Advantages of Nord PVC Drilling PVC pipes
Corrosion resistance
Immune to corrosion, unlike metal pipes in wet and underground environments.
Lightweight
Easy to handle and install on deep drilling sites.
Smooth surface
Low head loss, resistance to clogging and optimised flow rate.
Chemical inertness
Does not alter the quality or taste of transported water.
Long service life
Excellent longevity even in aggressive environments and difficult underground conditions.
Mechanical strength
Design adapted to static and dynamic loads in deep hydraulic installations.
Design for hydraulic installations
Nord PVC Drilling PVC pipes are designed to meet the specific requirements of underground hydraulic installations:
Adapted pressures
Calibrated test pressures for different depths and borehole configurations.
Ground loads
Resistance to static and dynamic loads exerted by the surrounding soil.
Equipment compatibility
Compatible with standard drilling equipment and pumping systems.
Perfect watertightness
Solvent-welded assembly system ensuring total sealing along the entire column.
