PE-Xc Plastic pipe

Product catalog summary

Introduction
Polyethylene Xc (PE-Xc) pipes are designed for heating applications and drinking water installations. They are available in single-layer and multi-layer configurations, with the latter being oxygen-tight as per DIN 4726 standards, making them suitable for heating systems.

Structure and Material
The pipes are made from high-density polyethylene, which is physically cross-linked using electron radiation. This process enhances temperature resistance, making the pipes suitable for drinking water installations. The five-layer pipes include an oxygen barrier and are manufactured in a single stage using adhesives.

Dimensions
Pipes are available in diameters ranging from 6 mm to 32 mm. Special dimensions and tolerances can be requested.

Applications
PE-Xc pipes are used in drinking water installations, radiator connections, underfloor heating, and cooling systems.

Approvals and Standards
The pipes comply with several standards, including DIN Certco, ÖNorm, KIWA, KOMO, and SKZ. They meet the properties outlined in DIN 16892 and DIN EN ISO 15875-2.

Advantages
The five-layer pipes are oxygen-tight and can operate at a maximum of 95°C and 6 bar, with a constant temperature of 70°C. They are corrosion-free, resistant to incrustation, and can withstand various chemicals. The pipes are available with protective corrugated pipes in red, blue, and black, and pre-insulated options are also offered.

Jointing Method
PE-Xc pipes are installed using press systems that ensure tight and permanent joints, eliminating the need for welding or soldering. The pipes are compatible with push-in fittings.

Accessories and Tools
HakaGerodur provides a range of accessories and tools for pipe installation, including pipe cutters, calibrators, and presses.

Mounting Rails
The mounting rail for underfloor heating is a U-shaped fixing rail with pipe holding clips, designed for easy installation and compliance with technical building requirements.

Additional Features
PE-Xc pipes offer high temperature and pressure resistance, low weight, and high elasticity, making them suitable for rough laying conditions.

Polyethylene Xc (PE-Xc) The hygienically perfect strong plastic pipe for h eating applications and drinking water installations

Open the catalog to page 1

We produce PE-Xc pipes with up to five layers. While the single-layer variant is configured for drinking water installations, the multi-layer pipes are oxygen tight in accordance with DIN 4726 and therefore suitable for heating systems and other areas. The entire HakaGerodur range is backed by decades of experience in plastics processing. And this vast pool of knowledge is employed for the benefit of our customers.
