These connections have different properties, and are therefore classified according to the
way in which they are assembled as follows:
a) Non-rigid, removable
Connections which can be disconnected after assembly.
c) Tension-resistant
Connections which cannot be disconnected by tensional forces.
(Butt weld, electroweld sleeve, flange, screwed connection with locking ring)
d) Non-tension-resistant
Connections which can be disconnected by tensional forces.
(Ring-seal socket, expansion socket, screw-threaded joint)

Butt welding
Use
Welding is the easiest jointing method, providing the many advantageous benefits of
prefabrication; HDPE needs no other component in order to be welded.
It can be used in all circumstances where prefabrication is used on site or in the
workshop.
The essential conditions for a perfect weld are:
• Cleanliness of the welding plate and the parts which are to be welded.
• A correct welding plate temperature.
A simple and reliable • The correct pressure for jointing the parts.
connection • The parts to be welded must be cut square <) 90°.
Butt welding takes up little space. The edge of the weld does not obstruct the pipe,
leaving its internal cross-section virtually unchanged. Even quite complicated distribution
parts can be assembled in a small space, without wastage of material, because lengths of
pipe or elbow sections can be easily reused through butt welding.
Allowance for butt welds The allowance for butt welds is approx. as big as the wall thickness of the pipe

Connection properties
b) rigid, non removable
c) tension-resistant
Use
On-site welding, conversion, additional installations, repairs. The small outside diameter
provides a great advantage.
Conventional assembly, on the nesting principle, made for easy use. The joint obtained is
simple, quick and reliable.
A short, simple and reliable
connection The heating and melting zone is divided into two fields, as there are no electrical resistances
in the centre of the sleeve. This provides a very satisfactory safety factor.
Also the ends of the pipes are not heated, the zones remain effectively cold, and provide
further reinforcement, thus cancelling out shrinkage of the pipe.
The pressure required for welding is obtained from the shrinking effect of the sleeve when it
is heated, and is evenly distributed over the entire weld. This shrinkage has a compensating
60
effect on pipe diameter measurement tolerances.
The electrical resistance wires will not corrode. Once the weld has been made they are
Ø 40 – 160
entirely covered by PE.
The use of original Geberit equipement, especially tempered Geberit HDPE pipes, are
recommended for correct welding.
Electrical sleeves can be made to slide by removing the central stop ring, thus making
system conversion and repair work easier.

Connection properties
a) non-rigid, removable
d) non-tension-resistant
Use
Ring-seal socket joints can be used to provide a connection between various prefabricated
parts for simpler assembly.
Assembly
May be used either vertically or horizontally. The small overall dimensions provide an
advantage where space is limited. Can easily be assembled or released even where access
is difficult.
Ring-seal sockets are provided with a yellow protection cap to prevent the ingress of debris
during installation.
Protection cap
Assembly instructions are the same for both ring-seal sockets and screw-threaded joints,
the sleeve lengths are the same for corresponding diameters. The effective sleeve length,
i. e. the measurement – X – from the O-ring to the base of the socket governs the
maximum length of pipe which can be connected by individual joints.
The pipe must be fully inserted into the socket, because the socket does not act as an
expander. Owing to the pipe thickness and the low thermal conductivity of HDPE, the
socket seal has very satisfactory resistance to heat and no shrinkage of the O-ring occurs.
The O-ring has a round seat regardless of pipe movements. The O-ring remains fixed in
the seat and is always in contact with the pipe.
B.500.000/252
Length «X» varies with the diameter Ideal fitting is obtained by chamfering the pipe
end to approximately 15°, lubricating it with
soft soap, Silicone or Vaseline. Do not use
mineral oil or grease which can damage the
rubber seal.

Screw-threaded joint
Connection properties
a) non-rigid, removable
d) non-tension-resistant
Use
Screw-threaded joints are used for assembly of various prefabricated parts when it is
necessary to easily dismantle and also as the connection to sink traps and shower trays.

2. Washer
3. Seal
4. Thread
Use
Wherever there is the possibility that a pipe can be pulled out of a screw-threaded joint by
axial tensile forces a flange bushing must be used to ensure that the connection will resist
these forces. It is also recommended that a screw-threaded joint with flange bushing should
be used when installing in floors or slabs, where the length of pipe between two
connections (elbows, branches or sleeves) is longer than 2 metres.

Expansion socket
Connection properties
a) non-rigid, removable
d) non-tension-resistant
Use
Different conditions apply for underground installations. For this application field see page
48.
Installation
Can be used either vertically or horizontally. One advantage is the depth of the sleeve
which makes the assembly of downpipes and mains easier, allowing both vertical and
horizontal corrections (e.g. in level, and in the precise positioning of the direction of
branches and elbows).
A firm anchor bracket must always be located behind the expansion socket to avoid any
movement of the socket in the event of expansion or contraction.
The special shape of the seal allows the pipe to slide within the socket during expansion
and contraction, ensuring that the connection remains perfectly watertight even under
heavy hydraulic load.
The following conditions are important to ensure perfect and easy assembly of the
sleeve:
Example: Insertion depth in an 1. Chamfering the inserted pipe end to approximate <)15°.
ambient temperature of 20°C
(Vertical assembly).
2. Check the scale on the outer surface of the expansion socket for insertion depth.
3. Mark the correct insertion depth on the pipe.
4. Lubricate the pipe end well with soft soap, Silicone or Vaseline.
N.B. Do not use oil or grease which can damage the rubber seal.
For more information see pages 22, 28, 43.
A special expansion socket with stainless steel protection for the rubber seal can be used
for heavy duty industrial and laboratory applications.

Use
The Geberit HDPE contraction sleeve is a convenient connection possibility for
most uneven, irregular or special materials.
A common additional application method is also the connection from HDPE to
different clay ware apparatus, e. g. for Laboratory sinks.
Installation
The enclosed rubber ring will be placed over the pipe end. Make sure that the
rubber ring will be placed in the middle of the sleeve length (h2). Then push the
contraction sleeve over the pipe end. Apply low heat (approx. 125°C) evenly
around the socket, moving the blow lamp constantly.
The sleeve will now shrink and give an absolute watertight and strong
connection. Afterwards fix the contraction sleeve pipe with an anchor bracket.

Rigid installation

B Embedding in concrete
Basically Geberit HDPE material absorbs within itself thermal movement due to its
high elasticity.
However, in the case of large diameters (e.g. 315 mm) the forces «P» (resulting
from expansion and contraction) are considerable. They must be absorbed
by the embedded fixpoints alone, since cement/concrete will not adhere to HDPE
pipework.
Under no circumstances
should a ring seal or expansion socket
be embedded in concrete.

Important with such an installation is that the foot valve and strainer are not
blocked.
Foot valve and strainer of the suction pipeline should be kept free from debris,

PE is the perfect material for drainage systems from an ecological point of view.
It has a long life span, no toxic gases rises from incineration (e. g. hydrochloric
acid HCL from PVC) during disposal. It consumes much smaller quantities
of energy during fabrication process and transport than steel, cast iron or
copper pipes.

The density of various polyethylene types can be 910 – 960 kg/m3. The Geberit type
at up to 955 kg/m3, is of the hard quality and has increased durability properties.
HDPE is lighter than water, which is beneficial particularly with regard to transportation
and
installation.
8
Resistance to cold
When Geberit HDPE parts are filled with water and then freeze, they stretch elastically
as the ice expands. Once the ice melts, they resume their original shape, remaining
completely intact and undamaged.
6
Flexibility
The flexibility of the piping material can be the main criterion in certain buildings or on
bridges, especially when pipes have to pass through expansion joints or are in
buildings, which are subject to traffic vibration.
This describes the working properties of the pipe and at the same time gives
information on the molecular weight, which is crucial for a number of raw material
properties. The smaller the melt-flow index, the higher the molecular weight and thus
the pipe’s resistance to stress corrosion.
warmed through when heat loaded for a short period. Heat loss is about 90% less,
for instance, than a similar copper pipe.
Resistance to abrasion
Drainage systems are increasingly becoming hidden refuse chutes. A pipe’s resistance
to abrasion is a particularly important factor in branch pipes, soil stacks and ground
pipes. HDPE is highly resistant to abrasion; its extra thick walls offer additional
2
protection.
61

Geberit HDPE Installati 1.12.03 1/12/03 2:50 pm Page 62
8
Heat expansion 0,17 mm/m · K
Heat expansion of HDPE is relatively high. As a rule of thumb, for every 50°C increase
in temperature, an expansion of 10 mm of linear meter of pipe can be anticipated.
9
Resistance to hot water
Geberit HDPE can be safely used as waste pipe with no mechanical load, up to 80°C.
Temperatures of up to 100°C for short periods (e.g. surges of steam) are permissible.
10
Resistance to impact
Geberit HDPE is unbreakable at room temperature. Its resistance to impact is very
high even at extremely low temperatures (down to approx. –40°C) and thus meets the
requirements for outlet pipes.
11
Condensate
Geberit HDPE is a poor conductor of heat. No condensate should form during short
periods of undercooling.
12
Behaviour in fire
Plastics are inflammable. However, the classification of plastics according to the usual
fire test for construction materials does not permit a valid statement on the behaviour
of plastic construction parts in the event of a fire.
13
Tightness
Many years of experience with welding HDPE-Pipes, have shown that the butt welds
do not give any problems as the welding parts are circular on the inside and do not
add to the normal risk of blocking.
Noise
14
HDPE is a soft material with a low E-modulus. HDPE limits solid-borne conduction,
but airborne noise should be insulated. This can be done by means of the duct wall,
HDPE Silent or Geberit Isol.
Chemical resistance
Because of its paraffinic structure, Geberit HDPE is highly resistant to chemicals.
15
Its resistance can be summarized briefly as follows: Geberit HDPE is insoluble in all
inorganic and organic solutions at 20°C. Geberit HDPE is only soluble in aliphatic and
aromatic carbons and their chlorinating products at over 90°C. The material will be
attacked by heavily oxidized media (conc. HN03, conc. H2 S04) when exposed over
long periods at room temperature.

Non-conductive
1
Sealing material
Although the chemical resistance of the seal does not equal that of HDPE, there is no
risk of the seal being destroyed, because the rubber ring is installed under com-
pression on all sides and therefore cannot swell. In addition, the wetting factor of the
rubber ring in the joint is very low. Many years of experience have shown that the
sealing material can endure even the harshest conditions.
NB: Such conditions do not occur in drainage pipes.
Free halogens (chlorine, bromine etc.) cause halogenised polyethylene and hydrogen
7
Solar radiation
Geberit HDPE pipes are protected against ageing and embrittlement caused by UV
6
Welding temperature
Thermoplasts are processed with a high level of energy efficiency. The temperatures
required are relatively low in comparison with metals. The welding temperature for
HDPE is approximately 230°C. Simple tools allow for easy processing.
4
Non-toxic
Plastics are well suited for use in the food industry as packaging material, containers,
bottles etc. Geberit HDPE pipes are used for milk transportation lines in mountain
areas and in the food canning and packing industry.
3
Scope of use
Geberit HDPE pipes are designed for drainage systems. Their use in low-pressure
areas (swimming pools, transportation lines etc.) is subject to a maximum pressure
load of 15 m Water Column (1,5 bar) and a temperature of 30°C (10 years).
There is also a certain range of moulded fittings.

down process.
When hot water flows through a streched pipe or the pipe is heated up
11
by doing a welding joint, e.g. with an electroweld sleeve coupling, the
expanded molecules relax and return to their normal state. The pipe
becomes shorter.
12
Effects of annealing of Geberit HDPE
pipes The safest way of avoiding the inevitable heat shortening of dimensions after
heat load in the plastic pipe is to take preventative measures (Tempering)
during manufacture. Geberit pipes are therefore stored in a hot water bath
after manufacture, this allows the expanded molecules to relax and return to
their normal state = No stresses on Geberit pipes.
