Subject:4" HDPE Stick Pipe Inquiry
Danny,
Sorry for the delay in this response to your questions regarding the 4” installation.
Stick pipe is normally only used where reels are not feasible for layout or size/weight
considerations. For instance, 8” and above with a thicker SDR. These are usually in 40’ sections.
The added issues are
Increased fusing with increases the cost per foot enormously
If the area is limited forcing fusing on the run that can increase the cost as well. The best
way is to have enough area to fuse a long section. So in essence we would be
manufacturing our own “reel” anyway.
Each Fuse creates a “bead” inside the conduit that can impede pulling. Especially if the
plan is to pull inner-duct at some point.
I have to run now but I will get cost information for you. I would think that any savings they
might find in material would be more than eaten up in additional costs of installation.
