TERAKAN pipe combines the latest achievements in production of plastic materials and tried-and-tested manufacturing technology. TERAKAN pipe structure is double layered with profiled exterior and smooth inner surface, resembling it's predecessor, the MAPIKAN pipe.

TERAKAN pipes are constructed entirely PP-B materials (polypropylene blockcopolymer) This material has been developed specifically for non-pressure pipes with high ring stiffness and is the latest trend in construction of sewage and drainage pipes.

Advantages of TERAKAN pipe systems

• durability - life expectancy over 100 years
• compliance with EN standards - SIST EN 13476-3
• simple and safe handling and installation
• superb hydraulic properties
• superb chemical durability
• superb mechanical properties over wide temperature range - good shock resistance at low temperatures, great at high temperatures
• high temperature durability - resistant to temperature damage up to 600C, in short bursts even up to 900C
• highly abrasion resistant - abrasive particles cause reduced wear-and-tear
• reduced weight of the pipe equates to easier and safer handling and installation
• environmentally friendly solution - used material is 100% recyclable, absolute water-tightness of entire system prevents any damage to the environment
• complete solution - all system elements (pipes, fittings, shafts) are made of identical material
• flexibility during treatment and joining - all classic joining, treatment and welding methods apply
• low overall system costs
• pipe flexibility - can handle large deformations without structural damage, ground movement also tolerated

TERRAKAN - Dimensions

Terakan pipes are made in accordance with SIST EN 13476-3 standard and are classified by inner DN/ID diameter, ranging from 200mm to 1000mm

When is it recommendable to use TERAKAN SN 16 kN/m²?

In city centres:

• because of large traffic and other stresses
• because they offer maximum safety to design engineers, project managers and investors alike
• because it is difficult to ensure optimal installation conditions, due to number of pre-existing installations
• because the cost of potential repairs greatly outweighs initial investment costs

Small coverage:

• in combination with traffic and other stresses
• for transverse connections on highways

Large coverage:

• landfill and dams, where coverage exceeds 30m
• at high coverage in combination with ground water and traffic encumbrance

Everywhere, where the combination of stress, ground conditions and installation conditions demands it.
