PolyPipe® FM Pipe Advantages

FM Approved HDPE piping from PolyPipe® offers advantages that other piping products cannot deliver:

  • Superior design life for many years of trouble-free service
  • Higher flow coefficients due to the smooth inner wall surface of the pipe
  • Outstanding chemical and abrasion resistance assures long-term performance
  • Heat-fused, fully restrained joints eliminate leaks

Proven in the field, HDPE piping materials will deliver excellent underground fire water service with a surge tolerance not found in other piping materials. PolyPipe® PW FM Approved Pipe is manufactured in accordance with AWWA C-906 and is tested and certified by Factory Mutual for use in underground firewater service.

Stalks lengths available in 40’ or 50’ lengths and available with permanent red stripe upon request.
