Introducing Polybutene-1 Piping Systems - Benefits and Advantages

Installation Advantages

Pipework of up to 22mm in diameter is supplied in coiled lengths of up to 100 metres, thus long pipe runs can be installed without the need for straight connectors Pipes up to 22mm in diameter can be cabled around obstructions and through joists - thus fewer joints are necessary than with traditional materials
Pipework can be installed in suspended floors from below before ceilings are fitted No bending tools are required - in fact a complete pipework installation can be completed requiring only a pair of pipe cutters
Supplied coils are easily handled and uncoiled into straight lengths No naked flame heating is required to make a reliable watertight joint. In larger bore pipes (> 32mm) pre-fabricated socket fusion and/or in situ modern electro-fusion systems can be installed
No solders, fluxes or greases are used with Polybutene-1 systems Many installations can be made without accurate pre-measuring, since it is easy to measure and cut in situ
Polybutene-1 systems' suppliers provide complete systems including pipes, fittings and accessories thus performance and integrity are guaranteed Larger pipe diameters (32 - 225 mm) used in major installation projects can be jointed in situ using computerised failsafe electro-fusion welding techniques. The equipment required is small, lightweight and portable, requiring only an electricity source for power
