Water Distribution
In many markets, aging or insufficient infrastructure to distribute clean water is a risk to both human health and industrial advancement. Pumps use demand a large amount of energy to move water through the grid and treatment facilities and they must operate efficiently 24/7/365 each year. Ductile iron pipes corrode and leak costing municipalities billions in repair and loss of product. Our portfolio of materials for water distribution has revolutionized products ranging from pumps to faucets and pipes, helping manufacturers meet industry goals of increasing efficiency, decreasing system cost, managing corrosion and ensuring regulatory compliance.
PERFORMANCE CONSIDERATIONS:
- Long-term hydrolytic stability
- Resistance to chlorine and other water disinfectants
- Superior fatigue and wear resistance
- Corrosion resistance
- Fluctuating pressure and ‘water hammer’ endurance
- Good dimensional stability
- Lead-free solutions
POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS:
- Pumps (housings, impellers)
- Pipes
- Fittings/Couplings
- Valves
- Thermostatic mixing valves
- Faucets
- Hot Water Systems (hydroblocks, heat exchangers)
