James Hardie FRC pipes performance is second to none, with excellent working pressure, fire resistance, acoustic properties and durability attributes.
Working Pressure The maximum pressure for FRC™ pipes in suspended applications is 0.25MPa (25m head).
Fire Resistance FRC™ pipes that penetrate fire resistance rated walls or concrete floors, achieve fire resistance levels up to and including 4 hours.
Acoustic Properties Because of the excellent acoustic properties of fibre reinforced concrete pipe, the use of FRC™ pipes in suspended applications significantly reduces hydraulic noise emitted from pipeline flow.
Durability The autoclaved curing process undertaken during manufacture enhances the resistance of FRC™ pipes to corrosive environments.
Hydraulic Performance A large number of formulae have been developed to assist in hydraulic calculations to determine the flow rate that a pipeline can carry.
