Maximum wear resistance: designed to withstand extreme abrasion up to 270 MPa.
High-Performance Co-Extruded Pipelines for Dredging and Mining Applications
Advanced co-extruded pipelines anti-abrasive layers and friction reducer solutions — designed to maximize efficiency, reduce wear, and minimize environmental impact.
PIPELINES ENGINEERED FOR DURABILITY AND EFFICIENCY
In the dredging and mining industries, pipes are critical resources. The Kiasma Group designs co-extruded HDPE systems that combine superior material technology with advanced engineering to ensure greater efficiency, longer life, and reduced operating costs.
Each pipe features a specialized dual-layer co-extruded structure:
KNN33_4.0 ®AR12 – Abrasion-resistant: features a white inner layer designed to ensure maximum resistance to mechanical wear, guaranteeing structural integrity when exposed to high-impact abrasive flows.
KNN33_4.0 ®3AR12 – Abrasion + Friction Reduction An advanced evolution that integrates superior abrasion resistance with specific tribological properties, designed to minimize pressure losses and optimize slurry and gravel transport.
Key Technical Advantages:
Advanced Co-extrusion: Combines specialized inner liners with an HDPE outer shell, offering a lightweight profile for safer handling and easier installation without compromising durability.
Optimized Performance: The Kiasma Group technology minimizes energy consumption by reducing pump load and friction losses, maintaining peak flow efficiency.
Extreme Protection: Engineered to resist chemical and mechanical wear (up to 270 MPa), ensuring maximum performance even with highly abrasive materials.
Available in diameters from Ø110 mm to Ø1200 mm, Kiasma Group pipes are suitable for any dredging or mining condition and are fully compatible with flotation systems for high-efficiency integrated solutions.
Kiasma® Group pipelines offer the perfect balance of strength, efficiency and sustainability, redefining performance in the mining and dredging industries.
