50mm Blue MDPE Water Pipe x 50mtr

50mm MDPE - Blue Water Pipe 50 metre coils

Also known as 50mm Alkathene pipe, 50mm water pipe and 50mm Potable Water Pipe, MDPE pipe is generally used for the supply of cold water. Resitant to most chemicals, fungi and algae, this lightweight and robust pipe stays firm underground and is a lot safer to use than in days gone by where lead and steel pipes were used for transporting drinking water!

If the water has to travel between 100 - 800 metres, 50mm MDPE can be used for the water suppy to properties in most areas of the UK. It is worth double-checking this though with the local authorities in case they have a different criteria.

This product is made from medium density polyethene which can withstand large changes in water pressure and is fully certified and BSI approved (Kitemarked) to BS EN 12201-2:2011 + A1:2013. 12.5 bar is the maximum operating pressure for this pipe.

50mm is the outside diameter of the pipe and it has a wall thickness of 4.6mm. 50mtr coil of pipe measures approximately 1600 x 220mm and weighs 35kg.

An underground supply network can be created by using compatible push-fit and compression fittings. Please note, 50mm pipe sleeves/supports must always be used.
