Manufacturer page.EPD: Polyethylene pressure pipe (PVC-O), PN1 2.5, OD 177.4 mm, 3.8 kg/m, 1420-1500 kg/m3, Apollo®/Apollo Blue® (Iplex)
Iplex PVC-O is a bi-axially oriented PVC pressure pipe for use in transmission, distribution and reticulation water supply, pressure sewer infrastructure, wastewater and irrigation. Iplex NZ manufactures the pipe using two patented processes known as Biax Extrusion and Super Socketing. This method of production results in an exceptionally tough, high performance thermoplastic pipe with greatly enhanced physical characteristics, including greater impact resistance, higher ductility, improved fatigue resistance and reduced weight when compared with other PVC pressure pipes. PVC-O to AS/NZS 4441 is an Acceptable Pipe Material in NZS 4404:2010 Appendix A, for pressure water supply and pressure sewer applications.
