What range of pipe diameters is available?

Quick access

PE100 can be manufactured in a wide range of polyethylene pipe diameters from 16mm to 2000mm. Even larger diameters are possible with the development of appropriate extrusion dies. However the common range of pipe sizes is from 32mm to 1200mm.

Nominal diameter of a PE100 pipe is its external diameter, not its internal bore diameter.

Standard diameters of PE100 pipe in this range are:

32 mm 63mm 90mm 110mm
125mm 160mm 180mm 225mm
250mm 280mm 315mm 355mm
400mm 450mm 500mm 560mm
630mm 710mm 800mm 900mm
1000mm 1100mm 1200mm  

The internal bore diameter for each of these sizes will depend on the SDR of the polyethylene pipe. Non-standard PE100 pipe sizes can be manufactured for specific applications if necessary.

What pipe lengths are available?

Limitation of PE pipe length Is the pipe manufacture is a continuous process, in theory the lengths available are unlimited. In practice however the lengths are limited by transport, ease of handling on site, other general site conditions and local practices. PE100 pipe is generally available in three forms Straight lengths of pipe (diameters 90mm and above) in standard lengths of 6, 10, 12, 15, 24, and 30 metres. For some special projects, e.g. sea outfall installations, where transport can be...
