09857018 · 2018-01-02 ·

The polymeric pipes reinforced with a metal casing are used for transporting oil and gas, acids, alkali products, drinking water and industrial water, and also in the transportation of aggressive and neutral pulps. A metal-containing polymeric reinforced pipe includes a welded metal casing and a polymeric matrix having an amorphous-phase-based molecular structure. The metal-containing polymeric reinforced pipe is produced by extrusion moulding with simultaneous feeding of a polymer melt and the reinforcing metal casing into the mould cavity, followed by intensive cooling of the internal and external surfaces of the pipe being moulded. The invention increases the quality and endurance limit in the radial direction of the metal-containing polymeric reinforced pipe, productivity of the process for manufacturing the pipe, and also the strength and technological effectiveness of a pipeline constructed from the pipes produced.

Modular fitting

A fitting (1) of weldable, thermoplastic material of a modular structure, comprising a number of elements (2, 3, 9, 10, 11, 12), at least one main element (2, 9) and at least one connecting element (3, 10, 11, 12), characterized in that the elements (2, 3, 9, 10, 11, 12) have end faces (4, 5) at right angles to the center axis (8), and the elements (2, 3, 9, 10, 11, 12) are welded to one another exclusively at the end faces (4, 5).

Reinforced thermoplastic pipe

A pipe intended to be mounted in a fluid circuit of an aircraft, the pipe comprising a tube and two connection ends, the tube being made of a thermoplastic material and having a cylindrical shape, the tube defining an internal surface, intended to be in contact with the fluid, and an external surface opposite the internal surface, the pipe comprising at least one reinforcement band extending longitudinally on the external surface of a longitudinal portion of the tube, so as to form a reinforced portion of the tube.
