  2. Cross-linked polyethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-linked_polyethylene

    A cross-linked polyethylene (PEX) pipe. Cross-linked polyethylene, commonly abbreviated PEX, XPE or XLPE, is a form of polyethylene with cross-links.It is used predominantly in building services pipework systems, hydronic radiant heating and cooling systems, domestic water piping, insulation for high tension (high voltage) electrical cables, and baby play mats.

  3. Plastic pipework - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plastic_pipework

    Plastic Pipe lengths manufactured in Australia by extruding HDPE material.. Plastic pipe is a tubular section, or hollow cylinder, made of plastic.It is usually, but not necessarily, of circular cross-section, used mainly to convey substances which can flow—liquids and gases (fluids), slurries, powders and masses of small solids.

  4. Piping and plumbing fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piping_and_plumbing_fitting

    A common type of this style fitting is a "hex bushing" with a hex head for installation with a pipe wrench. A double-tapped bushing is more compact than a reducer but not as flexible. While a double-tapped bushing has a more minor female thread concentric to a larger male thread (and thus couples a smaller male end to a larger female), a ...

  5. Polyethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyethylene

    HDPE pipe on site during installation in outback Western Australia. The white outer layer, Acu-Therm, is co-extruded to provide a reduction of thermal heating. HDPE is defined by a density of greater or equal to 0.941 g/cm 3. HDPE has a low degree of branching.

  6. Lang factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lang_factor

    A typical multiplier for a new unit within a refinery would be in the range of 5.0. When the purchase price of all the pumps, heat exchangers, pressure vessels, and other process equipment are multiplied by 5.0, a rough estimate of the total installed cost of the plant, including equipment, materials, construction, and engineering will be achieved.

  7. High-density polyethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-density_polyethylene

    HDPE is known for its high strength-to-density ratio. [4] The density of HDPE ranges from 930 to 970 kg/m 3. [5] Although the density of HDPE is only marginally higher than that of low-density polyethylene, HDPE has little branching, giving it stronger intermolecular forces and tensile strength (38 MPa versus 21 MPa) than LDPE. [6]

  8. Electron-beam processing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron-beam_processing

    PEX piping will outlast copper and has performance characteristics that are superior to copper in many ways. [ 11 ] Foam is also produced using electron-beam processing to produce high-quality, fine-celled, aesthetically pleasing product.

  9. International Plumbing Code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Plumbing_Code

    The IPC is the most widely used plumbing code in the United States and is also used as the basis for the plumbing code of several other countries [citation needed].Wide adoptions are important as they help reduce manufacturer and end-user costs by allowing the use of materials across a wide user base, thus allowing economies of scale in the production of materials used in construction.
