Re: Attn Geoff: Experience with uPP pipe buried design

Hi Steve,

I do not know the product. I can imagine that the PP is inside the PE as PP suffers from UV degradation. I wouldnt have thought that ASME B31.3 or ASME 31.4 would allow the use of thermoplastics for white oil etc transmission.

AS 2885 only covers steel pipelines.

regards

Geoff

Hi Geoff

greetings from Melbourne. Have you had anything to do with uPP pipe as used in white oil petrol,avgas etc) transmission? I have never heard of it, but it looks a little like PE with a thin pp liner. Any problems with it?

Cheers

Steve
