Low Density Straight Coupling
Low-Density Straight Coupling fitting is used within rural, horticultural, commercial, and domestic irrigation applications. It is tough and durable, having been manufactured from impact-resistant glass fibre-reinforced nylon. Offering flexibility in cool conditions, this low-density fitting is tested and proven to fit all New Zealand LDPE pipes.
Independent testing was carried out to prove that the fittings would suit a wide range of pipe in service. Each fitting size was subjected to the following tests at 20°C:
- Resistance to pull-out of assembled joints
- Internal pressure test on assembled joints
- Resistance to leaking when subject to bending
This test was conducted on RXP LD, EnduroFlex™, Alkathene™ and Rural B-Class Australian pipe. Also suitable for a wider range of flexible pipe and hoses. The fittings were also tested and meet the requirements for potable water applications to AS/NZS 4020.
