Manufacturing Hdpe Water Pipe - Low Cost & Long Service Life
High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) is a polyethylene thermoplastic made from petroleum. It takes 1.75 kilograms of petroleum (in terms of energy and raw materials) to make one kilogram of HDPE.
HDPE has little branching, giving it stronger intermolecular forces and tensile strength than lower density polyethylene. It is also harder and more rigid and can withstand somewhat higher temperatures (120 deg C for short periods of time).
With the changes to ASTM in 2006, North America is seeing HDPE pipes perform with high pressure ratings, higher temperatures, and much greater Environmental Stress Crack resistance.
Polytubes is synonymous with small diameter Polyethylene pipe in Canada. Enhancing our reputation for reliable product quality with customers is one of our means to accomplish excellence. Preserving and increasing our good reputation is an essential strategic asset for us.
