HDPE Puddle Flange

HDPE Puddle Flange is a component used to surround and protect pipes. It can be another pipe body outside a pipe body, or it can be a pre-made metal or non-metallic shell of a specific shape. Its main functions include providing additional protection, enhancing the support of the pipe, and guiding the pipe through different environments.

HDPE Puddle flanges perform the same as Ductile Iron (DI) Puddle Flanges. Designed for encasement in concrete, where PE passes through a structure (typically a concrete wall). Because PE is an ‘end to end system’ a HDPE puddle flange must withstand loads that exceed the ultimate tensile strength of the pipe, meaning Pipe fails first in a tensile pull to failure.

JUNRUI puddle flanges are either injection moulded in PE100+ or machined from a single piece of extruded PE100+ hollow bar. They contain no welds or joints in the puddle area. (between the tapered sections).

HDPE Puddle Flange Function

HDPE Puddle Flange plays an important role in many industrial and commercial applications. In the pipeline system, it is used to connect two sections of pipes to achieve smooth transmission of fluids. In addition, they can also provide additional protection for the pipe, especially when passing through walls, floors, or equipment, to prevent the pipe from being worn or damaged. In some special environments, such as high temperature, high pressure, or corrosive environments, the protective role that the sleeve can play is particularly critical. They can also guide the pipeline to be arranged along a certain path to ensure the safety and stability of the entire system.
