• A direct impact on the welding quality (example :
melting point of material is 140°C, that of-B material is
160°C) - welding conditions become different that the
welding quality is easy to grasp. This is due to the fact
that kinds of crystalline materials used in the PP blend
mix have varying melting degrees.

TAHWEEL FASER COMPOSITE PIPES
Tahweel Multi pipe range includes multilayer PPR pipes reinforced by an
intermediate layer of special fibers. Suitable for hot and cold potable water,
Tahweel Multi pipe can be joined with the whole range of fittings using the
traditional welding techniques; it finds application in the following fields:
ADVANTAGES
• Reduced Linear Thermal Expansion
• Reduced quantity of pipe supports
• Higher Mechanical Stability
• Reduced Weight
• Increased water flow rate
• Suitable for drinking water applications
• High Impact Resistance
• Resistance to certain chemicals
• Thermal Insulation
• High Stability at high temperatures
• Low pressure Loss
• Corrosion Resistance
• Easy Installation

Tahweel Multi Plus for outdoor Applications
Tahweel Expands its product range with the new Tahweel Multi Plus pipe with a
UV Layer added to its Multi Pipe Range. Due to its external UV-Resistant layer,
this pipe is suitable for the installation of supply pipes in the outdoor
environments such as: drinking water systems, irrigation systems, heating &
cooling water systems.
• UV Resistant
• %75 Less Thermal Expansion
• No Special Tools Required for Installation
• Heat preservative and energy saving
• Wide Range
• No bacteria and moss reproduction within the
pipes
Areas of Application
Water tank connection, Hot and Cold water installations, Outside wall
installations, Roof installations, Boiler connection, House connection stations,
Water distribution, Floor level distribution, Pipe network for rainwater systems,
Pipelines for agricultural and horticultural use, Industrial pipeline networks.

Chemical Resistance
Polypropylene has a very high chemical resistance. The following table lists the
chemical resistance of PP-r pipe and fittings according to ISO 10358. Since
chemical resistance depends on factors such as chemical composition,
concentration and temperature, the table below gives chemical resistance for
three different temperatures and different concentrations.

Cold Water Risers
There is no need for expansion joint as there will be no
linear expansion for Tahweel cold water pipes. Vertical
Support is necessary like all other piping system.
Ceiling Walls
During the planning and laying of visible pipes for hot
water on ceiling or walls, besides taking into account
the support intervals, special attention must be given to
the linear expansion due to temperature. This will also
prevent sagging and snaking of pipe lines.
Fixed and Sliding supports secure external pipelines to
the masonry structure of the building to prevent the
movements generated by thermal expansion, totally or
partially.

Thermal insulation for hot &
cold water pipes
Thaweel Pipes PN 20 standard pipes offer excellent
insulation properties compared to other pipe systems,
as illustrated in the table below, where a low 0.24W /
mK values means that in cold water pipe lines,
formation of condensation on the external pipe surfaces
has been virtually eliminated.

Pressure Test
After installing Tahweel piping system, it is necessary to
go through a pressure test. Unlike metal pipes, Tahweel
like all other plastic pipe systems, has to follow different
pressure test procedure owing to their mechanical
properties of expansion when subject to pressure,
UFNQFSBUVSFEJGGFSFODFBOEDPFGmDJFOUPGFYQBOTJPO
A change in temperature of 10 K corresponds to a
pressure change of 0.5-1.0 bar. Thus, the test medium
shall as far as possible, be kept at a constant
temperature throughout the test.
Test Procedure (According to DIN 1988 Part 2 or BS
