SABIC Vestolen A 5061R 10000 SABIC Polyethylene, High Density

Product Description

SABIC® Vestolen A 5061R 10000 (black) is a grade, which has a high density and a bimodal distribution of the molecular mass. A universal grade for pipe extrusion which, due to a keen combination of properties, is particularly suitable for drinking water and waste water piping. It is also used for the manufacture of chemical apparatus and containers. This material meets (inter)national standards for use in drinking water and wastewater 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.
