexibility: Lower crack risk under ground movement.
- Hydraulic Efficiency: Smooth bore reduces friction losses and energy.
- Sustainability: Recyclable materials and long lifecycle.
Applications
Potable water transmission/distribution, sewer and stormwater, industrial fluids, irrigation, and mining pipelines.
Versus Concrete/Metal
- No rust/corrosion and excellent chemical resistance.
- Flexible—less prone to cracking and joint failure.
- Lightweight—faster builds and lower total installed cost.
