HighWearResistance UHMWPEhasthebestwearresistanceamongalltheengineeringplastics.Thehighermolecularweightofthematerial ensure thebetterwearresistanceofthepipeline. Thewear resistance of UHMWPEpipeis4~6timeshigherthanQ235carbonsteel pipe,2.7timeshigher thansilicon-manganese13wearresistantsteel pipe and 3 times higher than HDPE pipe, which enables UHMWPE pipe to be ideal for sand and slurry discharging. 2.High Impact Resistance and Ring Stiffness The 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 sands, muds and slurries; 3. Low Coefficient of Flow Resistance, High Transmission Efficiency and Saving Pumping Costs UHMWPE pipe has very smooth surface with low friction loss and high flow rate. The manning roughness coefficient of UHMWPE pipe is 0.0065, while steel pipe is 0.012, which could greatly increase the transportation efficiency, saving pumping costs. 4.Minimizing Maintenance Time and Costs With 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. Flange Adapter HDPE, HDPE Tee, Pipe Floats, Rubber Suction Hose for sale. 5. Lightweight and EasyInstallation UHMWPE pipe is light weight and thedensityofitsmaterialis0.945g/cm3, approximately one-half the weight of aluminum and one-eighth the weight of steel, which effectively reducing transportation, handling and installation costs. The UHMWPE pipeline could be connected by steel flanges, easy to install and dismantle at the working sites.
