AVAILABLE PRESSURE RATINGS OF PE100 POLYETHYLENE PIPE:
PN4 (SDR41) – Max rating of 40m of Head pressure = 400Kpa = 4 Bar = 58 psi.
PN6.3 (SDR26) – Max rating of 63m of Head pressure = 630Kpa = 6.3 Bar = 92 psi.
PN8 (SDR21) – Max rating of 80m of Head pressure = 800Kpa = 8 Bar = 117psi.
PN10 (SDR17) – Max rating of 100m of Head pressure = 1000Kpa = 10 Bar = 147psi.
PN12.5 (SDR13.6) – Max rating of 125m of Head pressure = 1250Kpa = 12.5 Bar = 183psi.
PN16 (SDR11) – Max rating of 160m of Head pressure = 1600Kpa = 16 Bar = 235psi.
PN20 (SDR9) – Max rating of 200m of Head pressure = 2000Kpa = 20 Bar = 290psi.
A HANDY TIP: If you want to know the estimated wall thickness of your pipe divide the outside pipe diameter by the SDR. (For example 355mm PN8 pipe is 355 divided by 21 = 16.9mm wall thickness)
