5. Performance Standards for GRP Pipes
Currently there are several ASTM Product Standards
applications.
All product standards apply to pipe with diameter
(per ASTM D4161) that simulate exaggerated in-
use conditions. These standards include many tough

they are all performance based documents. This means that the required performance and testing of the pipe is

to meet the performance requirements of this standard. AWWA has recently issued a new standards manual, M-45,
which includes several chapters on the design and fabricate of GRP pipe for buried and aboveground installations.

pipes. Our GRP pipe conforms to these standards’ performance requirements too.

6. A common element shared by all standards is the need for a pipe manufacturer to demonstrate compliance with the
standards’minimum performance requirements. In the case of GRP pipe, these minimum performance requirements fall
pressure and strain corrosion capability. Our GRP pipe has been rigorously tested to verify conformance to the ASTM
A unique and important performance requirement for GRP gravity pipe used in sewer applications is the chemical testing
strained rings are then exposed at the invert of the interior surface to 1.0N (5% by weight) sulphuric acid (see Figure 1).
This is intended to simulate a buried septic sewer condition. This has been shown to be representative of the worst sewer
conditions including those found in the Middle East, where many GRP pipes have been successfully installed.
The time to failure (leakage) for each test sample is measured. The minimum extrapolated failure strain at 50 years, using
a least squares regression analysis of the failure data, must equal the values shown for each stiffness class. The value
achieved is then relatable to the pipe design to enable prediction of safe installation limitations for GRP pipe used for this
Design Basis - HDB. This test is carried out in accordance with ASTM
(leakage) of many pipe samples at a variety of very high constant pressure
levels. As in the previously described strain corrosion test, the resulting
data is evaluated on a log-log basis for pressure (or hoop tensile strain) vs.
time to failure and then extrapolated to 50 years. The extrapolated failure
pressure (strain) at 50 years, referred to as the hydrostatic design basis
(strain) or HDB, must be at least 1.8 times the rated pressure class (strain
at the rated pressure).
In other words, the design criteria requires that the average pipe be capable
of withstanding a constant pressure of 1.8 times the maximum operating
condition for 50 years. Due to combined loading considerations, that is
term factor of safety against pressure failure alone is higher than 1.8. This

There is no evidence to suggest that ultraviolet degradation is a factor that affects the long-term service life of GRP
pipes. The outermost surface will be affected with discoloring of the surface observed. If so desired, the installing
contractor may paint the exterior surface of GRP pipe with a two-part urethane paint compatible with GRP. However,
this will then become an item requiring future maintenance.

Products Introduction:
1. Good chemical corrosion resistant performance
Polyethylene is an inert material and resistant to erosion
of many chemical media. It doesn’t have electrochemical
corrosion and does not need anti-corrosion coating.
Chemical substances present in the soil will not cause
any degradation of the pipe. In addition, it will not promote
growth of algae and bacteria.
2. Good anti-stress and cracking performance
Polyethylene has low notch sensitivity, high anti-shearing
strength and excellent capabilities in its resistance to
stress and cracking are also
very prominent.
3. Good low-temperature
impact brittleness
Polyethylene’s low brittle
temperature is very low
and is can be used safely
at the temperature range
of -200Cto +400C.During
winter construction, brittle
rupture of the pipe will not
occur due to its good anti impact performance.
4. Anti-aging and long service life
PE pipe with 2%-2.5% uniformly distributed carbon black
resulted by ultraviolet radiation. Service life of 50 years
can be ensured .
5. Good wearing resistant performance
The anti-wearing comparison test between polyethylene
pipe shows that wearing resistant performance of
of slurry transportation, polyethylene pipe has better
wearing resistant performance compared to steel pipe
which means polyethylene pipe possesses longer service
life and better economy.
6. High toughness

very strong. It is also an excellent pipeline with good anti-
seismic performance.

8. Polyethylene pipe has good ability to resist scratches
Studies show that polyethylene with PE80 grade has
relatively good ability in resisting SCG and scratches.
While the polyethylene with PE100 grade has much
excellent ability in resisting scratches.
n
Among the commonly used plastic pipe materials,
polyethylene’s ability in resisting rapid scratches
transformation ranks at the top. The lower the
temperature, the larger the pipe’s diameter as well as
the wall thickness and the higher the working pressure,
the risk for plastic pipe to crack rapidly is greater.
Therefore, polyethylene pipe especially PE100 pipe is
more suitable for making pipes with bigger diameter.
10. Easy to transport
Polyethylene pipe is lighter than concrete, galvanized
pipe and steel pipe, and it is easy to transport and
11. Best option for brand new construction methods
Polyethylene pipe is equipped with a variety of
construction techniques, in addition to traditional
excavation methods, plenty of brand new trenchless
technology can be used, such as construct by means
of pushing pipes ,directional drilling, liner, etc. For the
site where excavation is not allowed, this is the only
broader.
12. Operation can be implemented with water and gas,
at the same time the emergency repairing can also be
carried out by adopting gas-stopping folder and water-
stopping folder.
Besides that, speaking from the pipe’s water features,
polyethylene pipe has a smooth inner surface with
resistance is small. The surface and non-stick features
ensure that polyethylene pipe has ahigher transmission
capacity than the traditional pipe materials, at the same
time the pipeline’s pressure and energy construction of
water transportation are also reduced.
