HPPE Connection to HDPE
HPPE Connection to HDPE
(OP)
Hi everybody,
I wonder if somebody help me to find out: "Is it possible to connect the 12" PN 16 HDPE PE pipe to 12" HPPE PE 100 pipe?"
Is it safe? Which consideration shall be seen in advance?
The HDPE pipe is exsiting and HPPE will be new lines.
As I know connection between various type of PolyEthelene is very difficult and unreliable?
I will appriciated from your ideas.

thanks from your reply,
For your information: The HDPE is existing line and it is old spec and we don't know which type of HDPE is that. HPPE is our project PE pipe spec.
We don't have any flange in tie-in point for existing line.
So we have to connect these two pipes by joint for example butt fusion weld. My question is that how we can ensure this connection will be OK. Also for this new material (HPPE) during purchasing which property shall be considered.
Regards,
