Kopos RHDPE pipe 50×3.5 mm blue socketed, length 6 m

Kopos RHDPE pipe 50×3.5 mm blue socketed, length 6 m is a rigid high-density polyethylene conduit designed for electrical and cable protection applications. The pipe has a 50 mm external diameter and a 3.5 mm wall thickness, supplied in a 6-meter length with socketed ends for straightforward push-fit connections. The blue color and smooth external surface facilitate identification and handling during installation, while the RHDPE material provides impact resistance and long-term durability for indoor and underground use.

Advantages

The RHDPE construction offers good mechanical strength and resistance to chemical exposure, abrasion and moisture, making the pipe suitable for a variety of installation environments. Socketed ends simplify onsite jointing and reduce the need for additional coupling components. The 6 m length balances ease of handling with fewer joints per run, and the 3.5 mm wall provides adequate stiffness while retaining some flexibility for routing around obstacles.

Suitable for

• Electrical conduit runs in residential, commercial and industrial buildings
• Protection of telecommunications and data cables
• Underground cable ducts and service trenches
• Indoor concealed installations and false floors

Key specifications

• Material: rigid high-density polyethylene (RHDPE)
• External diameter: 50 mm
• Wall thickness: 3.5 mm
• Length: 6 m
• End type: socketed for push-fit connections
• Color: blue
• Application environment: suitable for indoor and underground installations

How to use

Cut the pipe to the required length using an appropriate pipe cutter or saw, ensuring square ends before assembly. Align socketed ends and insert plain ends fully into sockets for a secure push-fit connection; use appropriate lubricant if specified by local practice to ease jointing. Support the conduit at regular intervals according to installation standards, and protect exposed ends during backfilling or building work. For bends or changes in direction, use suitable fittings or gentle bends within the pipe's flexibility limits to avoid kinking.

Usage recommendations

Follow local electrical and building codes for conduit routing, burial depth and mechanical protection. Verify compatibility of associated fittings and seals with RHDPE material, and avoid exposure to open flame or solvents not recommended for polyethylene. Store pipes horizontally on a stable surface and avoid prolonged UV exposure if stored outdoors prior to installation.
