WearPro+ Pipes

pipes

Reasons to Consider Using WearPro+ Pipes:

  • Anti-Scaling
  • Superior Chemical Resistivity (for details click here)
  • Superior abrasion resistance to WearPro (click here for testing report)
  • Abrasion resistance is around 20 times that of PE100 HDPE
  • Impact resistance lower than WearPro
  • Extreme wear resistance
  • Extreme low surface roughness
  • Self lubrcating
  • Most suitable for pneumatic or dry, pure abrasion applications, with zero to no turbulence

Pipe & Buoy Australia is the only UHMWPE pipe manufacturer in the world. We are not just a "materials" company:

Custom sizes available, where moulds already exist from 20-1400mm OD, up to 65 WT. Product can be manufactured in any colour, and to all conformance requirements.

  • The only extruder to enforce ISO 9001, 14001, and OHSAS 18001 certifications exclusively
  • The only extruder capable of pipe >45mm WT and >800mm OD (Capable of 65mm and 1400 OD respectively)
  • Our PipePro range is such, that we are the only pipe company that will refuse to sell HDPE pipe for slurry applications
