Abstract
Polyethylene pipes are successful worldwide due to the superior performance (Flexibility, light weight, lifetime, tighten joint) for water and sewerage supply. However according to our ISO standard concerned Polyethylene pipes we have to use solid wall pipe with too thick against for internal pressure. The major job challenge involved finding new polyethylene solution with best high modulus and flexibility such as superior performance of polyethylene for world customers. In achieving this, polyethylene resin with glass fiber by spiral cross winding method take us new.
Our technical team should be considered a better option (characteristics of basic) not only those tests but also it was extra performance with proof of some analysis in Japan.

Introduction
PE pipes have been successfully used for water distribution pipelines around world for many years. Those pipes are generally made with solid walls because of strong deflection of the pipe during terms of service. This is necessary to need over hundred mm thickness in case high internal pressure especially for large diameter pipe. This paper provides technical characteristics and discusses solid wall pipe applications with Polyethylene and Glass fiber. It combined high E-modulus and many benefits of polyethylene. HIPPA as High stiffness Polyethylene Pipes association established 1987 are operated by DAINIPPON PLASTICS, NIPPON HAWER, TORIIKASEI,
PRIME POLYMER and MITSUI CHEMICALS INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTS in Japan. We should know what we are those basically characteristics concerned Plastic piping systems made from glass fiber reinforced polyethylene (PE-GF) for water supply and for drainage and sewerage.
