Water
HDPE (Poly) Piping is the most durable and resilient piping for water and water supply line applications.
It will never rust, leak, or corrode. Virtually maintenance-free. And it's flexible for an easy install.
We can customize the pipe's diameter, thickness, color, and other options to suit your project.
Applications Include:
- Municipal Water Supply
- Gravity Sewer Line
- Force Main Sewer Line
- Pipe Bursting
Did you know...
The failure rate of PVC pipe is 200 times higher than HDPE?
HDPE (Poly) Piping failure rate is 1 in 10,000,000.
