To date, replacing the usual metal and cast iron pipes are increasingly PEX pipe and polypropylene pipes.
PEX pipe – pipes made of chemically modified polyethylene. The technology of production and modification of polyethylene pipe to create a higher quality characteristics and possessing new properties.
This is achieved through a special technology so-called crosslinking, which provides the molecules crosslink polyethylene. This process makes PEX Pipe PEX so dense and strong.
Basic properties of PEX pipes
# Flexibility and memory shape.
# Stability at the maximum temperature up to +95 degrees Celsius and a maximum atmospheric pressure to 10 atm. We should respect the rules and operating conditions.
# Application antikislorodnogo barrier, which prevents the penetration of oxygen into the tube, which ensures long life PEX pipes
# The smoothness of the inside of the tube, which prevents accumulation of dirt and mud. This property guarantees the longevity of the pipe and the purity of water supplied.
# Resistance to chemical influences, solvents, allowing use of plastic pipe and for the filing of fluids in the workplace.
# High elasticity of the pipe, which prevents the formation of cracks and wrinkles, even with prolonged exposure and heavy load, including at high temperatures.
# Resistance to abrasion. This property provides a long service life PEX pipe even in areas that are subjected to constant mechanical stress.
# High resistance to electric current. PEX pipe, as any polyethylene pipes are resistant to stress and do not conduct current. This allows their use in all institutions, residential zhomah and enterprises.
# High strength. Technologies and production methods PEX pipes, you can create high-strength pipes for water supply, gas supply, sewage systems and other life support systems.
