Multilayered Pert-Al-Pert Composite Pipe – Offering Flexibility and Strength

Rhinox-Wepit pipes range between 16 mm and 75 mm, considering the diameter. They have five layers, and each layer is created simultaneously during production. This eliminates risks associated with temperature changes and chemical reactions, thereby creating a robust final product. Polyethylene acetate copolymer is used for both the inner and exterior layers. It’s a high-performance and refined PE-RT II generation material that ensures resilience to adverse temperatures (if you compare it to PE).
LONG LIFE

Ensures Longevity

When used as per the specified working pressure and temperature, the pipe ensures a minimum longevity of half a century, i.e., 50 years. So, it offers a reliable and long-standing solution based on your piping requirements.

LONG LIFE

Pressure and Temperature Resistance

The multilayered pipes can withstand 95°C of temperature and 10 bar of working pressure. This ensures excellent performance during demanding scenarios.

LONG LIFE

Abrasion Resistance

Rhinox Wepit pipes have a high resistance to abrasion when exposed to water-containing impurities or high-speed flow.

LONG LIFE

Lowest Linear Expansion

Rhinox pipes have an aluminium layer that contributes to a coefficient of expansion comparable to copper. Moreover, it is eight times lower than the regular plastic pipes. The coefficient of expansion of these pipes is 0.025 mm/mK, which reduces the risks of leaks and other damage.

LONG LIFE

Light and Oxygen Barrier

What the aluminium layer does is block the passage of oxygen, gas, and water vapour. So, it restricts the formation of corrosion in circuits. Additionally, it protects the pipes against UV radiation, which enhances their durability.

LONG LIFE

Resistant to Corrosion

The polyethylene external and internal layers, alongside the dielectric barrier fittings, protect the aluminium layer against electromagnetic, natural, and chemical corrosion.

LONG LIFE

A Hygienic Choice

The multilayered pipes are tested in the laboratories and certified for tap water distribution. That means the pipes do not release unhealthy substances. The water quality is pure.

LONG LIFE

Chemical Resistance

These pipes exhibit high resistance to chemicals. So, they are suitable for applications in building materials like mortar, concrete, and plaster. However, paints, tapes, and sealing compounds containing softening agents shouldn’t be used on the pipes directly.

LONG LIFE

Low Load Losses

The internal polyethylene surface comprises a surface finish that ensures significant reductions in load losses compared to conventional metal pipes. In addition, they do not contain lime deposits or other scaling, which ensures a seamless flow rate.

Rhinox-Wepit System – Outlining the Top Technical Features

Installation that Saves Time and Money

The superior mechanical characteristics make the Wepit multilayer pipes incredible. They are easily bent and help obtain significant advantages over time.

Resistant to Fire

A system should be installed based on national and local standards. With these pipes, the installer can seamlessly proceed with each step as they are resistant to fire.

Resistant to Legionella and Treatments

The Wepit multilayer, compared to the conventional metal pipes, has a higher resistance to chemical compounds. They might undergo treatments like superchlorination shock for different years without any significant damage.

Range of Accessories

An array of accessories and special components complete the system and ensure it meets the system requirements. A few of them include modular manifolds with and without interception valves, manifolds with shut-off valves, coplanar manifolds, fixing plates for sanitary appliances, and in-wall ball valves, to mention a few.

Technologies Used in Forming the Aluminium Pipe

A special method is used to produce the aluminium layer in multilayer pipes. Wepit chooses the method to ensure a uniform thickness across the whole circumference. Besides, it ensures greater resistance to bending and pressure, uniform mechanical properties, greater adhesion values with bonding layers, and a complete barrier to oxygen.

Laser Welding Aluminium

This involves overlapping and laser welding. The laser-welded multilayer pipe ensures the ultimate strength and precision for optimal quality.
