PE 80 Pipes for Pressurised Water Networks

PE 80 solid wall pipes are manufactured from high-quality polyethylene with a Minimum Required Strength (MRS) of 8 MPa and a design stress (σS) of 6.3 MPa. Designed for pressurised water distribution systems, these pipes feature smooth internal and external surfaces to promote efficient water flow and long-term operational performance.

Available in black, with or without co-extruded coloured identification stripes, or in solid blue, the range is manufactured in outside diameters from 20 mm to 1200 mm. Pipes are supplied in both coils and straight lengths to suit a wide variety of installation requirements.

Description

Features & Benefits

  • Watertight Performance
    Provides a permanently watertight solution, ensuring reliable operation and minimising the risk of leakage throughout the network.
  • Excellent Flexibility
    Offers outstanding bending characteristics, making installation easier, particularly for manual applications and in colder climates.
  • Low Modulus of Elasticity
    The material’s flexibility enables it to accommodate ground movement and external loading while maintaining structural integrity.
  • Resilient Performance
    The ductile nature of PE80 allows the pipe to withstand unstable ground conditions and dynamic loads without compromising performance.
  • Extensive Size and Pressure Range
    Available in a comprehensive selection of diameters and pressure classes, allowing systems to be optimised for specific project requirements.
  • Comprehensive Fittings Portfolio
    Supported by a wide range of standard and bespoke fittings and specialist components to accommodate a variety of network configurations.
  • Suitable for Potable Water Applications
    Complies with EN 1622 requirements for the determination of odour and taste, making it suitable for use in drinking water distribution systems.
  • Electrically Non-Conductive
    Inert to stray electrical currents, reducing the risk of corrosion and improving long-term network reliability.
  • Excellent Chemical Resistance
    Resistant to a broad range of chemicals in accordance with ISO/TR 10358, making it suitable for demanding operating environments.
  • High Abrasion Resistance
    Provides excellent resistance to wear, extending service life in applications where abrasive materials may be present.
  • Outstanding Impact Resistance
    High shock absorption capability helps protect the pipeline from damage during transportation, installation and operation.
  • Environmentally Responsible
    Fully recyclable, supporting sustainable infrastructure development and responsible material use.
