A coordinated HDPE package — pipe, fittings, and specials.
Everything the jointing scope needs in one supply, with pipe matched to partner fittings, fabricated specials on request, and butt-fusion or electrofusion-ready support on site.
PE100 pressure pipe
PE100 pipe in straight lengths and coils for water, industrial, gas, and sewage networks from DN 20 through DN 800 in SDR 11 and SDR 17.
Electrofusion fittings
Electrofusion couplers, reducers, elbows, branch saddles, and tapping tees engineered for high-integrity jointing on water and gas mains.
Butt fusion fittings
ELOFIT butt fusion fittings, fabricated bends, tees, reducers, flange adaptors, and end caps supplied with certifications for submittal.
Fabricated specials
Site-specific fabrications including manifolds, odd-angle bends, large-diameter headers, and transition pieces built to drawing against project lead times.
Gas distribution fittings
Yellow and orange coded HDPE and electrofusion fittings for gas networks, supplied against utility operator approvals where required.
Jointing & QA support
Coordinated supply with fusion welding machines and on-site guidance for butt fusion and electrofusion jointing on critical mains.Long service life, leak-tight joints by design.
PE100 systems are a proven choice for buried and industrial pressure piping, with low lifecycle cost, corrosion-free service, and fully weldable joints on site.

HDPE pressure piping for utility, infrastructure, and industrial networks.
PE100 HDPE is a practical choice where buried services need corrosion-free performance, fused joints, and a long design life under Kuwait's soil, water, and site conditions.
SDR, PN, and wall thickness — the numbers a take-off is built on.
On PE100 pipe carrying water at 20 °C, SDR 11 is rated PN 16 and SDR 17 is rated PN 10. The tables below cover the full SDR ladder and the standard wall thicknesses for the two classes that do most Kuwait utility work.
SDR class to pressure rating (PE100, water, 20 °C)
The rating follows one formula: PN = 2 × MRS ÷ (C × (SDR − 1)), with MRS 10 MPa for PE100 and design coefficient C = 1.25 for water.
| SDR class | Pressure rating | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| SDR 41 | PN 4 | Gravity drains, ducting, casings |
| SDR 33 | PN 5 | Low-pressure drainage, cable duct |
| SDR 26 | PN 6.3 | Gravity sewage, irrigation laterals |
| SDR 21 | PN 8 | Low-pressure distribution |
| SDR 17 | PN 10 | Transmission mains, TSE / irrigation networks |
| SDR 13.6 | PN 12.5 | Distribution with surge allowance |
| SDR 11 | PN 16 | Potable water distribution, compressed air, plant piping |
| SDR 9 | PN 20 | High-pressure process lines |
| SDR 7.4 | PN 25 | Special high-pressure duties |
Ratings are for PE100 on water at 20 °C. The same SDR 11 pipe is PN 12.5 in PE80, and gas networks to ISO 4437 use a higher design coefficient — never transfer PN numbers from a water chart to a gas scope.
Wall thickness by size, SDR 17 and SDR 11
Standard minimum walls to ISO 4427 for the two classes that cover most Kuwait water and utility work. Sizes below 110 mm ship in coils; 110 mm and above come as 12-metre sticks.
| OD (mm) | SDR 17 / PN 10 wall (mm) | SDR 11 / PN 16 wall (mm) | Approx. bore at SDR 11 (mm) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 32 | 2.0 | 3.0 | 26 |
| 63 | 3.8 | 5.8 | 51 |
| 90 | 5.4 | 8.2 | 73 |
| 110 | 6.6 | 10.0 | 90 |
| 160 | 9.5 | 14.6 | 130 |
| 200 | 11.9 | 18.2 | 163 |
| 250 | 14.8 | 22.7 | 204 |
| 315 | 18.7 | 28.6 | 257 |
| 400 | 23.7 | 36.3 | 327 |
| 500 | 29.7 | 45.4 | 409 |
| 630 | 37.4 | 57.2 | 515 |
The full ladder runs 20 through 630 mm; intermediate sizes (75, 125, 140, 180, 225, 280, 355, 450, 560 mm) are available on order. Worked selection examples are in the SDR pressure-rating guide on our blog.
Common HDPE pipe and fitting questions.
Answers for consultants, contractors, and procurement teams sourcing PE100 pipes, electrofusion fittings, and butt fusion systems in Kuwait.
01Do you supply HDPE pipes and electrofusion fittings in Kuwait?
Yes. We supply PE100 HDPE pipes, electrofusion fittings, butt fusion fittings, fabricated fittings, and compatible fusion equipment for water, sewage, gas, irrigation, and industrial networks.
02Can HDPE pipe be used for seawater and brine lines in Kuwait?
Yes. PE100 does not corrode in seawater or brine, so it is the standard material for cooling-water intake and outfall lines, desalination brine discharge, and TSE networks in Kuwait. Specify the SDR from the operating pressure and the summer temperature — SDR 11 is rated 16 bar at 20 °C but 11.5 bar at 40 °C — and joint by butt fusion along the run with electrofusion couplers at tie-ins, so the only flanges and gaskets in the seawater are at the equipment.
03Which brands do you support for HDPE fittings?
Our HDPE range includes FRIATEC and ELOFIT products, with electrofusion and butt fusion options selected against the project specification, pipe SDR, and required approvals.
04Can you support the welding equipment for the same pipe package?
Yes. We can coordinate HDPE pipe and fittings with butt fusion machines, electrofusion machines, hot plates, scraping tools, and site training when the project needs a complete jointing package.
Share a pipe take-off and we'll quote.
