PE Fire Hydrant Pipelines

Jain fire hydrant pipes Pipe is a fire resistant (FR) PE piping system for application in underground mines and fire hydrant pipelines, fire fighting system where fire safety is a concern. State of art testing facility is available in house (flame chamber from Altas, USA) for conducting the fire retardant test. Manufactured from basic PE raw material blended with fire retardant chemical compound. The function of FR chemical is to improve Limiting Oxygen Index (LOI). The limiting oxygen index is a measure of the percentage of oxygen that has to be present to support combustion of the plastic - the higher the LOI the lower the flammability.

Jain FR PE Pipe significantly reduces the spread of flame in a fire. As a result of excellent localized surface charring properties, carbonaceous char forms on the product after being exposed to flames which effectively protects the pipe and its contents from ignition.
