Plumbing Systems | Pre-Insulated Pipe Systems

Pre-Insulated PipeThe pre-insulated plastic piping system which has the properties of cross-linked polyethylene (PE-Xa) permits a wide variety of applications. Due to its high temperature resistance and high resistance to cracking it is featured in both inside and outside of buildings on many commercial as well as domestic applications. The system also comprises of a complete range of products for heating as well as hot and cold water supplies. Through its whole range of applications, not only can water be transported but also a range of liquids including chemicals and liquids from food processing plants.

Its material properties provide a long service life and as the pipes are low weight and highly flexible, they can be installed easily and quickly, even over obstacles and round corners. The product gives a benefit of minimal energy loss due to the insulation value within.

Pre-Insulated Pipe Make-Up

1. Ribbed jacket pipe made of impact proof polyethylene. Very flexible with high load baring capacity

2. Excellent low weight PEX foam heat insulation

3. The two coloured ‘dog bone’ prevents mix ups in flow and return connections

4. Corrosion proof, oxygen impermeable carrier pipe made of PEX material

 

Advantages
• Light weight and easy to transport
• High material flexibility
• Simple installation
• Low pipe frictional drop
• No build up of deposits
• Corrosion-proof
• Easy to install through floors and walls
• Connections and take-offs are easily insulated later
• Pipe can be cut to size as required and delivered direct to the construction site – saving on transportation costs as well as time
• No special tools required for assembly for either connections, laterals or house connections
