UHMWPE pipe for dredger

 

 

Characteristics of UHMWPE pipe

 

1.High Wear Resistant

 

Compare with existing plastic pipes, Wear resistant UNMWPE pipe has the most excellent wear resistance which is 4 to 7 times that of Q235 steel pipe and 2.7 times that of wear-resistant steel 16Mn. Therefore it increases pipe flow rate and improves the transmission efficiency of more than 20%. The working life of UHMWPE pipes is more than 3 times that of wear-resistant steel pipe.

Wear resistant UHMWPE pipe has great advantages to replace traditional metal pipes in delivering abrasive media.           

                                                    

2.Impact Resistant

 

Wear resistant UHMWPE pipe is greatly impact resistant which is 5 times that of HDPE pipe, 2 times that of PC pipe and 10 times that of PTEE pipes. With extraordinary impact resistance, UHMWPE pipe can withstand great water hammer impact when starting up pump station.

 

3.Low Energy Consumption

 

Wear resistant UHMWPE pipe is self-lubrication and non-adhesive. Its coefficient of friction resistant is 0.009 while that of steel pipe is 0.013. With the same diameter, flow rate of UHMWPE pipe is large than steel pipe, and with the same flow rate, UHMWPE pipe can save 25% energy.

 

4.Non-scaling

 

With roughness of 0.00022 and smooth pipe inner wall, it can efficiently avoid scaling without acid cleaning, which save a lot of maintenance cost.

 

5.Anti Low Temperature

 

   At the temperature of -70°C, UHMWPE pipe can work with normal mechanical performance. It is suitable for water supply and drainage in cold area.

 

6. High Pressure Resistant

 

   UHMWPE pipe is high pressure resistant and highly flexible. The compressive strength of UHMWPE pipe is 2 times to that of PE100 pipe and 2.5 times to that of PE80. UHMWPE pipes can withstand wide fluctuate of water pressure in the pipeline.

 

7. Maintenance Free

 

With characteristics of corrosion resistance, low temperature resistance, non-scaling, no leakage, etc, UHMWPE pipe can work without extra anticorrosive coating, cleaning and maintenance which save more than 95% energy.

 

8. Environment Friendly

 

   The manufacturing and processing of wear resistant UHMWPE pipe is low carbon and environment friendly with low emission of carbon dioxide which is 15% that of steel pipe and without discharge of wasted water, exhausted gas and waste residue which saves 20% energy compare with the traditional steel pipes.

 

9. High Flexibility

 

   With high toughness and elongation of no less than 350%, the UHMWPE pipe and the connection site will not crack when crust setting which maximally ensure to supply water normally.
