Product Description
SABIC® Vestolen A 4062R 10000 (black) is a grade which has a medium density and a bimodal distribution of the molecular mass. Due to its special properties this grade is highly suitable for use in gas and drinking water piping, in particular - on account of its very high flexibility - for ring lines (up to a diameter of 90 mm) and for irrigation pipes. This material meets (inter)national standards for use in gas and drinking water piping. MRS class ISO 12162 MPa = 8.0 (PE 80).

The product mentioned herein is in particular not tested and therefore not validated for use in pharmaceutical/medical applications.
