What are the connections for HDPE drains?
To understand how HDPE drains are connected, the first thing to know is what HDPE drains are. What are the properties and where are they used? Today, Carbon Steel running nipple factory would like to take everyone to see the features of HDPE and its various ways of connecting.
The HDPE drain pipe is a thermoplastic pipe. The base body is mainly made of high-density polyethylene resin and is extruded for use in a plastic pipe without internal pressure. The raw material is white powder or granule, non-toxic, odorless, and has the advantages of corrosion resistance, aging resistance, impact resistance and crack resistance. There are 4 general connection methods:
1, hot melt butt welding
This connection method consists of a hydraulic operation console, welding frame and fixture, electric heating plate, electric milling cutter and other parts. When welding, use a ferrule mica sheet to compress the structure and position the pipe. After heating the PE pipe and the pipe to be connected under pressure, after reaching the hot melt temperature, remove the heating tool, apply pressure to connect the two molten faces together, and keep it under a stable pressure for a period of time until the joint cools. Full computer automatic control.
2, socket type flexible connection
The socket type flexible connection is a new type of connection method, which is to directly insert one end of the pipe into the special socket of the pipe or the pipe fitting, press the pull ring through the locking ring in the socket to resist the drawing, and the rubber sealing ring is pressed tightly to achieve The purpose of connecting pipes and fittings. Non-rigid connection, good seismic performance; easy to disassemble and maintain; high raw material characteristics and tensile strength;
3, socket type fused connection
The socket type electrofusion connection is to make the electrofusion tube with the embedded resistance wire (generally copper wire) in close contact with the connection part of the pipe material, and heat the connection part through the embedded resistance wire to fuse it into one body until the joint cool down.
4, grooved clamp connection
HDPE grooved clamp connection for quick and detachable installation. It does not need to be repaired and replaced throughout the life cycle, and has a service life of more than 50 years. It is suitable for super high-rise, five-star hotels, high-end residences, hospitals, chemical plants, laboratories, etc.
