Superlit GRP pipes - modern pipe systems for infrastructure and industry
Robust, leak-proof and corrosion-resistant - Superlit brand GRP pipes, is a proven solution for sewerage, industrial installations and trenchless systems.
GRP pipe systems - design flexibility, durability and reliability
GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) pipes are a combination of low weight with high strength. They prove their worth in municipal, industrial and hydraulic engineering - both in modern installations and in renovation projects. Thanks to their wide range of diameters and pressure classes, they are easily adapted to individual technical requirements.
Applications for Superlit GRP pipes
Superlite GRP pipes are used in a wide range of applications including underground and above-ground installations, including:
transmission systems drinking and clean water,
domestic, rainwater and industrial sewage systems,
installations drainage and irrigation,
- as protective tubes i casing,
process pipelines in power stations and chemical plants,
projects underwater and marine,
jacking pipelines and in trenchless technologies (relining, microtunnelling).
Range of diameters and lengths of GRP pipes
GRP pipes are available in diameters from DN150 to DN4000 mm, and in other dimensions - on special request.
Standard pipe lengths are 3 m, 6 m and 12 m, which allows adaptation to different design and transport conditions.
GRP material properties and structure
The pipes are manufactured from thermosetting resin, quartz sand and glass fibre, creating lightweight, durable composite material.
Thanks to their structure, GRP pipes retain their flexibility, excellent tightness i resistance to loads over decades of use.
Quality norms and standards
Superlit GRP products are fully compliant with international quality and safety standards, among others:
EN 1796, EN 14364, ISO 10467, ISO 10639, ASTM D3262, D3754, D3517, AWWA C950, AS 3571.1 and other industry requirements.
Soleco provides full technical documentation for each order.
Accessories and complementary items
All the necessary GRP fittings and connectors, including:
arches, flanges, tees, reductions,
and customised solutions custom-designed,
compatible with Superlite systems.
Advantages of Superlit GRP pipes - durability, tightness and operating economy
Superlit GRP pipes are a modern solution for investments requiring high-strength, leak-proof joints i low maintenance costs. Thanks to the technology and composite materials used, these pipes offer numerous advantages over traditional steel, concrete or cast iron pipes.
High service life
Superlit GRP pipes are manufactured in accordance with international quality standards, which ensures their reliable for at least 50 years of operation. Thanks to the durable layer structure and resistance to damage, service and maintenance costs are minimal - even in demanding ground conditions.
Smooth inner surface
The inner layer of Superlite GRP pipes is characterised by a high degree of smoothness, which reduces pressure losses and flow resistance. Hydraulic parameters remain constant throughout the service life, resulting in efficient installation.
Joint tightness
The following are used to join pipes and fittings Full-Face® system connectors, equipped with integrated full-length pasted seals. This design ensures maximum tightness, also at high operating pressures - without the need for additional sealing on site.
Lightweight and easy to install
GRP pipes weigh up to 10 times less than concrete pipes and are significantly lighter than steel and cast iron pipes. As a result, they can be transport tube-in-pipe, use lighter assembly equipment, and the whole installation process is quicker and cheaper - even over longer distances.
Corrosion and chemical resistance
GRP pipes do not corrode as they do not contain metallic materials. They are resistant to a wide pH range, do not conduct electricity, do not require protective coatings and grounding. It is the perfect solution for chemically aggressive, humid and exposed environments.
Hydraulic shock resistance
Superlit GRP pipes have been designed to absorb up to 40% of hydraulic impacts, without having to increase the pressure class. The shock-wave damping properties are significantly better than those of steel or cast-iron pipes, which protects the installation from damage during operation.
