Nylon Pipesystem
Pipesystem for gravel and sand extraction
Due to their specific characteristics, our pipes have firmly established in the gravel and sand industry, the potash and salt industries and in mining. They have outperformed pipes made from other materials in a host of application.
Our Nylon Pipesystem can be laid above ground, underground, above or under water. The pipes and flanges are manufactured seamlessly by centrifugal casting according to the activated anionic polymerization principle. This manufacturing process assures very high structural density in a bubble-free casting of constant wall thickness. Our pipes can be manufactured to individual standards of wall thickness or cross section to suit specific customer needs. When demands are roughest, they prove their superiority to pipes of other materials.
Benefits
- Lower pressure loss than with steel pipes = energy cost savings
- Highly abrasion-resistant, wearresistant, therefore long service life
- High thermal resistance from – 40 °C to +120 °C
- Excellent corrosion resistance
- Very good stiffness
- Resistant to chemicals, sewage, sea water, etc.
- Best weathering and UV resistance
- Flexible and resistant to permanent deformation
- Low dead weight 70–80 % less than steel pipes and -50 % less than HDPE pipes
- Recyclable
