Polyguard pipe is constructed from 2 layers of flexible polyethylene adhered to a layer of aluminium providing the impermeable barrier to the ingress of contaminants. The inner layer of polyethylene carries the water and the outer layer provides protection for the aluminium layer from damage. Brown stripes on the outer layer ensure the pipework is easily identifiable.
The Polyguard range is completed by an extensive selection of specialist fittings, each incorporating a special insert designed to ensure a perfect seal. Tees, elbow and both standard and transition couplings are available for use with each of the three Polyguard pipe sizes:
25mm
32mm
63mm
25 and 32mm pipe is available in 50m coils whilst 63mm is available in 25m, 50m coils and 6m straight lengths.
