HDPE Black Pipe

HDPE Black Pipe PE100 SDR11 PN16 – 1.5m Lengths

Our HDPE Black Pipe range delivers the performance of full-specification PE100 SDR11 pressure pipe in practical 1.5m cut lengths. Each pipe is manufactured from virgin PE100 grade high-density polyethylene to AS/NZS 4130, with a pressure rating of PN16 (16 bar at 20 degrees Celsius) and a Standard Dimension Ratio of 11.

These 1.5m lengths are cut from certified 6m trade lengths and are ideal for smaller projects, repairs, fabrication, and applications where full-length pipe is impractical. The shorter length also makes them easier to handle on site and more economical to ship via standard courier and freight services.

HDPE PE100 pipe offers significant advantages over traditional metallic piping. It is completely corrosion-resistant, lightweight, and flexible enough to accommodate ground movement without fracturing. The carbon black content provides excellent long-term UV stability for above-ground installations, while the smooth internal bore minimises friction losses and resists biological fouling.

Joining Methods

HDPE PE100 pipe can be joined using butt fusion welding, electrofusion welding, or mechanical compression fittings. The SDR11 wall provides ample material for reliable fusion joints. For smaller diameters, metric compression fittings offer a quick and reusable connection method without the need for specialised welding equipment.
