1. Durability: HDPE pipes are highly resistant to wear, abrasion, and impact, making them suitable for harsh environments.
2. Flexibility: They are flexible and can be easily bent, which reduces the need for fittings and joints.
3. Corrosion Resistance: HDPE pipes are immune to corrosion from chemicals, salts, and acids, ensuring long-term reliability.
4. Leak-Free Joints: The pipes can be joined by heat fusion, resulting in a leak-proof joint that is as strong as the pipe itself.
5. Lightweight: Easier to handle and install compared to traditional materials like steel or concrete.

Applications:

• Water Supply: Used in municipal, industrial, and rural water supply systems.
• Irrigation: Commonly used in agricultural irrigation systems.
• Sewage and Drainage: Effective in transporting sewage and drainage water due to its resistance to corrosion.
• Gas Distribution: Suitable for transporting natural gas and other gases.
• Industrial Applications: Used in chemical processing, mining, and other industries where pipelines are exposed to harsh chemicals.

Dimensions and Sizes:

• HDPE pipes are available in various diameters and lengths, tailored to specific applications.
• The thickness of the pipe walls can vary depending on the pressure rating (Class 10 in this case) and the specific requirements of the application.

Compliance and Standards:

• For HDPE Class 10:
  • Pressure Rating: The pipe can handle a pressure of up to 10 bars (1 bar = 14.5 psi), meaning it's suitable for applications that require up to 10 bars of pressure.
  • Applications: Class 10 HDPE pipes are often used in water supply systems, irrigation, and in some cases, gas distribution, depending on regional standards.

Advantages:

• Long service life, often exceeding 50 years.
• Cost-effective due to lower installation costs and reduced maintenance.
• Environmentally friendly, as HDPE is recyclable and has a lower carbon footprint compared to other materials.

Installation:

• Can be installed using trenchless technology, reducing the need for extensive digging.
• Suitable for above-ground, underground, and subaqueous installations.
