Properties of shaped tubes:

  • Formed Design:
    Profiles are manufactured using special molding processes that allow for the realization of various diameters, wall thicknesses, and cross-sectional shapes.

  • Material Variety:
    Profiles can be made from various materials, including plastics such as PVC, PE, PP, metals such as aluminum or stainless steel, and other materials depending on the application.

  • Application-Specific Properties:
    The properties of profiles are often adapted to the requirements of their application. This can include strength, flexibility, temperature resistance, corrosion resistance and other specific characteristics.

  • Manufacturing Processes:
    Various manufacturing processes such as extrusion, injection molding, welding, or other shaping methods are used depending on the material and desired end product.

Applications of shaped tubes:

  • Construction Industry: Profiles are used in the construction industry for structural and piping systems, including water and sewage pipes, ventilation systems, and structural elements.

  • Industrial Applications: In industrial applications, profiles are used in various processes, including the transport of liquids, gases, and powders.

  • Electrical Industry: Profiles are used for wiring and protecting electrical lines and cables.

  • Automotive Industry: In automotive manufacturing, profiles are used in fuel lines, cooling and heating systems, and other applications.

  • Agriculture: Profiles are used in agriculture for irrigation systems, drainage pipes, and other applications.

  • Chemical Industry: Special profiles with corrosion-resistant properties are used for the transport of chemicals.

Advantages of shaped tubes:

  • Versatility: Profiles can be adapted to various requirements, increasing their range of applications.

  • Lightweight: Many profiles are lightweight compared to traditional materials, which facilitates transport and installation.

  • Cost-Efficiency: Due to their special manufacturing process, profiles can be produced cost-efficiently.

  • Adaptability: Profiles can be manufactured in various shapes and sizes to meet the specific needs of an application.

The selection of a suitable shaped pipe depends on the specific requirements of the application, the ambient conditions and the material properties. It is therefore important to consider the exact product specifications and recommendations of the manufacturer.

Molded pipes made of PVC-U, PE and PP are different types of plastic pipes that are used in various applications.

PVC-U (polyvinyl chloride unplasticized):

  1. Properties: PVC-U is a hard, rigid plastic material with excellent chemical resistance and electrical insulation.

  2. Applications: PVC-U profiles are frequently used in water supply, wastewater disposal, the construction industry, and various industrial applications.

  3. Features: They are lightweight, easy to handle, and offer good resistance to corrosion and chemicals.

PE (polyethylene):

  1. Properties: PE is a flexible plastic with high toughness and excellent resistance to wear and chemical influences.

  2. Applications: PE profiles are often used in gas supply, water supply, wastewater disposal, agriculture, and mining.

  3. Features: These pipes are lightweight, flexible, corrosion-resistant, and exhibit good insulation properties.

PP (polypropylene):

  1. Properties: PP is a versatile plastic with high impact strength, chemical resistance, and good heat resistance.

  2. Applications: PP profiles are used in the chemical industry, food processing, water supply, and other industrial applications.

  3. Features: PP pipes are lightweight, durable, resistant to many chemicals, and exhibit good temperature resistance.

Common features:

  • Lightweight:
    All three materials are lighter compared to traditional materials such as steel or copper, which facilitates transport and installation.

  • Corrosion Resistance:
    PVC-U, PE, and PP are corrosion-resistant and therefore well-suited for use in environments with aggressive media.

  • Easy Installation:
    Profiles made from these plastics are generally easy to handle and install, which reduces labor costs.

It is important to note that the specific properties and applications of these profile pipes can vary depending on the manufacturing process, additives, and the specific requirements of the application area.

The manufacturer’s exact product specifications and recommendations should therefore be taken into account.
