We wanted to do an interview with an engineering company to find out the crucial points to use our pipes for their projects. Therefore, we have contacted the in Germany well known engineering office Müller GmbH Co. KG in Grünberg, Hessen. On a wednesday morning, I met Dipl.-Ing. Maik Ginsberg in his office to have […]
Why do you use Krah pipes? An interview with a civil engineer Read Post »
Krah pipes are often used for pressure applications, whether the requested pipe material is a standard High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) or Polyethylene reinforced with glass fibres (PE-GF). For the flow-characteristic and pressure loss the surface quality is essential, since the surface-roughness affects the friction between fluid and pipe wall. Polyethylene pipes (HDPE and PE-GF) provide

Krah pipes, made of Polyethylene PE100 in typical black colour, provide a perfect weather and UV resistance. If a Polyethylene pipeline is planned for an application in exposed conditions the external loads and influences have to be considered for the design. Typical applications are:• Mining industry• Sewage and water pipelines• Hydropower plants (headrace, penstock)• Industrial
