Straight coupler for joining 25mm Barrier Pipe
Barrier pipe is a reinforced PE pipe used to protect water supplies where laid in what is commonly known as contaminated ground. It is easily identified by the brown stripe on the blue pipe. Although barrier pipe is defined as 25mm, the OD is actally larger - it may be between 26.2mm and 27.8mm.
Plasson Barrier fittings have been specifically designed to accommodate all sizes between the tolerances stated in BS8588, the British Standard for water pipes in contaminated ground.
Ensuring no contact between the protective aluminium layer in the barrier pipe and the drinking water, you can have confidence the Plasson Barrier fitting will provide a completely secure method to maintain the full protection barrier pipe installations require.
Plasson Barrier fittings have UK Water Reg4 approval, conform to BS6920 and independent test certification for permeation testing in accordance with BS8588 on all the leading brands of barrier pipe, including;
- Radius - Puriton 2
