Under the BS3505:1968, this range of pipes is categorised into various classes. Each class serves different purposes and has various thickness with ability of withstanding the following working pressures:



Class B = 6 Bar Pressure Rate.



Class C = 9 Bar Pressure Rate.



Class D = 12 Bar Pressure Rate.



Class E = 15 Bar Pressure Rate.

1 Mpa (mega Pascal) = 10 bars

1 Bar = 14.2 Psi (Pound per sq inch)





Class B & C (PN 6 & PN 9)

The pipes are commonly used as cable conduits and have excellent dielectric strength because of their insulation properties.



The sizes range from 80mm to 200mm nominal diameter.

They are available in grey, blue and red colour.

A special moulded 6" end cap is also available.

These pipes and fittings are approved by the Public Utilities Board and all other local authorities.



Class D (PN 12)

They have the pressure strength of 12 Bar. This allow the pipes to be fitted to mechanical equipments, such as pumps and cooling towers. They are also used in conjunction with mechanical machinery in the factory.



The sizes range from 80mm to 150mm nominal diameter.

Produced in plains ends, these pipes are used in conveying cold water to household and irrigation purposes.
