How? Duratec’s lightweight construction and simple assembly procedures which include: Ease of Handling Duratec is 75% lighter than the equivalent diameter of copper and SCH 40 carbon steel. Quick Removable Connections Threading is not required. All joints have double o-ring seals and can be quickly assembled or disassembled. Easy on-site modifications and repairs can be made. Quick Installation No special training or equip- ment is required to complete a Duratec system. Fewer Fittings Duratec pipe comes in conven- ient 100 ft. and 300 ft. coils eliminating several joints and the need for threading, or soldering. Flexible Yet Rigid Due to its composite struc- ture, Duratec pipe can be easily bent by hand and will maintain its desired shape. This unique feature allows for straight, professional looking installation and eliminates sagging. LOWER OPERATING COSTS Due to Duratec’s advantages over metal systems, it costs you less time, labour and money to keep a Duratec system in optimal condition. Pressure loss means money loss Metal systems can lose pressure due to pin-hole leaks and leakage at connections, all of which result in increased energy costs. Duratec’s high-quality construction, on the other hand, guarantees consistent pressure for years to come. Smooth Interior Less friction means lower pressure drops and higher flow rates. This may allow for smaller pipe sizes to be used. Call or See Main Catalog Section 22A for All Parts & Accessories EXTENDED LIFE Duratec is designed not to rust, scale or pit. Once properly selected for the application and correctly installed, Duratec Airline Systems will provide years of maintenance-free service because they are: Corrosion Resistant Duratec’s tough outer PE-RT (Polyethylene of Raised Temperature) layer protects it against corrosion and deterioration and ensures long service life even in the most aggressive manufacturing environments. Its inner PE-RT layer meets stringent NSF and FDA requirements and is unaffected by inert gases. With a choice of longlast- ing nickel-plated brass fittings or 316 stainless steel adapters, the system provides long-term performance superior to traditional metal piping systems. Clean All Duratec pipe is packaged in cardboard boxes preventing contamination before use. The smooth PE-RT inner layer cannot rust, corrode or form loose scale. Clean air remains clean through- out the life of the system. Safe Duratec’s unique composite construction means that accidental impact or puncture of the pipe results in a safe, ductile mode of failure. Duratec pipe has been third-party tested and certified to stringent OSHA safety requirements, standards that guarantee safety comes first. Duratec pipe and fittings provide top-notch per- formance. Rated for long term continuous operat- ing pressures of 200psi at 73ºF and 160psi at 140ºF, Duratec pipe and fitting assemblies are also capable of sustaining quick burst pressures in excess of 800psi. This built-in safety factor ensures system performance and provides peace of mind for designers and facility managers. • Plastic Pipe Cutter • 5 in 1 Beveling Tool NOTE: 3/8” size Tubing is Not PE-RT material and not FDA compliant. 3/8” size is HDPE material. Duratec is an innovative compressed air and inert gas distribution system ideally suited for the demanding food and beverage industry and hospitality sector. Meeting NSF and FDA requirements, Duratec is a completely clean pipe and fitting system. Designed to be absolutely leak-proof, installed quickly and easily, and maintained cost effectively, Duratec saves you time and money. Traditional metallic compressed air and inert gas systems are a main cause of unnecessary energy use and excessive wear and tear on equipment. The culprits? Corrosion and leakage at pipe joints and fitting connections which often go undetected until they’re discovered during a detailed system audit. Engineered to outperform traditional metal piping systems, Duratec pipe comes in long 100 foot or 300 foot coils, which significantly reduces the number of joints in your system. The Duratec system is secured with durable nickel-plated brass and stainless steel adapter fittings. All fittings feature double o-ring seals to ensure long term joint integrity.
