[QUOTE="Exfarmer, post: 8119023, member: 1951"] Looking further there is a plethora of “plastic” pipes. With probably up to 8 different materials used and then there are different thickness of wall to accomodate different pressure requirements. The main pipe used today in farming is MDPE which replaced the black alkathene use last century . While similar it is not the same and has I think a thinner wall for the same pressure class. This gives a higher flow rate for the same outer diameTer. Liners are freely available for both. It can be confused again as some of the old imperial pipes are not quite the same diameter and there will still be some imperial class B pipes around which again have thinner walls again. [/QUOTE]
