FRP pipes and fittings have excellent resistance against electrolytic or galvanic corrosion or any known corrosive soil or water condition. the pipe is also characterized by highly abrasion resistance.
High Flow Capacity
FRP pipes have a smooth internal surface which ensures less drag and a lower tendency for turbulence at high flow. Its superior flow characteristic eliminates scaling and pitting and guarantees consistent flow through out the pipe's entire service life.
Low Installation Cost
FRP pipes are light weight, flexible, and produced in long length, which results in easier and convenient installation. The flexible nature of the poly thylene pipes reduces the use of bends.
Alternate installation methods such as Directional Drilling Pipe Building, Slip Lining, Plough and Plant, Submerged or Floating Pipe, etc. can save considerable time and money in most potable water applications.
Easy Maintenance
FRP pipes are maintenance free with a design life of over 50 years under normal operating conditions. pipes offer long-term resistance to avariety of service conditions such as:abrasion, temperature and soil movements, bending, weathering, internal pressure, direct burial,point loading and squeeze-off.
Easy Handling
FRP pipe is about one-eighth the density of steel and thus does not require the use of heavy lifting equipment for installation.
High Impact Strength
Polyethylene pipe is able to structurally with stand a higher impact than equivalent rigid pipes, especially during cold weather installations when other materials are more prone to cracks and impact failure.
Slow crack growth is the primary cause of most pipe failures and this is primarily investigated by third party damage during the installation process.
