Centennial Plastics gasm01101250500 Mdpe Gas Pipe Sdr 11

Product Description

The CENTENNIAL PLASTICS gasm01101250500 is a medium-density polyethylene gas distribution pipe designed for underground natural gas and propane service lines. Built to IPS SDR 11 dimensional standards from PE 2708 resin, it delivers a consistent wall thickness ratio that handles the working pressures typical of residential and light commercial gas distribution systems. The pipe ships in a 500-foot coil, making it well suited for longer runs with fewer joints. Licensed plumbers and gas fitters install this pipe where a flexible, corrosion-resistant alternative to steel or copper is required by code or site conditions.

This pipe is used in residential and light commercial gas service installations, primarily buried underground. Its MDPE composition resists soil corrosion, electrolytic attack, and moisture intrusion, which makes it a practical choice for direct-burial gas laterals from meter sets to appliances or for distribution mains in small subdivision systems. The 500-foot coil length reduces the number of mechanical connections needed on longer straight runs, lowering leak-point count and labor time.

Key Features

• PE 2708 resin construction provides consistent material performance for gas service applications
• IPS SDR 11 wall ratio supports standard working pressure requirements for gas distribution
• 500-foot coil length minimizes field joints on extended runs
• Plain PE end style is compatible with standard electrofusion and butt-fusion joining equipment
• Meets ASTM D-2513 standard for thermoplastic gas pressure pipe
• NSF-gas listed and compliant with NSF Standard 14 and the Uniform Plumbing Code

Compatibility

Designed for underground gas distribution service where MDPE IPS SDR 11 pipe is specified. Compatible with standard electrofusion fittings and butt-fusion equipment rated for PE 2708 pipe at IPS 1-1/4 inch nominal size.

Installation Notes

Installation of gas distribution piping must be performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter in accordance with local codes, IFGC requirements, and applicable utility standards. Shut off and verify zero pressure at the gas source before making any connections or transitions. Use only fusion joining methods or fittings rated for PE gas pipe — do not use solvent cement or threaded mechanical fittings not approved for gas service PE pipe. Minimum burial depth requirements vary by jurisdiction; confirm local requirements before trenching.
