Description
PERT AL PERT Pipe 16mm Underfloor Heating Pipe
Product Overview:
The 16mm PERT AL PERT Pipe is a five-layer, high-performance multilayer pipe specifically designed for use in underfloor heating, water heating systems, and sanitary systems. It combines the flexibility of PERT (Polyethylene Raised Temperature) with the stability of aluminium for durability, efficiency, and ease of installation.
Key Features:
- Layer Structure:
- Five layers: PERT outer layer, adhesive, aluminium core, adhesive, and PERT inner layer.
- Aluminium core acts as a heat conductor and oxygen barrier, preventing air ingress into the system.
- Dimensions:
- Outer Diameter: 16mm.
- Inner Diameter: 12mm.
- Wall Thickness: 2mm.
- Material Composition:
- PERT Layers: Provide flexibility, corrosion resistance, and high temperature tolerance.
- Aluminium Layer: Ensures stability, shape retention, and minimizes thermal expansion.
- Applications:
- Underfloor Heating Systems: Excellent heat transfer and flexibility for easy installation.
- Water Heating Systems: Handles high temperatures and pressures reliably.
- Sanitary Systems: Suitable for domestic hot and cold water supply.
- Performance:
- Temperature Resistance: Designed to handle high operating temperatures, typically up to 95°C (203°F).
- Pressure Resistance: Handles pressures typical of heating and plumbing systems.
- Oxygen Barrier: Prevents oxidation of system components, extending the lifespan of the system.
- Certifications:
- Often compliant with international standards for safety and quality in plumbing and heating systems.
Advantages:
- Durability: Resistant to scaling, corrosion, and UV exposure.
- Flexibility: Easy to bend and install, reducing the need for additional fittings.
- Efficiency: Excellent thermal conductivity for underfloor heating applications.
- Compatibility: Works seamlessly with press fittings and underfloor heating manifolds.
