Vulcathene pipe is now colour coded

Durapipe, Vulcathene, pipe, chemical

Durapipe’s Vulcathene chemical drainage pipework system is now supplied with four violet strips so that it can easily be identified as Vulcathene. This colour-code identification is according to BS 1710 (basic identification colours and colour-code identification) and identifies the pipe as potentially carrying acid and other chemical waste.

Available in sizes from 38 to 152 mm, Vulcathene can be jointed with mechanical joints that can be demounted or with Enfusion for welded joints.
