High-density polyethylene, abbreviated as PE-HD, is used to manufacture segmental pipes and fittings. It is a raw material that works well in many pipe applications. It is characterised by high resistance to impact loads that can occur during pipe-laying and a wide range of operating temperatures that allow work to be carried out at any time of the year.
The subject of the presentation are PE 100 single-layer pipes and TYTAN PE/PE and TYTAN PE/PP single- or double-layer pipes made of polyethylene PE 100-RC and polypropylene (PP) intended for pressure pipes (waterworks, gas fuels, pressure and vacuum sewers) and gravity pipes (sanitary sewerage systems, drainage), as well as for making culverts under road banks laid underground in the roadway.
Tests of TYTAN pipes carried out at HESSEL Ingenieurtechnik GmbH and at the Oil and Gas Institute in Krakow confirm that they are resistant to scratches and point loads that can occur when building the network at home without using ballast and backfill and when building and renovating the network using traditional methods and excavation.
Pipe sections depending on diameter and purpose can be combined using the following methods:
They are intended, among other things, for the construction of water supply networks, sewerage networks and for the transport of aggressive liquids.
