Why Choose 50MM Threaded HDPE Couplings for Gulf Projects

During the course of their lives, infrastructure projects in the KSA and GCC regions encounter many problems, such as:

  • Hot weather conditions
  • Heavy UV radiation
  • Salty and sandy ground
  • Very short periods for construction
  • Difficulties in accessing to maintenance

The 50MM HDPE threaded coupling provides these solutions:

  • Fast installation through mechanic means
  • Connections that can be reused for modifications in the future
  • The ability to withstand corrosion and chemical attack
  • Being able to absorb vibrations and ground movement
  • Very long lifespan with very little maintenance

Because of these, they are extremely common in utility networks for telecom, electrical, irrigation, and industrial purposes.
