Polyethylene Piping for Industrial Applications

DriscoPlex® piping products meet or exceed performance needs for industrial applications. Advantages of using polyethylene pipe include:

• High strength and stiffness to withstand internal pressure and external loads.
• Chemical resistance to withstand corrosive chemicals (pH from I to 14), and aggressive soils.
• Resistance to environmental stress cracking and slow crack growth for long-term resistance to internal pressure, external loads and harsh environments.
• Flexibility, toughness, light weight, and impact resistance for lower cost installation, narrower trenches (reduced excavation), and fewer expensive fittings.
• Heat fusion joining for strong, lifetime leak-tight, fully restrained joints.
• Resilience for enhanced resistance to surge and fatigue.
• Remains flexible at sub-freezing temperatures.
• Retains long-term strength at elevated temperatures.
• Long-term strength for extended life and performance.
• Does not rust, rot, corrode, or support biological growth.
• Retains low resistance to liquid flows for reduced pumping and operating costs.

Industrial applications include:

• Industrial Process Piping
• Dredging, Slurry and Flyash Lines
• Temporary Bypass Pumping
• Outfalls and Diffusers
• Chemical Mineral Extraction
• Chemical and Corrosive Wastes
