Acu-Tech Piping Systems

ACU-DRAIN

Acu-Drain HDPE is a complete drain, waste and vent system of pipes and fittings, manufactured from high-density polyethylene (HDPE). Polyethylene Drainage Pipe is a thin wall non-pressure drainage pipe widely used in commercial and industrial construction, for removing wastewater to the appropriate point in the building. Acu-Drain poly pipes can be used for siphonic drainage systems, greasy laboratory waste, general plumbing pipe and stormwater drains. Poly drainage pipe is often joined with EF drainage fittings, which are also available from Acu-Tech.

Poly pipe drainage is commonly used in areas with high rainfall, such as the Pilbara area in W.A. and in city areas, where large concrete or asphalt surfaces collect a lot of rainwater. Because water in drainage pipe systems is not under pressure, drainage pipe walls are much thinner than HDPE pressure pipe. This makes acudrain pipe extremely lightweight and easy to cut. Combined with great service and large stocks, Acu-Tech is able to provide competitive prices, due to being a manufacturer of PE drainage pipe.

The Acu-Drain HDPE pipe system offers the following advantages:

• A complete product range from 50 mm to 315 mm, and larger sizes are be made to order.
• High resistance to chemicals, as well as organic and inorganic solvents.
• Easy to join lengths of pipe with Acu-Drain electrofusion drainage fittings.
• High temperature resistance: HDPE can handle temperatures from -40°c to +95°c.
• Extremely resistant to mechanical stress due to high elasticity, flexibility and impact resistance. This makes HDPE particularly suitable for installation in unstable ground.
• Fully corrosion resistant, acu drain polyethylene pipe is also resistant to build up or scaling due to its smooth inner surface and chemical properties.
• Prefabricated poly pipe spools can be made to order with bends, tees or flanged ends to suit your requirements.
• Comprehensive product and installation training of welding procedures and equipment.
• Sales, hire, repair and calibration of poly welding equipment, particularly for poly drainage pipe welders.
• Manufactured to AS/NZS 4401 “Plastics piping systems for soil and waste discharge (low and high temperature) inside buildings – Polyethylene (PE)” and AS/NZS 5065 “Polyethylene pipes and fittings for drainage and sewerage applications”
