PE-RT/AL/PE-RT Multilayer pipes
PERT/AL/PERT multilayer pipes represent an advanced solution for plumbing and heating systems, designed to ensure reliability, durability and high performance over time. Thanks to their multilayer structure, combining polyethylene with enhanced temperature resistance (PERT) and an aluminium core, they guarantee excellent dimensional stability, pressure resistance and a complete oxygen barrier.
Ideal for the distribution of hot and cold domestic water and for heating systems, PERT/AL/PERT pipes offer ease of installation and full compatibility with press systems, helping to create efficient, safe and long-lasting installations.

Technical features
Description
The multilayer pipe features a 5-layer structure in which a butt-welded aluminium layer is sandwiched between two layers of PE-RT II (advanced high-density polyethylene with enhanced temperature resistance) and bonded to them using two layers of adhesive.
Thanks to this feature, the pipes in the TB00.20 and TB00.90 series represent a perfect combination of the properties of plastic (cross-linked polyethylene with high mechanical strength) and ductile metal (highly flexible aluminium), in which the advantages of PE-RT II are combined with those of aluminium to create a product with extraordinary and wide-ranging qualities.
PE-RT II offers chemical resistance, corrosion resistance, lightness and hygienic properties, and ensures that the surface in contact with the transported fluid is very smooth and polished, thereby reducing pressure drops and preventing scaling.
The presence of aluminum allows the pipe to be modeled very easily in order to significantly speed up installation and prevent the passage of oxygen inside the pipeline. The pipe is suitable for sanitary, heating, cooling and compressed air systems.

Benefits
- Excellent sound insulation: the elasticity of advanced polyethylene (PE-RT II) ensures excellent vibration absorption
- Corrosion resistance
- Lightness: pipes are much lighter than metal pipes
- Hygiene: the materials used are non-toxic and certified for the transport of drinking water
- Hygiene, absence of encrustations and fungi (the extreme smoothness of the internal surface reduces the possibility of obstructions caused by the growth of encrustations and fungi)
- Reduced pressure drops: the smooth and polished internal surface reduces pressure drops and avoids the formation of encrustations
- Flexibility: the presence of aluminum with a high degree of yield allows the tube to be modeled very easily
- Reduced thermal expansion: thermal expansion is limited to 0.026mm / m °C
- Chemical and electrochemical resistance (as PE-RT II is a poor electrical conductor, the pipe is not susceptible to damage caused by stray currents)
- Barrier to light and oxygen: the butt-welded aluminum layer forms an oxygen barrier that promotes the formation of algae, fungi and corrosion
- Ideal for seismic areas thanks to its flexibility and ability to attenuate vibrations
