- Design working pressures are calculated in accordance with ASTM specifications. Local or state codes may supersede these ratings. Click here for more information on Plastic Pipe Design factors and Industry Standard processes. See WWW.Plasticpipe.org
- Meets specifications of ASTM F2619, ASTM D3035, and PPI TR-4 material designation code PE 4710. Material properties can be found listed in the Plastic Pipe Institute WEB site listed under the TR-4 Materials.
- Working pressures in excess of 73.4°F are calculated using ASTM Standandards & the Design Factor set forth by ASTM.
- For multiphase fluids, wet natural gas, and liquid hydrocarbons use a 0.5 de-rating service factor applied to the pressures given on the working pressure chart shown above. Service pressure and de-rating factors for various fluids including crude oil and wet natural gas shall be calculated in accordance with ASTM Standard or Local, State, Federal, D.O.T. regulations, which ever may supercede based on your location.
**PE 4710/PE 3608 High Density Polyethylene material ABSOLUTELY should NOT be used in service temperatures in excess of 140°F
