Industry Standard PVC Pipes | General irrigation, moderate climates | PVC material, UV Resistance: 5000 hours (ASTM G154) ▼ Heat Resistance: 60°C (ISO 75) | Cost-effective, widely available. Lightweight for easy installation. | Lower UV resistance (▲1.6x less than HDPE Advanced). Less durable in extreme heat. |
Our Base HDPE Pipes | Standard agriculture, moderate use | HDPE material, UV Resistance: 8000 hours (ASTM G154) Heat Resistance: 80°C (ISO 75) | Superior UV resistance (▲1.6x vs PVC). Non-toxic, FDA-compliant. | Slightly higher cost than PVC. Stiffer than rubber hoses for flexible setups. |
Our Advanced HDPE Pipes | Harsh outdoor/industrial environments | HDPE + UV additives, UV Resistance: 10,000 hours (ASTM G154) ▲ Heat Resistance: 95°C (ISO 75) | Best UV resistance (▲2x vs PVC). Customizable blue stripe for ID. 50% lighter than metal. | Highest upfront cost. Requires专业安装 for high-pressure systems. |
Polypropylene Pipes | Lightweight, temporary setups | PP material, UV Resistance: 4000 hours (ASTM G154) Flexural Strength: 45 MPa (ISO 178) | Extremely lightweight (▲30% lighter than HDPE). Chemical-resistant. | Lower UV resistance (▲2x less than HDPE Advanced). Shorter lifespan outdoors. |
Metal Pipes (Steel/Aluminum) | High-pressure industrial systems | Steel/Aluminum, Pressure Rating: 150 psi (ASTM A370) Corrosion Resistance: Zinc-coated | Highest pressure tolerance (▲3x vs HDPE). Long lifespan in corrosive environments. | Heavy (▲2x heavier than HDPE). Rigid, difficult to install in complex terrain. |
Rubber Hoses (Nitrile) | Flexible, temporary irrigation | Nitrile rubber, Flex Life: 10,000 cycles (ASTM D1329) Chemical Resistance: ASTM D471 | Extreme flexibility for uneven terrain. Resistant to oil/chemicals. | Low UV resistance (▲3.3x less than HDPE Advanced). Short lifespan (2–3 years). |
