What is PE pipe?

PE pipe, short for polyethylene pipe, is a thermoplastic pipe made of polyethylene (PE) plastic. It is widely used in water supply, gas distribution, agricultural irrigation, and industrial fluid transportation. Due to its corrosion resistance, flexibility, lightweight, and environmentally friendly properties, PE pipe has become an important choice for modern pipeline projects, particularly in gas, water supply, and agricultural irrigation. Different models are available for different pressure levels, allowing users to select the appropriate PE pipe based on their needs.

Key Features:

High Corrosion Resistance

Polyethylene is chemically stable and resistant to corrosion by acids, alkalis, and salts, making it suitable for transporting a variety of chemical media and offering a long service life.

Excellent Flexibility and Strong Impact Resistance

PE pipe's high flexibility allows it to withstand ground subsidence and minor earthquakes without breaking.

Lightweight and easy to install.

Compared to metal pipes (such as steel and cast iron), PE pipe is lighter, easier to transport and install, and can be connected by hot melt, eliminating the need for complex welding.

Excellent Low-Temperature Resistance

PE pipe is resistant to brittle cracking even in low-temperature environments (maintaining its toughness at -60°C), making it suitable for use in cold regions. Hygienic and safe, meeting drinking water standards
Food-grade PE materials (such as PE100) are non-toxic and odorless, suitable for drinking water transportation, and meet national hygiene standards.

Low flow resistance, energy-efficient and efficient
Smooth inner wall reduces fluid resistance, improves water delivery efficiency, and reduces pumping energy consumption.
