HDPE Segmental Bend – Reliability and Durability in Drainage Systems

A PEHD segmental bend with a diameter of 315/15° is a key element of Geberit HDPE drainage systems, designed for effective water drainage in various applications. Made of high-quality high-density polyethylene (PE-80), it ensures long-lasting and trouble-free operation even in demanding conditions. A bend angle of 15 degrees allows for precise adaptation to existing infrastructure, minimizing flow losses and ensuring optimal performance.

The bend is designed for both internal installations in buildings and external installations – including underground ones, making it a versatile solution for professionals and end customers. Its solid construction and resistance to mechanical damage guarantee safe use for many years.

Construction and Application

The segmental bend is characterized by plastic connections designed for welding/buttfusion, which ensures the tightness and durability of the connections. The wall thickness of the connections (12.2 mm) and the outer diameter of the pipe (315 mm) guarantee resistance to loads and pressure. The use of PE-80 material provides resistance to a wide range of chemicals – approximately 95% of standard acids and bases – which is particularly important in industrial and laboratory installations. Additionally, this material is resistant to UV radiation, allowing the bend to be used in outdoor installations without fear of degradation caused by sunlight.

The bend finds application in:

• Water drainage from buildings
• Roof drainage (conventional and vacuum)
• Terrain drainage
• Industrial applications
• Laying in concrete

Advantages for the installer and end user

• Durability and reliability: PE-HD material ensures a long service life of the bend, minimizing the need for replacement and repairs.
• Chemical resistance: Resistance to the action of most acids and bases makes the bend ideal for use in harsh chemical conditions.
• Weather resistance: UV resistance allows the bend to be used in outdoor installations without the risk of material degradation.
• Easy installation: Connections designed for welding/buttfusion ensure tight and durable connections, and also facilitate installation.
• Possibility of laying in concrete: The Geberit HDPE system allows direct laying of elements in concrete, which increases the stability of the structure.
• High mechanical strength: PE-HD material is characterized by high tensile strength and resistance to impact and shock.
