David Moss range of VHAR Pipes and Fittings, represents a leap forward in abrasion resistivity, the VHAR (Very High Abrasion Resistance) product has been developed in conjunction with key asset owners in the global mining industry in order to tackle the problems associated with service life when considering abrasive and/or course slurry’s traveling through HDPE pipe lines. Featuring never before seen abrasion resistance levels of 2.4X those associated with standard PE100 grade materials and 1.6x those associated with Damos Wear-Tuff, the VHAR product is a versatile product that offers unmatched durability, allowing the service life to be doubled or in some cases tripled.
Damos VHAR is a fully weldable product, and can be butt fusion welded with any butt fusion welding machine; a full range of VHAR fittings is also available which are produced locally in Australia by Damos and include Stub Flanges, Billet reducing tees, Billet eccentric tees and billet equal tees, elbows, sweep bends and concentric and eccentric reducers.
Unmatched Abrasion Resistance
Mining operations involve the transportation of abrasive materials such as ores, rocks, and slurry. Standard polyethylene pipes often fail to withstand the intense abrasion. This attribute makes VHAR suitable for applications where abrasion resistance is critical.
Cost-efficiency
VHAR remains a cost-effective solutions. Its longevity reduced maintenance requirements, and minimal downtime contribute to long-term cost saving.
VHAR displays a great ability to withstand crack formation or propagation even at extreme conditions and temperatures.
Environmental Guardian
Say good-bye to microplastic worries. S999PC is designed to minimize wear and tear, preventing the release of microplastic into our precious ecosystems.
Extrudability in current extrusion machine
Very High molecular weight normally cannot be extruded. However, with our polymer design. VHAR exhibits good processability opening up a whole new realm of possibilities for harsh applications.
Compatability with existing PE100 infrastructure
Minimise the need for extensive system upgrades, making
it an attractive option for retrofitting and expanding
existing pipelines.
VHAR displays 2.4 times less thickness loss of wall mass v traditional PE100 grade material.
