Alathon 8005M-5

Description

Alathon 8005M-5 is a high molecular weight, high density polyethylene copolymer with broad, bimodal molecular weight distribution. Typical applications are non-pressure-rated pipes produced by corrugation or profile wall extrusion. Alathon 8005M-5 should not be used in smooth wall pipes that will contain fluids at pressures above ambient. Alathon 8005M-5 meets the following standard:
