King PipeGrade® is PE 4710 – PE 100 material, which is compliant to ASTM 3350 as a standard material. ASTM 3350/4710 PE100 is completely compatible and 100% interchangeable for use in applications that presently use ASTM 3603 – PE 80 material. King PipeGrade® is FDA and NSF Standard 14 certified and complies with ANSI/NSF Standard 61 to be used in potable water piping systems

PE 4710- PE 100 tends to have a higher hydrostatic design basis (HDB) than other resins but most significantly is the notched tensile/slow crack PENT test which is > 10,000 hours vs. 100-200 hours for others.

50 – 100 years service life per ISO CRS 10 MPa @ 20º C.
