Known for their unique features like corrosion resistance, smooth finish, malleability and flexibility, these are widely used for special pipeline purpose, underground & open plumbing fitting, solar water heater pipeline, chemical & acid pipelines, etc. These are procured from reliable vendors of the market who design and manufacture these using supreme class raw materials. Clients can avail these Kitec Composite Pipes at reasonable prices.Specifications: Kitec is an aluminum and polyethylene composite that combines the best features of both materials to form a pipe that is light strong and does not support corrosion. By combining the two materials along with adhesive layers,KiTEC pipe avoids the unaccepted thermal expansion and deformation of plastic pipe,. At the same time, it retains the flexibility, frost resistance and ease of use associated with plastic. Properties and Salient Features :- Malleable : The unique features of KiTEC is its malleability, KiTEC is easily firmed into curves, can be set by hand and may require only bending springs when forming tight bends down to radius equivalent to 5 times the diameter of pipe. Unlike plastic plumbing pipes, KiTEC permanently holds whatever shape it is formed into and does not need additional clips or brackets to retain the shape of bends or curves, KiTEC piping systems do not corrode, Will never pit or develop pin holes from aggressive water leading premature failure no sale builds up to reduce flew, soluble encrustant in flow areas and flow coefficients as the pipes age, Hygiene :- KiTEC is hygienic, Non-Toxic, rust -free sand climates grown=th of micro-organism, This avoids contamination of water, KiTEC pipes have passed all the test of pipe for potable water in accidence with British Standard BS 6920 by the British Water Quality Center .Flame/Smoke Rating : KiTEC pipe has a flame spread of 5 and a smoke Development of 5 as per ULC-S102.2, The ratings meet most building code requirement allowing for the use of KiTEC in high-rise construction as well as in return air plenum's and vertical shafts. Permeation : KiTEC's aluminum core acts as permeation barrier against entry of contaminations and limits oxygen permeation to virtually zero. Permeation is the molecular transport of chemicals from the soil surrounding the pipe, through the pipe wall and into fluid being carried within.. permeating may have adverse effects on the piping system, the conveyed fluid or both . KiTEC is widely used for the transmission and distribution of portable water providing a second line of defense for the plumbing system. UV Resistance and Opacity :- KiTEC pipes do not have and effect of UV radiation when laid exposed. There is not light transmission thought the wall of KiTEC pipe. THERMAL PROPERTIES :- Thermal Expansion :- KiTEC has a low coefficient of linear expansion similar to copper tubing, and is far superior to alternate plastic pipe (expansion / contraction rate about 10% of plastic pipe). This eliminates the need of installation and the concern about abrading pipe due to constant movement as a result of temperature changes, Straight runs are always attainable with KiTEC pipe. Coefficient of thermal expansion for KiTEC pipe is : 25x10-6' K. Low expansion coefficient is due to tie layer which eliminates the differential expansion of plastic and metal.Resistance to Freezing :- KiTEC piping can be used up to -40'C for medium temperature when the medium is flowing continuously,In case the medium freeze. KiTEC pipe can withstand more than five freezing and thawing cycles. thawing can be dine using a hot air blowgun, hot water injection and electric blanket or heating cable method, an Open flame, torch or electric current should no be used to thaw the pipe.Thermal Insulation :- KiTEC is having thermal Conductivity of 0.43 watt/(m'K. ) KiTEC composite pipes provide an increased resistance to the onset of condensation or pipe sweating in a plumbing application. in case of hot water piping the insulation requirement is only 50% of the same required conventional for metal pipes. CHEMICAL RESISTANCE Resists at 20'C as wel as 60'C : Acid, Aldehyde, Ethylene Glycol, Bleach, Corrosion Inhibitors, Detergents Foodstuff, Petrol, Diesel, Fuel Oils, Veg/ Minerals Oils.\Resists at Ambient temperature. Performance yet to be ascertained at elevated temperature. Beverages, Insecticides, Ketone's, Oxidation, agent paints, Salts Surfactants/Soaps.Chlorine Resistance : KiTEC pipe has much better resistance to chlorine attack than other non-composite pipe, because of the aluminum middle layer, The outer layer is not exposed to chloirine, therefore there is no method for chlorine attack on the counter layer, KiTEC pipes are an excellent choice for continues re-circulation plumbing applications.
