PE AL PEX Piping System
PE AL PEX Piping System
Kitec Industries (India) Ltd offers PE AL PEX Piping System. KiTEC PE-AL-PEX pipe is in continuation of its philosophy of giving technologically superior products to the customer. KiTEC PE-AL-PEX Pipes are manufactured as per IAPMO IGC (India)-309-2014 standard. KiTEC PE-AL-PEX multilayer barrier pipe and compression DZR Brass fittings are specially designed for the hot water / heating applications.
KiTEC PE-AL-PEX multilayer barrier pipe is manufactured from high density cross-linked polyethylene as inner wall with an aluminium strip layer as the middle wall of the pipe which in turn is covered with a thin layer of UV Stabilized black polyethylene. Cross-linked polyethylene, commonly abbreviated PEX or XLPE, is a form of polyethylene with cross-links. PEX is made from high density polyethylene (HDPE). PEX contains cross-linked bonds in the polymer structure, changing the thermoplastic to a thermoset. Crosslinking is accomplished during or after the extrusion of the tubing. The required degree of cross-linking, according to ASTM Standard F 876-93, is between 65 and 89%. A higher degree of cross-linking could result in brittleness and stress cracking of the material. Cross-linking of polyethylene into PEX for pipes results in improved properties such as elevated temperature strength and performance, chemical resistance, and resistance to slow crack growth.
