High-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipe is widely used in water supply, gas distribution, irrigation, sewerage, drainage and industrial networks. Bukan Pipe has manufactured single-wall PE pipe since 1997, up to 630 mm outside diameter.

PE and HDPE terminology

Polyethylene (PE) is the polymer family; HDPE denotes high density grade used for pressure pipe. In procurement documents you may see PE, HDPE, PE80 or PE100 — the grade affects pressure design at a given SDR.

Application overview

  • Water supply — INSO 14427-2 for qualifying Bukan Pipe production
  • Gas distribution branches — EN 1555, INSO 11233, IGS-M-PL-014-1 where applicable
  • Pressurised irrigation and agricultural mains
  • Sewerage and surface drainage
  • Cable protection and industrial transfer where specified

PE80 and PE100

Material grade (PE80, PE100) sets MRS and wall thickness for a given pressure. PE100 allows thinner walls or higher pressure at the same SDR. See the PE100 product page for specifications and supply options for that grade.

SDR and PN / pressure rating

SDR is the ratio of outside diameter to wall thickness. PN is the nominal pressure marked on pipe at 20 °C reference temperature. At higher fluid or ambient temperatures, apply derating to obtain maximum operating pressure (MOP).

Connection methods

Butt fusion is common in water supply; electrofusion is the approved method for gas distribution in Iran. Joint quality depends on operator qualification, equipment parameters and inspection.

Selection checklist

  • Application and fluid (water, gas, wastewater, drainage)
  • Design pressure and operating temperature
  • Project standard and engineer approval
  • Jointing method and ancillaries (air valves, check valves)

FAQ

How is HDPE pipe priced?
Price depends on diameter, SDR, PN, quantity and delivery terms. Request a current quote from sales.
What is the difference between water and gas PE pipe?
Each application has distinct standards, pressure class and jointing requirements. See the relevant product pages for pipe specifications.
