ASCE Library have demonstrated long-term performance under varied load and exposure conditions.
Professional FAQ on DN500 HDPE double wall corrugated drain pipes
-
Q1: What is the core material used for DN500 HDPE double wall corrugated drain pipes?
A1: The pipes are manufactured from high density polyethylene resin (PE100 or PE80 grade), ensuring superior toughness, corrosion resistance, and durability.
-
Q2: What are the standard stiffness classes (SN) for this product?
A2:
DN500 HDPE double wall corrugated drain pipes are typically available in SN4, SN8, and SN12.5, where higher SN values indicate higher ring stiffness for more demanding installations (
reference).
-
Q3: Which joining method ensures watertight sealing?
A3: A rubber ring socket/spigot joint system, compliant with EN681-1 standard, is commonly adopted to offer excellent leak-proof and flexible connections during installation.
-
Q4: What are the recommended installation standards?
A4: Installation of DN500 HDPE double wall corrugated drain pipes should follow ISO 21138-2, ensuring proper trenching, bedding, and compaction to maximize lifetime performance.
-
Q5: How does HDPE resist chemical attack compared to traditional materials?
A5: According to the
Plastic Pipe Institute, HDPE offers outstanding resistance to most acids, bases, and hydrocarbons, making it far superior to steel or concrete in aggressive environments.
-
Q6: Can these pipes be custom-fabricated for length or color coding?
A6: Yes, DN500 HDPE double wall corrugated drain pipes can be manufactured in various lengths (6m, 9m, 12m, or custom) and color strips for identification and installation ease.
-
Q7: What is the expected service life in standard applications?
A7: Under ISO and EN standards, the service life of a well-installed HDPE drainage pipe exceeds 50 years, outperforming concrete and even PVC solutions in long-term infrastructure.
