Precautions When Installing PE Pipes

Mar 21, 2022

When enterprises are constructing PE pipes, in order to ensure the safety of construction, the integrity of pipes and the improvement of use efficiency, we need to pay attention to some related matters to prevent accidents in pipe construction, affecting the construction efficiency of pipes, and Subsequent normal use.

1. Scratches of the tube

The PE pipe material is soft and easy to be scratched. Therefore, contact with sharp objects should be avoided during transportation, especially when handling and lowering the pipe at the construction site. Due to the complex terrain of the construction site, there is often iron on the groove wall. Sharp objects such as nails and masonry fragments can easily scratch the PE pipe.

2. The stacking of tubes

When PE pipes and fittings are temporarily stacked at the construction site, they should be covered to avoid sunlight and rain, and should not come into contact with chemical substances such as oils, acids, alkali, salts and active agents.

3. Unification of specifications and models of pipes

The same project must use the same brand, material and the same standard size rate (SDR) of PE pipes and fittings, and use the same batch of products from the same manufacturer to ensure consistent performance of pipes and fittings and reliable hot-melt connection. If it is necessary to connect PE pipes and pipe fittings of different brands and materials with similar properties, they can be used after testing to determine whether the connection quality can fully meet the requirements.
