HDPE Screen
High Density Polyethylene Screen
High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) Pipe has proven itself as a remarkably successful piping material. It's
unique properties has made it a popular pipe for a variety of demanding applications. Installations such as
Landfills, Mines, Environmental Remediation, Industrial Screening, and Leachate Collection Systems have
proven HDPE slotted pipe is the ideal choice for a dependable and rugged collection screen. We are pleas-
ed to offer slotted and perforated HDPE into these demanding applications.
Buried Systems
HDPE Slotted Pipe especially lends itself to buried collection systems such as Leachate Collection in Landfill, and Mining applications. It's ability to withstand tremendous soil-loading without cracking is a significant advantage over other piping systems. Materials such as PVC and ABS tend to crack under pressures commonly found in such installations, especially when slots weaken the structure of the pipe. HDPE's low notch sensitivity and high resistance to environmental stress cracking make it an excellent choice for a dependable and economical solution to slotted collection applications.
Temperature
Most plastic pipe systems are subject to installation and application limitations in low temperature environments. HDPE has a broad installation and application range. HDPE retains a high impact and cracking resistance in low temperatures while providing superior service and ease of installation.
Slotted Collection Systems
Slotted Collection Systems offer a number of advantages over typical round hole perforated systems. Often angular or rounded gravels, and backfill can effectively block a significant percentages of a perforated hole's open area. Thus restricting it's ability to collect. Slots are not easily plugged by these backfills, allowing the superior open area of slotted pipe to lower intake velocities, reducing silting, and the possibility of plugging.
