In the last decade, products from polymers were rapidly bursting into the trumpet market. Where they are just not used: in residential buildings, in production, medicine, by and large, duplicating a significant part of the functions of traditional metal pipes.
However, the established ideas about pipelines presenting us often unpleasant surprises in the form of technogenic disasters on gas pipelines, geysers in the middle of the road, wet walls, floating slippers, inspire fair fears – is a polyethylene pipe safe?
Of course, the certified Gostovsky products are produced using a technology that guarantees properties with a large margin of safety, and manufacturers are seriously responsible, if God forbid, that ..
The main advantage of the polyethylene pipe is corrosion resistance. Polyethylene is a chemically neutral material, so it opposes any type of soil.
Physical properties allow you to adequately withstand temperature fluctuations from -50 to +50 Celsius.
We also pay attention to the elasticity of the pipe. Showing example – the technology of laying an underground pipeline without digging a ditch. A horizontal stem hole is drilled under the ground and a whip from the pipe is simply dragged into it, simultaneously welding at the joints. By the way, stretching pipe from polyethylene to 10% does not reduce its endurance.
When laying pipelines underground in the case of metal pipes, the surface is insulated with polymeric materials or mastic. Polyethylene pipe is not necessary by definition. From here – the cost is at times lower.
In gas pipelines to transport natural gas, a polyethylene gas pipeline pipe is used.
It is supplied either with bays, or, at the request of the customer, in measured form.
