Compare PE-Xb with PE-Xc Pipes
The PE-Xb technology for making pipes from cross-linked polyethylene using the silane method appeared on the market before the PE-Xc method, which is based on the radiation method. Despite this, pipes made from PE-Xb are cheaper and also more resistant to chlorinated water than PE-Xc pipes. Find out what other advantages there are to PE-Xb technology and which type is better for you.
Sanitary and heating PE-Xb pipes fully meet all requirements for drinking water applications, heating and gas applications. They also easily resist hot chlorinated water for several decades. Compared to PE-Xc they are also cheaper, but flexible, durable and high-quality.
