For projects that require a pipe that can withstand higher temperatures, ISCO offers PlatinumStripe® 1800 Series PE-RT by Performance Pipe!

It significantly expands the operation window for polyethylene pipes with pressure ratings up to 180°F. We provide a full range of pipe sizes, pressure capabilities, molded and fabricated fittings to customize a solution for your project. PE-RT pipe systems follow the same fusion parameters as standard PE4710 and native backfill material from a trench (sandless installation) can be used for shallow, non-traffic applications. This product can be used for high-temperature industrial, mining, oil and gas gathering applications.
