Steel Mesh Reinforced Polyethylene (PE) Pipe
Process:
Steel Mesh Reinforced Polyethylene (PE) pipes is a new kind of pressure pipe, was invented by HTIDC. It is made by combining metal-shaped steel reinforcement with polyethylene through extrusion technology. The steel mesh is made by continuously winding and welding the transverse wires spirally to the longitudinal wires to form a continuous tube-like mesh.
