In today's infrastructure systems, the durability and longevity of pipelines largely depend on the quality of the raw materials used. In applications such as water and gas transportation, PE100 pipe-grade materials stand out by offering both long-term reliability and safety. In this article, we’ll examine the technical properties, usage advantages, and the product range offered by Minerva Polymer.
What is PE100 Pipe Grade?
PE100 is a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) grade developed specifically for pressure pipe systems. The number "100" refers to its minimum required strength of 10 MPa (100 bar), meaning it can withstand high pressure while maintaining structural integrity under environmental stress.
Technical Properties of PE100 Pipe Materials
High internal pressure resistance
Long service life (50+ years)
Excellent chemical resistance
Resistance to environmental stress cracking
Suitable for electrofusion and butt welding
Safe for potable water use (food contact approved)
Common Applications
Drinking water distribution systems
Natural gas pipelines
Wastewater systems
Industrial liquid transport
Agricultural irrigation lines
