Specific PE Pipe Advantages in Mining
When it comes to selecting pipe materials for mining applications, the two most important factors are security and reliability. The pipe must be rustproof, break-resistant and corrosion-free. It must safeguard the environment and protect the taxpayer. It must have a track record that professional engineers and installers respect.
If you want your pipe to meet and exceed those challenges, it must be polyethylene (PE) pipe.
Proven advantages of PE pipe for mining applications include:
- Chemical and Abrasion Resistance
- Low Cost
- Ease of Installation
- Pressure Surge Resistant
