The need for high-quality pipes for water and gas transmission, subsea vessels and other systems means that the use of PE pipes will only grow in the future. To meet the growing demand for piping products, simple methods of joining PE pipes are becoming more and more important.
What does PE pipe mean?
In the process of ethylene polymerization, we obtain polyethylene (PE), a thermoplastic substance. PE can be obtained in the form of rolls or in a straight length of up to 40 feet. For smaller diameters (6 inches outside diameter), winding is more common than continuous length. Based on three different measurement systems. Polyethylene pipes have multiple wall thicknesses to choose from:
1.Iron pipe size inner diameter, IPS-ID (SIDR)
2.Pipe size determined by constant outer diameter (DR)
3.Copper tube size outer diameter (CTS)
What are PE pipe fittings?
In pipeline systems, fittings or adapter joints are usually used to connect straight or clamped pipe sections. Change the shape or size of pipelines or ferrules. And adjust (or measure) the fluid flow rate.
The pipe fittings made of polyethylene (PE) are PE pipes. Most manufacturers offer mechanical connectors. Used to connect PE pipes and pipes made of other materials. Flange connectors or transition joints can be used to connect pipes.
PE Pipe Applications
The working temperature is between -20 º C and 40 º C. The maximum working pressure less than 0.7MPa is an acceptable condition for using PE water pipes.
PE water supply pipe has a number of advantages:
1.Despite its small size, it’s easy to transport and connect.
2.It has a smooth inner wall with low frictional resistance.
3.It is resistant to corrosion.
4.It is safe and healthy.
5.In fact, it has a 50-year service life.
6.It is usually utilized in municipal buried water supply, construction water supply, agriculture irrigation, residential quarters, and plant suppressed water supply systems when temperatures are 40 degrees Fahrenheit.
