Polyethylene encasement is the easiest, most economical, and most effective method of corrosion protection for pipe and fittings whether it was installed in aggressive soils or it was facing the climate factors.
Polyethylene encasement is a tube or sheet of polyethylene film that is slipped over or wrapped around the exterior of the pipe and/or the fitting at the job site prior to installation.
– Indelible: Permanent ink-bonding resists chemical attacks and weather corrosion. Furthermore, the bright colorations ensure maximum visibility.
– Flexible: stretches up to 3 times its normal size before breaking
Advantages:
- It is inexpensive.
- It requires no monitoring or maintenance.
- It has no operating costs.
- It will not deteriorate while underground.
- It is easy to install.
- It requires no special handling or packaging during shipment of the pipe.
PE sheets:
Manufactured from 100% prime first-grade quality resins with thickness from 50 – 500 microns, the width can be up to 5 meters. Mainly used to protect from weather conditions and to be laid under concrete slaps.
