POLYPIPE® FM PIPE ADVANTAGES

FM Approved HDPE piping from PolyPipe® offers advantages that other piping products cannot deliver:
¾ Superior design life for many years of trouble-free service.

¾ Higher flow coefficients due to the smooth inner
wall surface of the pipe.
¾ Outstanding chemical and abrasion resistance
assures long-term performance.
¾ Heat-fused, fully restrained joints eliminate leaks.
¾ Proven in the field, HDPE piping materials will deliver
excellent underground fire water service with a surge
tolerance not found in other piping materials.
