Product Description
EX3B (GM5010T2) is a black, high molecular weight high density polyethylene copolymer, developed as a general purpose resin for use in pressure & nonpressure pipes. A minimum service life of 50 years is achievable under appropriate pressure & temperature conditions. EX3B (GM5010T2) offers excellent chemical resistance & environment stress crack resistance and will provide excellent resistance to the effects of ultra-violet light exposure in outdoor applications.
EX3B (GM5010T2) is suitable for extrusion into a full range of pipe & fitting sizes, where high density, resins are required.
EX3B (GM5010T2) is suitable for use in the transport of a wide range of fluids for industrial, rural & mining applications, including potable water. Suitability for use in any application should be determined by appropriate performance testing.

* EX3B (GM5010T2) is suitable for food contact.
