Polymer Concrete Pipes
Combines the strength of Polymer Concrete with the enhanced corrosion resistance of GRP. The Pipe consists of an internal and an external composite liner of glass reinforced plastic sandwiching a core of Polymer Concrete.
The two liners which act as permanent formwork during casting of the pipe, bond to the polymer concrete to become an integral part of each other. This bond gives a major increase in strength. The ring beam strength of this pipe is over twice that of a plain Polymer Concrete Pipe.
The outside of the pipe has a smooth glossy exterior consisting of a glass reinforced liner. This gives a total external impervious surface to the pipe. The pipe does not absorb water during the drive, and the weight you start with is the weight you finish with. The smooth exterior face also helps reduce friction thus reducing jacking loads.
