Description
The PE Tube 8 × 12 mm is a high-quality polyethylene (PE) dosing tube designed for the safe and reliable transfer of chemicals in dosing and water treatment systems. Manufactured from durable low-density polyethylene (LDPE), it offers excellent flexibility, chemical resistance, and long service life, making it ideal for use with chemical dosing pumps in residential, commercial, and industrial applications.
Suitable for use on both suction and discharge lines of chemical dosing pumps, the tubing provides reliable chemical transfer for water treatment, wastewater treatment, agriculture, swimming pools, and industrial process dosing. Its UV-resistant construction makes it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations, while the smooth internal bore promotes consistent flow and helps reduce the risk of blockages.
Features:
- High-quality LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene) construction.
- Flexible and easy to install.
- Excellent resistance to many acids, alkalis, salts, and treatment chemicals.
- Suitable for suction and discharge lines on chemical dosing pumps.
- UV-resistant for indoor and outdoor applications.
- Smooth internal bore for consistent chemical flow.
- Lightweight and durable.
- Long service life with minimal maintenance.
- Suitable for residential, commercial, and industrial chemical dosing systems.
Specifications:
- Tube Size: 8 mm ID × 12 mm OD.
- Wall Thickness: 2.0 mm.
- Material: Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE).
- Colour: Opaque White (Natural Matte).
- UV Resistance: Yes.
- Temperature Resistance Range: -35°C to +55°C.
- Maximum Burst Pressure: Up to 50 bar (at 20°C).
- Minimum Bend Radius: 80 mm to 108 mm (to prevent structural kinking).
- Texture/Flexibility: Rigid to semi-rigid. The 2 mm wall prevents expanding or ballooning under continuous pressure.
- Chemical Resistance: Excellent resistance to sodium hypochlorite, fluoride solutions, alum, diluted hydrochloric acid, hydrogen peroxide, and most alkaline cleaning detergents. Always verify chemical compatibility before use.
Applications:
- Chemical dosing systems.
- Water treatment plants.
- Wastewater treatment systems.
- Reverse osmosis systems.
- Swimming pool chemical dosing.
- Agriculture and fertigation.
- Industrial process dosing.
- Mining applications.
- Laboratory chemical transfer.
Installation:
Ensure the tubing is compatible with the chemical being dosed before installation. Cut the tubing squarely to ensure a secure connection with compression or push-fit fittings. Avoid sharp bends or kinks that may restrict flow. Periodically inspect the tubing for signs of wear, chemical attack, or damage, and replace it as part of routine maintenance to ensure reliable dosing performance.
