Abrasion resistanceExcellent abrasion resistance ensuring long life.

Chemical resistanceGood resistance to a wide range of chemicals. FlexibilityLD PLUS® pipes are flexible and can be bent at a radius of 14 times diameter. Ease of installationVinidex LD PLUS® pipes are widely used in applications such as agricultural, micro-irri-gation and dripper tube systems due to rapid installation and simple and less frequent jointing. Weathering resistanceVinidex LD PLUS® pipes are stabilised against ultraviolet (UV) light degradation by the inclusion of carbon black in the raw material.
