What kind of pipe is pe pipe?

PE pipe (polyethylene pipe) is a water supply pipe extruded from polyethylene resin. Mainly used for indoor and outdoor low-temperature water supply pipelines. PE resin is polymerized from monomer ethylene. Due to different polymerization conditions such as pressure and temperature, resins with different densities can be obtained, so there are high density polyethylene, medium density polyethylene and low density polyethylene.

When processing different types of PE pipes, different resin brands are selected according to different application conditions, and the requirements for extruders and dies are also different. PE32, PE40, PE63, PE80 and PE 100 are listed as the materials of polyethylene pipes internationally, while PE80 and PE 100 are the main materials used for gas pipes and water supply pipes.

Characteristics of pe pipe products

1, good sanitary performance. When PE pipe is processed, no heavy metal salt stabilizer is added, and the material is non-toxic, has no scaling layer and does not breed bacteria, which well solves the secondary pollution of urban drinking water.

2. Excellent corrosion resistance. Except for a few strong oxidants, it can resist the erosion of various chemical media; No electrochemical corrosion.

3. Long service life. At rated temperature and pressure, PE pipeline can be safely used for more than 50 years.

4. Good impact resistance. PE pipe has good toughness and high impact strength, and heavy objects directly press through the pipe, which will not cause the pipe to break.

5. Reliable connection performance. The strength of hot-melt or electric welding joint of PE pipe is higher than that of pipe body, and the joint will not break due to soil movement or live load.

6. Good construction performance. The pipeline has the advantages of light weight, simple welding process, convenient construction and low comprehensive engineering cost.
