Nomaco HDPEPIPE1 Hdpe Poly Water Pipe 1 Inch

Product Description

The NOMACO HDPEPIPE1 is a 1-inch high-density polyethylene (HDPE) water pipe manufactured to PE3408 material standards. HDPE pipe in the PE3408 classification offers a balance of pressure capability and flexibility suited for potable water distribution, irrigation, and underground service lines. Licensed plumbers and water system contractors install this pipe in residential and light commercial applications where corrosion resistance, flexibility, and long service life are required. The PE3408 designation indicates a specific cell classification for density, melt index, flexural modulus, tensile strength, and slow crack growth resistance.

This pipe is used in buried water service lines, well water supply runs, agricultural irrigation systems, and geothermal loop fields. Its flexibility compared to rigid PVC makes it a practical choice for direct-bury installations that cross uneven terrain or require a coiled run from a meter pit to a structure. It is compatible with standard HDPE insert fittings, compression fittings, and heat-fusion fittings sized for 1-inch pipe.

Key Features

• PE3408 material classification for reliable pressure and slow crack growth resistance
• 1-inch nominal diameter suitable for residential water service and irrigation mainlines
• Flexible construction allows coiled installation and burial in curved or uneven runs
• Corrosion-resistant HDPE material requires no cathodic protection in buried service
• Compatible with insert, compression, and heat-fusion fittings for 1-inch HDPE pipe

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation pipe for 1-inch HDPE water service and irrigation systems using PE3408-rated components and fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or water system contractor in accordance with local plumbing codes and ASTM D2239 or ASTM D2737 standards where applicable. Shut off and depressurize the water supply before cutting into any existing line. Use fittings and clamps rated for HDPE pipe and the operating pressure of the system. Avoid kinking the pipe during handling and burial, as kinks reduce flow capacity and can create stress fractures over time.
