A2™ Liner Pipe

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document discusses the A2™ Liner PVC, a trenchless technology solution for rehabilitating deteriorating sanitary and storm sewers. It highlights the cost-effectiveness, installation methods, and benefits of using A2™ Liner over traditional methods.
Specifications: A2™ Liner is made from high-quality PVC with a cell classification of 12454, ensuring durability and resistance to chemical attacks. It features a double-wall design for added stiffness and a smooth interior to enhance hydraulic capacity.
Installation Procedures: The A2™ Liner can be installed using sliplining methods, which involve inserting the liner into existing pipes without disrupting the flow. The liner is available in various diameters and lengths, allowing for easy installation in different conditions. The patented STAB-JOINT® ensures watertight connections even in misaligned or obstructed pipes.
Performance and Benefits: The A2™ Liner restores hydraulic capacity with a Manning’s “n” of .009, potentially increasing flow capacity. It is less costly than cured-in-place pipe methods and eliminates the need for costly bypass operations. The liner's lightweight design allows for easy handling and installation with minimal equipment.
Testing and Standards: The product meets several ASTM standards, including ASTM F949 for PVC corrugated sewer pipes and ASTM D3212 for joint tightness. It is tested for stiffness and joint integrity to ensure long-term performance.
Applications: Besides sewer rehabilitation, A2™ Liner is suitable for relining distressed culverts, offering high strength and stiffness without the weight of solid wall pipes. Its design minimizes traffic disruption and potential pavement settlement.
Conclusion: A2™ Liner provides a reliable, cost-effective solution for sewer and culvert rehabilitation, with proven installation methods and compliance with industry standards.

A2™ Liner Increases Hydraulic Capacity When reinforced concrete and vitrified clay pipe have offset joints, cracks, spalling or protrusions, there is greater resistance to flow, reducing hydraulic capacity. Significant hydraulic improvements are achieved when these deteri-orated pipes are sliplined with A2™ Liner. Its Manning’s “n” of .009 can actually result in increased flow capacity and higher flow velocities for improved self-cleaning. The Manning equation can be used to determine the flow capacities for circular pipes before and after rehabilitation with A2™ Liner: 8/3 DA2™ Liner n existing...

A2™ Liner Installation Procedures Table 2 Safe Compressive/Jacking Loads and Pushing Distances for A2™ Liner Sliplining Considerations • Inspect and clean the existing pipeline and verify the liner clearance prior to sliplining. • Remove any obstructions, protrusions, joint offsets, debris, out-of-roundness or other irregularities that could damage or prohibit passage of the liner pipe. • Install the liner pipe by either pushing or pulling it through the existing pipe. The leading pipe spigot end is usually fitted with a nose cone to help the liner pipe ride over small joint misalignments and...

A2™ Liner Rapidly Renovates Culverts In addition to repairing sanitary and storm sewers, the design features of A2™ Liner design features make it the obvious choice for relining distressed culverts. The corrugated exterior design provides high strength and high stiffness without the additional weight of solid wall pipe alternatives. A2™ Liner’s lightweight design, coupled with a unique gasketed STAB-JOINT, makes joining easy. Lubricant, two chains and one or two come-alongs are usually all that is required to join sections. The light, easy-to-handle sections allow for maneuvering in tight workspaces....
