PE-rt pipe fittings on polybutylene is a kind of heat-resistant polyethylene pipe fittings, also known as heat-resistant polyethylene (PE-RT) pipe. Its full name is Polyethylene of raised temperature resistance, that is, high-temperature heat-resistant polyethylene pipe. This kind of pipe fittings is made of ethylene and octene monomers through metallocene catalysis copolymerization. It has good flexibility, small bending radius, and unique “stress relaxation”, that is, it does not rebound after bending, which is convenient for laying operations. The design features of PE-rt pipe fittings on polybutylene include high temperature resistance and anti-freezing properties, which make it widely used in heating and hot water systems. In addition, the color of PE-RT pipe fittings is the original color of the raw material, that is, transparent color, and no masterbatch or filler is added.
PE-rt pipe fittings on polybutylene Function
PE-rt pipe fittings on polybutylene are mainly used in high temperature environments such as heating and hot water systems. They have good heat resistance, low temperature resistance, impact resistance, thermal stability, and good flexibility, small bending radius, and unique “stress relaxation” that does not rebound after bending, which is convenient for laying operations.
Features
The design features of PE-RT pipe fittings on polybutylene include good flexibility, small bending radius, and unique “stress relaxation” that does not rebound after bending. These features make PE-RT pipe fittings more convenient to install and repair. They also have good impact resistance and thermal stability, and can adapt to various complex working environments. The main raw material of PE-RT pipe fittings is modified polyethylene resin, which has higher heat resistance and creep resistance, allowing PE-RT pipe fittings to maintain good physical properties in high temperature environments, thereby extending their service life. In addition, PE-RT pipe fittings also have good resistance to severe cold, and can be constructed in low temperature environments without preheating the pipes, reducing costs and improving work efficiency.
PE-rt pipe fittings on polybutylene Application
The application areas of PE-rt pipe fittings on polybutylene are mainly concentrated in environments that need to withstand high temperatures, such as heating and hot water systems. Compared with ordinary PE Fittings, PE-RT pipe fittings not only retain the advantages of hot-melt connection, hygiene, non-toxicity, low temperature resistance, good flexibility, and easy construction, but also make up for the shortcomings of PE pipes in high temperature performance, providing a longer service life, which is expected to reach more than 50 years, while the service life of ordinary PE pipes is about 20-30 years. These characteristics and advantages make PE-RT polyethylene pipe fittings an economical and applicable new environmentally friendly pipe material among the current floor heating pipes.
