PE100 HDPE Pipes
PE100 polyethylene pipe with higher MRS for higher-pressure or thinner-wall design.
What is it?
PE100 HDPE pipes use polyethylene compound with Minimum Required Strength (MRS) of 10 MPa — allowing higher pressure rating or thinner walls than PE80 at the same SDR.
PE100 is a higher MRS grade than PE80: at the same SDR it allows thinner walls or higher pressure rating. Bukan Pipe produces PE100 HDPE pipes for water, gas and industrial networks where the grade is specified.
Technical specifications
| Pipe type | Single-wall HDPE extrusion |
|---|---|
| Production range | 16 mm to 630 mm, pressure rating 2.5 to 25 bar (depending on grade and SDR) |
| MRS | 10 MPa (PE100 designation) |
| Design benefit | Higher PN or reduced wall thickness vs PE80 at same SDR |
| Typical standards | INSO 14427-2 (water), EN 1555 / INSO 11223 (gas) — project-specific |
| Manufacturer | Bukan Pipe — Bukan, West Azerbaijan, Iran. Manufacturing since 1997. |
Technical advantages
- Higher MRS — smaller diameter or higher pressure in design
- Long-term underground performance in network applications
- Used with INSO 14427-2 for qualifying water supply production
Typical applications
- Higher-pressure water supply segments
- Industrial transfer where PE100 is specified
- Gas distribution where utility specification requires PE100

Standards and project compliance
PE100 resists internal pressure; external vacuum or collapse requires air valves, anchoring and line design — see Technical Center.
Quality control
Mechanical and thermal tests per laboratory scope.
FAQ
- Should PE100 always replace PE80?
- Material grade follows the project specification, pressure, temperature and engineer's design — not a universal substitution.
