HDPE Pipes
H.D.P.E. pipes conforms to IS-4984 and made as per IS-14333, ISO-4427, ISO-4437 & DIN 8074 specifications, manufactured in state-of-the-art plant with latest manufacturing technology under strict quality control.
TEXMO H.D.P.E. pipes are best preferred for potable water supply, irrigation schemes, chemicals and edibles transportation, effluent collection and disposal system, submarine and underwater pipe lines, hydro transport system, gas/compressed air system etc.. |
|
|
| TEXMO H.D.P.E. pipes have been preferred over other available resources due to varied salient features |
- High
corrosion resistance, resulting into a longer
life.
- High
impact strength.
- Extremely
light weight and hence easy to handle.
- High
flexibility.
- High
abrasion resistance.
- Excellent
water hammer characteristics, helps sustaining
surges.
- Excellent
flow characteristics leading to significant
energy saving.
- No
exfiltration and infiltration, helps maintaining
the quality of fluid being conveyed.
- No
trenches needed, resulting into easy and
economical installation.
- High UV
resistance.
- High
resistance to scaling and biological build up.
- High
chemical resistance, absolutely inert to any pH
value.
- Virtually maintenance free.

| Salient Features of HDPE Pipes : |
Strong and Durable : |
TEXMO H.D.P.E. Pipes are strong, resilient and impact resistant. |
|
|
Light Weight : |
Are easy in handling, transportation & installation, even on difficult terrain |
|
Length as Required : |
Are available in straight as well as coil lengths, so less joints & couplers needed. |
|
Better Flow Characteristic : |
There is no deposit formation, so diameter of pipe remains the same and hence better flow. |
|
Hygienic & Odorless : |
There is no contamination as the pipes are resistant to -
- Scale formation
- Chemical formation
- Biological formation
|
|
Energy Saving : |
Have smooth internal surface which implies low frictional loss. Hence the power consumption is on lower side. |
|
Leak Proof : |
Are leak proof due to close dimensional tolerance & precision designing and joining. |
|
Chemical Resistance : |
Are totally inert to all the chemicals. |
|
Economical : |
Are reasonably priced and long lasting. These pipes have better flow characteristics so a small diameter pipe can be used. |
|
Long Lasting : |
Are in fact 10 times longer lasting than GI or Rubber pipe. These pipes are free from rusting, weathering & abrasion therefore are an investment for a life time. |
|
Maintenance Free : |
Have no breakage and are unaffected by environmental stress. |

Comparison of TEXMO range of HDPE pipes with GI pipes |
|
HDPE |
GI |
Length |
TEXMO HDPE pipes are flexible and can be coiled. User gets single pipe as per his requirements. Hence no/ less joints. Coils are available in different lengths. |
GI pipes are available in 6 m length. Threading is required to join pipes which is laborious, expensive and time consuming. |
Size and Pressure |
Wide range from 20mm to 630mm sizes with 2.5 to 16 kg/cm² pressure rating. |
Limited range compared to HDPE pipes. |
Corrosion |
Possesses excellent corrosion resistance to water, acids & alkalies. |
Corrodes faster specially in water submergence. |
Internal Surface |
Smooth surface offers very low frictional resistance. Resistance to encrustation/ abrasion. |
Offers resistance to flow due to less smoother surface which gets worse due to corrosion over a period of time. |
Flexibility |
Can take curvature up to a radius 25 times the pipe dia. hence can be coiled. |
No flexibility. Can be used in straight length. |
Weight |
It is approx. 4 to 5 times lighter then GI pipes for applications like suction & delivery pipes. |
Heavier than HDPE pipe, so it is costly is transportation, installation & manpower. |
Maintenance & Life |
Virtually maintenance free. The joints are 100% leakproof. Have a long life. |
Requires maintenance frequently. Life is not more than five years. |
Installation |
Easy, as no special equipments are required. Submersible pump can be installed in 1 hour time for depth more than 80m to 100m. |
Cumbersome. Chainpully required apart from holding clamps. Takes almost 5 to 8 hours depth of 80m to 100m. |
Cost |
Unit cost of delivered water is approx. 15 to 20% lower than GI iUpto110 mm size |
Unit cost of delivered water is more in GI pipes as compared to HDPE pipes. |
Energy saving with HDPE Pipe as compared to CI pipes |
