Why is PE pipe preferred for municipal water supply project? What is the reason?

AD PE pipe overcomes the shortcomings of galvanized pipes and cast iron pipes that are easy to rust, scale, breed bacteria and have a short lifespan; it has the characteristics of reliable quality, safe operation, convenient maintenance and cost economy, especially the hot melt process of PE water supply pipe is more suitable for direct burial and hidden burial of pipelines, and effectively solves the problem of joint leakage.

In municipal water supply projects, AD PE pipe has become the preferred pipe material for "plastic instead of steel" in the pipeline field. What are its advantages?

NO.01: Excellent physical properties

PE pipe not only maintains the rigidity and strength of high-density polyethylene, but also has good flexibility and creep resistance, and higher-density polyethylene has the characteristics of excellent hot melt connection performance, which is conducive to the installation of plastic pipes.

NO.02: Corrosion resistance, no scaling

PE water supply pipe is a kind of polymer material with non-polar structure, with acid and alkali corrosion resistance, no rust, no scaling, aging resistance, no breeding of microorganisms, no odor, is an ideal pipe for drinking water transportation.

NO.03: Toughness, good flexibility

PE pipe is a kind of high toughness pipe, the ability to adapt to uneven settlement and dislocation of the pipe foundation is very strong, and the earthquake resistance is good. Practices around the world have confirmed that PE pipe is the pipe with the best shock resistance.

NO.04: The circulation capacity is large, and the inner wall of the

PE pipe is smooth and does not scale economically. Compared with metal pipe, PE pipe can reduce the project investment by about one-third, and the small diameter pipe that can be coiled can further reduce the project cost.

NO.05: Easy connection, simple construction, various methods

PE pipe body light, easy handling, easy welding, welding less, when the pipeline is long can be used coil laying, PE pipe groove requirements are far lower than steel pipe groove requirements, and when the construction conditions are limited, can be used electrofusion welding.

NO.06: light

quality is only 1/10 of steel, can greatly reduce the construction intensity of workers, reduce the cost of mechanical hoisting.

NO.07: long service life easy to recycle

PE pipe service life up to 50 years, easy to recycle, will not produce substances that have an impact on the environment, mature technology and continuous development.

NO.08:5 cm per second

has strong adaptability to changes in the foundation. PE pipe is a kind of high toughness pipe, its elongation at break is generally more than 50%, the ability to adapt to uneven settlement of the pipe foundation is very strong, and it has effective resistance to foundation settlement and end load.

NO.09: Easy maintenance

can repair and install without stopping water, gas.

NO.10: Good stress cracking resistance

PE pipe has low notch sensitivity, environmental stress resistance is very prominent, low temperature impact resistance is good.
