20mm Polyethylene Coupler Socket Plain PE80 Pipe Fitting

Equal Coupling Socket • Polyethylene PE80 • Plain Socket Fusion Fitting • PN10
Facilitates the connection of two lengths of 20mm OD Polyethylene pipe lengths in-line with the use of socket fusion.

Chemical Resistance Overview
Due to its non-polar nature as a hydrocarbon of high molecular weight, polyethylene shows a high resistance against chemical attack. PE is resistant to acids, alkaline solutions, solvents, alcohol and water. Fat and oil swell PE slightly. PE is not resistant against oxidising acids, ketones, aromatic hydrocarbons and chlorinated hydrocarbons. For information in regards to specific chemical resistances please speak to us.

UV Resistance:
Our polyethylene pipe & fittings are effectively stabilised against UV light by the addition of carbon black.

Physiological properties: Odourless, tasteless and physiologically inert. Our pipe and fittings are authorised for food use.

Max Working Pressures:
12 Bar Pressure at -50°C to +10°C for water similar media - Subject to pressure derating as shown below.
