HDPE Gas Distribution
Application:
JM Eagle’s high-density polyethylene black pipe for gas is suitable for use in multiple applications for distribution, and oil and gas gathering.
Benefits:
JM Eagle’s HDPE black pipe for gas is manufactured from superior PE 4710 resin material for greater performance and an extended life expectancy.
- Its butt-fused joints eliminate potential leak points, common at 20 feet with ductile iron pipe, for a zero leak rate.
- Highly resistant to corrosion and weather, recent studies conclude it will last at least 100 years.
- Its light weight and flexibility make it easy to install, eliminate the need for fittings required with directional changes, and make it highly suitable for use in earthquake prone areas.
- Its high-strength walls give it the highest PE pressure rating, outstanding resistance to SCG and increased resistance to rapid crack propagation.
- The increased working stress rating of high-performance PE 4710 resin material allows use of a larger inside diameter (thinner wall) for a given operating pressure, making it a superior choice over steel or ductile iron pipe, especially for the large-diameter pipe sizes.
