HDPE PE100 Main-Duct 160mm PN16
High-Pressure Cable & Utility Ducting for Gulf Infrastructure
Key Features of HDPE PE100 Main-Duct 160 mm – PN 16
1. Utilize High-Strength PE100 Material
PE100 is suggested as a material:
- With highest tensile strength
- With good to excellent crack resistance
- With the lowest creep deformation
- Long-lasting reliability
This ensures that the pipe will not fail due to high pressures and heavy loads.
2. Full Black with UV Protection
Duct is fully black and designed with UV resistance so it will not die or lose its quality under the brutal Gulf sun; moreover, it will be good for outdoor, rooftop, and open-space installations.
3. PN 16 Pressure Rating
With a PN 16 rating, the duct can safely endure a pressure of 16 bars, meaning it is perfect for the protection of pressurized cables and for industrial utility lines.
4. Smooth Internal Surface
The internal surface is frictionless and guarantees that cable pulling will be done quick and safely thus reducing the installation time and avoiding damages to cables.
5. No Corrosion and Chemical Resistance
HDPE is a material that is going to stand up to:
- Corrosive soil
- Acids and bases
- Coastal regions with high salinity
- Attack by microbes
- It is suitable for the severity of KSA and GCC areas.
6. Great Flexibility
The duct can bend without breaking, thereby making installation in hilly or trenchless areas easier.
7. Lightweight and Easy to Install
HDPE ducts are lighter than concrete, PVC or metal ones and hence easier to transport, handle and install.
