ALL ENDOT POTABLE WATER
PIPE
NOW PRODUCED WITH
PE 4710 - BI-MODAL HDPE RESIN
Endot is pleased to announce effective immediately
all Endot potable water products including EndoPoly and EndoPure
are produced with the newest high performance polyethylene resins
available.
Endot is producing our entire line of NSF Certified (AWWA C901)
pipe using DOW Chemicals Continuum™ bi-modal polyethylene
resins. Continuum resins are classified as PE 4710 and are bi-modal,
a technology that provides a longer lifetime of 100 years (2 x PE
3408), 25% higher pressure ratings, and 4 to 10 times the resistance
to environmental stress cracking.
The chart below demonstrates the improvement
you will see when using Endot pipe in your water system.

At this time, ASTM standard ASTM D3035 and
F714 have been revised and D2737 and D2239 are being revised to
incorporate the high performance properties of bi-modal resin technology.
The process of revising these standards should be complete in a
few months.
Endot has personnel available to meet with
you and explain the new HDPE resins, the changes that are occurring
in the ASTM standards that are used in the industry and how pipe
and tubing made with PE 4710 bi-modal resins can improve your water
system. Please contact us for more information.
