HDPE HI-PRO
BLACK PIPE
FOR GAS
Meets ASTM D2513, Cell Class Per ASTM D3350,
PPI-listed Material (TR-4) PE 4710 and PE 100.
JM Eagle’s high-density polyethylene black pipe for gas is suitable for use in multiple applications for distribution, and oil and gas gathering.
JM Eagle’s Hi-Pro high-density polyethylene black gas pipe is made from premium, highly engineered PE 4710 resin material for a maximum pressure rating to service today’s gas needs.
JM Eagle’s high-density polyethylene black pipe for gas is available in 1⁄2-inch to 20-inch diameters. It comes in sticks, as well as coil lengths in diameters up to 3 inches.
It may be installed by heat fusion or mechanical fittings.
The product’s physical properties make it applicable to open-trench and slip-lining installations.
PE 4710 surpasses PE 3408 in the following high-performance designations:
- Density class 4 (0.947 – 0.955 g/cc) vs. density
cell class 3 (> 0.940 – 0.947 g/cc).
- SCG (slow crack growth) cell class 7 per PENT
value of 500 hours vs. SCG cell class 4 or PENT
value of 10 hours.
- 1,000 psi HDS (hydrostatic design stress) vs.
800 psi HDS.
JM Eagle’s Hi-Pro HDPE black pipe for gas is manufactured from superior PE 4710 resin material for greater performance and an extended life expectancy.
- Its high-strength walls give it the highest PE pressure rating, outstanding resistance to slow crack growth and increased resistance to rapid crack propagation.
- The increased working stress rating of high-performance PE 4710 resin material allows use of a larger inside diameter (thinner wall) for a given operating pressure, making it a superior choice over steel or ductile iron pipe, especially for the large diameter pipe sizes.
- The larger inside diameter of JM Eagle Hi-Pro pipe not only improves system capability and flow, but it also lowers the cost of the pipe and its handling and installation, making it a more cost-effective choice over competing products.
