The plastic pipe industry has grown rapidly in recent years. More and more gas stations are replacing steel pipes with a new material: gas station composite hoses. But why have these new double-layer composite oil pipelines become so popular? Now, let’s explore the advantages of HDPE underground hoses.
First: Strong Property Advantages of Gas Station Composite Hoses
Gas station HDPE pipes have exceptional gas barrier properties. They outperform PA hoses by 100 times and PE or PP pipes by 10,000 times. What’s more, their EVOH layer offers excellent mechanical strength, wear resistance, and cold resistance. It also has high surface strength and effectively blocks gases, aromas, and solvents.
Traditional Steel Pipes: Drawbacks to Avoid
Traditional gas station oil pipes are steel pipes, but underground conditions are harsh. Over time, steel tubes corrode, leading to oil leaks. This not only causes financial losses but also pollutes the soil. Worse, steel pipe systems are complex—replacing them requires large-scale projects that take lots of time and money.
HDPE Composite Pipes: A Better Solution
Gas station UPP pipes solve these problems. They use composite materials, with each pipe featuring 7 layers. Special materials give them strong corrosion and oil resistance, letting them last over 10 years underground. For added safety, HDPE petrol pipe systems use a two-layer structure: a larger HDPE pipe covers a smaller one. This design makes oil delivery safer and extends the HDPE gas station pipe’s service life.
