Pe Pipe Polyethylene Pipe Plastic Pipe

What is UHMWPE

Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) is a new kind of engineering thermoplastics with more than 3 million viscosity-average molecular weight. Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene pipe has superior performance over conventional HDPE pipe such as very high wear resistance, impact resistance, excellent resistance to internal pressure strength, resistance to environmental stress cracking, intrinsically self-lubricating, anti-adhesion, low temperature resistance and excellent chemical resistance.

UHMWPE Pipe Benefits:

1.HighWearResistance UHMW-PEhasthebestwearresistantamongalltheengineeringplastics.Thehighermolecularweightofthematerial,themorewearresistantofthepipeline.Thewear resistance of UHMWPEpipesis4~6timeshigherthanQ235carbonsteel,2.7timeshigher thansilicon-manganese13wearresistantsteel, 3 times higher than HDPE pipes, which enables UHMWPE pipes to be ideal for sand and slurry discharging.2.Higher impact resistance and ring stiffnessThe impact resistance of UHMWPE pipes is 2 times of PC, and 10 times of PTFE. With good impact resistance, which could withstand the great water hammer impacts from various sand, muds and slurries;
3. Low Coefficient of Flow Resistance, High Transmission Efficiency,Saving Pumping Costs

UHMWPE pipes have very smooth surfaces with low friction loss and high flow rate. The manning roughness coefficient of UHMWPE pipe is 0.0065, meanwhile, steel pipe is 0.012, which could largely increase the transportation efficiency, saving pumping costs. 4.Minimized Maintenance time&CostsWith far superior wear resistance, the UHMWPE pipelines will have less rotation frequency, the pipeline replacement cycle will be largely prolonged, which efficiently minimize the total costs for the project.With good anti-adhesion, the UHMWPE pipelines will not be easy to have scaling, so no need acid cleaning.With good corrosion resistance, the UHMWPE pipelines will not need anti-corrosion treatment.5. Lightweight and EasyInstallationUHMWPE pipes are lightweight,thedensityofUHMWPEmaterialis0.945g/cm3– approximately one-half the weight of aluminum and one-eighth the weight of steel – reducing transportation, handling, and installation costs.The UHMWPE pipelines could be connected by steel flanges, easy to install and dismantle at the working sites.The UHMWPE stub ends will work as gaskets, the flat sealing face and good verticality will keep good sealing and well protect the flanging part from severe abrasion.Project CasesSpecificationFAQPerformancesStandardUHMWPE pipeHDPE pipe

Advantages of SDBEP on UHMWPE pipe than others:1. SDBEP is certified by ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001; CCS (China Classification Society) and IALA.2. SDBEP has professional teams for R&D (for equipment, raw material and production), QC, Engineering, construction, production and sales.3. SDBEP is the only one to do friction loss test on UHMWPE pipelines which can offer data for UHMWPe pipe design.3. SDBEP is professional and only focus on UHMWPe products (besides buoy and beacons, pipes, we are starting to make profiles)4. SDBEP's UHMWPE pipes flanges are not welded on the pipe, it is made from the pipe itself by automatic flanging machine This is unique. No other manufacturer could do it.So when someone is using SDBEP's flange pipe pictures, we can recognize at the first sight.5. Besides flange and socket fusion welding connection of UHMWPe pipe, we are the only one that hold the technique of coupling weld UHMWPE pipe.6. SDBEP's production efficiency of UHMWPE pipe is at least twice of other companies. The extruder and production parameter was researched and developed by our own R&D team.
