Product description
Engineered for the demanding conditions of the UAE's water infrastructure, this HDPE (high-density polyethylene) pipe from Al Mona Factory offers a robust solution for potable water transmission and distribution. Manufactured to ISO 4427-2, it combines high strength with exceptional flexibility, making it ideal for both buried and above-ground installations across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and the Northern Emirates.
With a pressure rating of PN10 (10 bar) and an outer diameter of 400 mm, this PE80 pipe ensures reliable performance in high-pressure water networks. Its SDR 13.6 rating and 29.4 mm wall thickness provide excellent resistance to internal pressure, while the material's inherent toughness delivers a maintenance-free service life of up to 50 years. The pipe's black body with blue stripes clearly identifies its use for water applications, aiding in quick recognition during installation and maintenance.
Key Features
- Material: High-density polyethylene (PE80) with a minimum required strength (MRS) of 8 MPa
- Pressure rating: PN10 (10 bar) with a design stress of 6.4 MPa and safety factor C=1.25
- Dimensions: 400 mm outer diameter, 29.4 mm wall thickness, SDR 13.6
- Chemical resistance: withstands pH levels from 2 to 12, ideal for aggressive soils and industrial environments
- UV and weather resistant: suitable for prolonged exposure in the UAE's harsh desert sun
- Earthquake resistant: high flexibility in pipe and welded joints absorbs ground movement
- Standard lengths: 12 meters (custom lengths available on request)
Applications in the UAE
This HDPE pipe is widely used in municipal water supply lines, irrigation networks, and industrial cooling systems across the Emirates. Its resistance to corrosion and abrasion makes it a preferred choice for seawater intake and desalination plant connections, while its light weight and ease of fusion welding reduce installation time and cost in both urban and remote sites.
