Material overview
Pipe selection starts with the specification
Review the required material designation, pressure class, joining method and application before selecting pipe. Send the referenced specification with your RFQ so the quoted product and documentation can be checked against it.
- Confirm the joining method and compatible fittings
- Identify the service fluid and operating conditions
- Include required material testing and documentation
- Confirm stick or coil length for handling and installation
- AWWA C906
- AWWA C901
- ASTM D3035 / F714
- IPS sizing
Supply format
Straight lengths or coils
Smaller diameters can ship coiled, which cuts the number of joints on long runs. Larger diameters ship as straight lengths. The format available for your size is identified on the quotation.
Straight lengths
Standard for larger diameters and for runs fused on site. Length per stick is confirmed with the quotation.
Coils
Available in smaller diameters. Fewer joints over long distances, and easier handling for service lines and irrigation runs.

Sizes & pressure
Pressure rating by dimension ratio
HDPE pressure capacity is set by the dimension ratio (DR) — outside diameter ÷ wall thickness. A lower DR means a thicker wall and a higher pressure rating.
Pressure Rating @ 73°F
Water service| DR | Pressure rating @ 73°F (psi) |
|---|---|
| DR 7 | 333 |
| DR 9 | 250 |
| DR 11 | 200 |
| DR 13.5 | 160 |
| DR 17 | 125 |
| DR 21 | 100 |
| DR 26 | 80 |
Pressure ratings at 73°F for water (PR = 2 × HDS ÷ (DR − 1), PE4710). De-rate for temperature and service per project requirements; pressure class is confirmed at quote.
